What does Emporio Armani - Diamonds Black Carat smell like?

Freesia gives a floral opening and rose leads the heart. In the base, benzoin and vanilla sweeten the scent and add an oriental, woody warmth. A synthetic, powdery side sits in the background.

Its longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Most voters recommend spring and fall, and daily wear and the office get the most votes among occasions. Most voters read it as feminine. It has been discontinued. Its profile is close to Gucci Rush and Chanel Allure (Eau de Parfum).
