What does Armani Privé - Rouge Malachite smell like?

Pink pepper and sage open with a light spice. In the heart, jasmine sambac absolute, ylang-ylang, tuberose and orange blossom lead, reading dense, powdery and creamy. In the base, Amber Xtreme™, benzoin and cashmere wood sweeten it and give it an oriental warmth.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall, winter and spring, and it leans towards evenings and nights out. Most voters read it as feminine, though it wears fine as a unisex scent. Prada La Femme Intense and Korloff Majestic Tuberose have a close profile.
