I hate its opening as there is something harsh and synthetic citruses, after it settles down it turns into a soapy scent with moderate projection in the first few hours.

Perfect for day, it evokes the Italian heat, but is also classy enough for nighttime, though in an intimate low light setting like a dinner, I would opt for something smoother. I you would meet the person that you are interested in and would make a decent approach over a very expensive dinner, I think that you should try this. I find this to be the case with Guerlain's famous Vetiver, for example, where the initial lemon has a strange and slightly dirty smell, perhaps due to the tobacco flower in the bass. In fact, this whole composition takes me back to the 80s, when I was still young, and makes me think of old people.The scent can be worn dressed up or down and would make a great office scent as well as a great vacation scent (i. The sandalwood/spice notes are subtle and lasting, and retain some citrus freshness even after the top notes have gone. From what I can tell from memory, this one is more citric and fresh than the 1980s version, but that's the way most classic fragrances have gone. I think this fragrance it will be a must have always in my closet, because in my opinion this is the scent for a man. Have both the old and new versions - in a side by side test, they did a pretty good job with the new one.

In my opinion, it can be unwise to make the bass notes of a citrus fragrance too strong - the result can sometimes contaminate the initial effect. It's classy, sophisticated, cool, player like, clean, manly, WELL PUT TOGETHER, without being stuffy and old. It opens with neroli and citrus and then just turns extremely sour and uninviting, a combination of the extinguishing opening notes polluted by a tinge of a terrible clove note.

I get pretty good performance with about 5 sprays, lasts 6-8 hours with a little lingering on clothes after that. This is one of the first few fragrances my dad owns and thanks to him, Armani pour Homme is absolutely lemony delicious to me. My father had a bottle of this and would wear it quite regularly and it reminds me a lot of him from the early 90s.

Even though it has all kind of citrus fruits as top notes and is fresh, thanks to warm notes like nutmeg, cinnamon and other "spice-like" notes to me it smells more like a fall/winter and cold night fragrance.These pulse points have a temperature superior to the rest of the body, and this will help the fragrance to evaporate slower. Projection is moderate and longevity is around 5-6 hours as long as you manage to get some on your clothing as well. Guys 30-40ish can still wear something interesting and fun (hell, so can guys 55+, for that matter).

Honestly, this is the best Armani Fragrance, hands down, in my opinion, and one of the best all around summer go to's ever. Only reviews that feature the label "Verified Review" have been checked to ensure that the author actually used or purchased the product. This one starts of VERY citrusy, so much it could almost hurt your nose, while still pleasant if you don't over-inhale. It's still a light fragrance but the magic for me is back as the previous formulation just seemed to be way off and too short lasting. I used to wear this in the late eighties and even then apart from saying ARMANI in the label it did very little for me.The performance isn't that great, but I'm using a vintage mini splash, no doubt some of the pazzazz has disappeared. a perfect scent for office wear I think, and most definitely I think for the summer or spring, or a warm climate. But you have to go quite heavy here I sparyed one on the neck left side and one on the neck right side. I feel that I'm a bit to young for this fragrance(I'm 27), but maybe it's because of the memory of my grandfather.
