I’ve just tried it and found it interesting (beyond being yet another Code flanker). The opening is fresh with a watery touch, yet retains that characteristic ambered quality of the Codes. At that point, it reminded me of Dior Homme Eau. Clary sage takes centre stage in the heart, alongside citrus and orange blossom. It is indeed an aromatic fougère; intense spices are felt in the base, while the sweet flowers lend a very delicate woodland aura. Sincerely, it’s very good and of high quality. Excellent longevity and a nice trail. The most appealing aspect is its sweet and spicy dry-down.
Launched in March 2016, it’s a soft yet long-lasting scent reminiscent of bubblegum or jelly sweets, bringing to mind the classic Jacques Bogart Story Blue. The only drawback is that the latter costs infinitely less and feels slightly more synthetic, but in my opinion, the final result is identical. If you enjoy this type of fragrance, I’d go straight for the Jacques Bogart.
The Code line stands out for its mystery and danger; while this fragrance is fresher, it hasn’t disappointed. It follows the same path as its successful predecessors. Recommended for daily wear.
Don’t be fooled by the word ‘Colonia’, as it doesn’t perform like a true cologne. It lasts around eight hours without over-applying, projects well, and has a fantastic trail. The opening is typical, but the development reveals lovely nuances. It recalls the first Code and finishes with an excellent dry-down. It doesn’t lose its freshness or sweetness. It’s very modern, born of current trends, but well executed. It feels like a refined Invictus, without harsh notes, more elegant and of better quality. Perfect for spring and summer evenings. 7.5/10.
Don’t be fooled by the word ‘Cologne’, because it doesn’t perform like one. It lasts about eight hours without over-applying, projects quite well and has a lovely trail. The opening is typical, but the development has nice nuances. It recalls the first Code and finishes with an excellent dry-down. It doesn’t lose freshness or sweetness. It is very modern, a child of current trends, but well executed. It seems like a corrected Invictus, without harsh notes, more elegant and of better quality. Perfect for spring and summer nights. 7.5/10.
Colognes usually evoke the moment of showering, but this simulates fresh breath after brushing your teeth. At first, I was scared by that mouthwash hit, looking for another Armani fragrance, and I started playing around with the tester. Suddenly, I remembered when at school the teacher made us throw away our Boomer mint chewing gum, and I would stick it under the desk to smell it afterwards. That texture of sweet mint with the aftertaste of diluted SevenUP by saliva is what the synthetic notes of this strange flanker in the Code line do. Its projection and longevity are as firm as its bottle, which is rare for a cologne. Ideal for those of us who are Boomer junkies.
Normally, colognes evoke the moment of a shower or shaving, but this one is more ingenious, mimicking the fresh breath after brushing your teeth. I must confess that at first, that burst of mouthwash horrified me. I was looking for another Armani fragrance and started playing around with the tester. Suddenly, I remembered when I was at school and the teacher made us spit out Boomer mint chewing gum, of which I was a bit of a junkie. I’d stick it under my desk and, at the end of the lesson, peel it off to smell it before putting it back in my mouth. That washed-out, sugary mint texture with hints of diluted SevenUP from saliva is what the synthetic notes of amberwood and isoamyl salicylate reproduce in this strange flanker of the very heavy Code line. Projection and longevity are as solid as its bottle, so it’s surprising that it’s a cologne. For those who ruminate on Boomer and/or Doublemint.
It is exactly the same as Versace Eros; I cannot distinguish them at all. I cannot judge its trail because I tried it on a very small sample, but honestly, I have noticed no difference whatsoever from Eros.
It smells very similar to Homem Zagas or Potence by Natura. It has good longevity and a slight sweetness with a mentholated touch. It’s ideal for everyday wear, modern and casual. Don’t be fooled by the name ‘Cologne’; it’s an EDT with good projection and lasting power.
Armani Code Cologne tried to fight Sauvage, but to me it smells like cheap white musk that gives me a headache. It’s as if the creator ignored the penal code by using it with premeditation and malice. Although I can tolerate ambroxan with baking soda, this scent is beyond my understanding: neither refined nor tempting. Everything else in the brief dries up due to that olfactory storm no one mentions, making it seem like a failure of taste compared to Profumo.
It’s a very rich perfume. Although the name says ‘cologne’, the performance is superior, almost like an EDP. It lasts about 8 hours on my skin and projects well for 2 or 3 hours; afterwards the projection drops but it’s still noticeable until the very end. Good performance. It doesn’t seem equal to Versace’s Eros to me (I have both, batch 2015); I can’t find any similarity. In my opinion, Code Colonia is more subtle and versatile than Eros. I recommend it.
It’s a very rich fragrance… Although it’s labelled as a cologne, its performance is superior, akin to an EDP. It lasts about 8 hours on my skin and projects well for 2 or 3 hours; afterwards, the projection fades but the scent remains noticeable until almost the end. Good performance. I’ve read that it’s identical to Versace Eros, but I own both (the 2015 Eros) and can’t find any similarity. In my opinion, Armani Code Cologne is more subtle and versatile than Eros. I recommend it.
I’m completely smitten with this perfume (13 August 2019). I tried it and I can’t stop smelling my arm. It’s a cologne that smells like an Eau de Parfum <3. I'd love to know what other perfume smells so similar. They say it's the same as Versace's Eros, but they don't resemble each other in the slightest!
An exquisite delight, pure beauty. It doesn’t resemble Versace’s Eros at all. It’s a super psycho scent, ideal for spring and summer, and could even work in autumn as it doesn’t smell like a cologne, but rather a very rich parfum. Highly recommended 10 for Armani.
I’m a fan of the Code line, and this flanker doesn’t disappoint. It feels a little ‘plastic’ and isn’t a tribute to originality, but it carries the DNA of the original with tonka bean as a key note. What’s interesting is that, although marketed as a cologne, it’s more concentrated than the original Eau de Toilette and performs better: around six to seven hours with moderate projection for the first two to two and a half hours. It loses a bit of elegance compared to the original or the Absolu, but gains in versatility for many situations, clothes, and seasons, excluding late autumn and winter. Scent: 7.75 Versatility: 8.5 Longevity: 8 Trail: 8.
I’m a fan of the Code line and this flanker also hooks me. It feels a bit ‘plastic’ and isn’t a journey into originality, but it has the DNA of the original with the tonka bean as a base, and I like it. The cool thing is that, although they say it’s a cologne, it’s an EDT that performs better than the original: 6-7 hours, with moderate projection for the first 2.5 hours. It loses a bit on elegance compared to the absolute, but gains in versatility for almost every situation, except late autumn and winter. Scent: 7.75 | Versatility: 8.5 | Longevity: 8 | Sillage: 8.
Wow! This is the only one in my collection that suits my girlfriend 100%. On my skin, it lasts 7 hours and in summer it’s a projection bomb. My advice: max 4 sprays this season. For spring, go up to 6; it’s ideal for semi-formal events. The sillage is incredible and the compliments never stop. It deserves a 10.
Wow! This is the only one in my collection that my girlfriend absolutely loves. On my skin, it lasts seven hours and projects like a bomb in summer, so I’d recommend a maximum of four sprays during this season. For spring, six sprays are ideal, especially for formal or semi-formal events; it leaves an incredible and striking trail. I’ve received so many compliments, so it truly deserves the ten.
It’s the base of the original Armani Code, mixed with an Eros Versace EDT and a touch of Dior Eau de Toilette for men, minus the iris. It lasts over five hours, but the sweetness can become a bit heavy in summer.
After trying it over several days and at different times… here’s my verdict. Opening: Citrusy and potent, with a bergamot that takes the lead and a background pepper giving it a spicy touch; for me, this is a success because, being a summer scent, it needs a strong opening projection. Heart: A white floral note becomes clear, namely neroli and salicylate, which give a distinct twist to the ripe fruit like banana, yet blend well with the base of tonka bean. Base: Perfect sweet notes between tonka bean and heliotrope, giving it a powdery floral touch that’s very noticeable on summer nights. For me, it’s exactly what I was looking for: a summer perfume that lasts into the evening and fits any occasion without being intrusive, suitable for both formal and informal settings. Code Colonia brings it all together, though it can be a bit heavy for daytime activities.
I just bought this blind. At first, it comes out strong with citrus and alcohol, but within seconds it shifts to something sweet and pleasant, featuring a gorgeous note of orange or tangerine. It retains the DNA of the original and is very similar to Yves Saint Laurent’s Electrique, but it’s not as heavy or cloying. I wouldn’t recommend it for hot days, but it’s perfect for evening wear; it smells very seductive and is well-liked. It lasts a long time and projects at a medium-to-high level. Highly recommended.
Not particularly spectacular. It smells citrusy with a mentholated, spicy twist, yet very clean, almost soapy. It’s super fresh; I think that blend of soft menthol, banana, pepper, and soap is what makes it special. There’s not much more to say. Scent: 7.5/10. Longevity: 6/10. Projection: 4/10. Sillage: 5/10. Value for money: 5/10. Blind buy: 6.5/10. Season: warm climates/summer.
I’ve never been a fan of the Armani Code line, but this one caught me by surprise. It’s a fresh take that saves you from the cloying, unpleasant vanilla found in the others. Perfect for summer and spring, it’s incredibly versatile. A blind buy that turned out to be a steal, even though I’m not usually a fan of Blue de Chanel; I actually think this is far superior. It could do with a bit more longevity, but that’s just the way it is.
I bought it this afternoon after testing it several times. It reminds me a lot of the original Code but is a few points fresher, ideal for summer nights rather than day, though that’s relative. I was surprised that the longevity seems like an EDP and not an EDT. I would buy it again when these 125ml run out.
Armani Code Cologne is the forgotten flanker of the Code line. Little is said about it. Personally, it doesn’t stand out much, but everyone who has smelled it says it’s pleasant, which I agree with. It has a sweet citrus freshness with a mentholated touch, drying down to an air far removed from the classic Code. Ideal for spring and summer (I’d doubt it above 27-30°C). It’s quite versatile: daily wear, office, casual outings, or dates in spring/summer afternoons. Longevity between 5-7 hours. I’d recommend it for those 20 and up; it has a young adult air. Pros: generally cheaper than other versions, if you like the Code this is its fresher version, it’s not mass-produced and generally always liked. Cons: smells good without more, it brings no novelty.
A total discovery for me. An absolute wonder without holding back. A fragrance with the DNA of Armani Code boosted by a fresh, citrusy touch that turns it into an elegant, subtle, and clean juice. This is class, sobriety, and seduction on all sides; women love it. It adds fantastic performance: projects clearly for 3 hours and lasts over 8 hours without effort. Ideal all year round except extreme heat for that small touch of sweetness. If you have the chance, don’t hesitate. Armani Code Cologne is one of those undervalued perfumes because it’s a bit away from the masses.
Pleasant and elegant. Around 6 hours of longevity, projection to the shoulders; it’s discreet but rich.
White floral, citrusy, and sweet, without being cloying. A generic proposal, fitting the line of a Lacoste Blanc, yet not synthetic.
A great perfume; it retains the DNA of the classic Code but is versatile for everyday wear (not in extreme heat). I own the discontinued Code Sport and now understand why it was replaced by this in 2017; it feels like the same vibe, with the same longevity and outstanding sillage for casual fragrances. Here, it’s 20-39 degrees all year, making the heavy classic Code impossible for night dates. With this Cologne, I’m glad I can use it daily, so I’m getting rid of the classic and sticking with this and the Sport. Treat it a little more carefully as I don’t think I can get it again.
The DNA of the original Code is clearly there, but the Cologne is different. The balsamic and spicy accords are balanced, with a heliotrope giving it a notable talc-like touch. While the original is sensual for night, this is sweet and fresh for day. Its key is the persistence and the sweet-amber contrast. I wished the bergamot freshness lasted longer, but on my skin it lasts 6-7 hours. Ideal for a well-dressed, elegant man. If you like the Code, it’s a safe bet, much better than the absurd resale prices. PS: It carries the name Cologne but is really an EDT.
Sweet but not gourmand; only the opening is citrusy, drying down to reveal sweeter, floral components. I don’t notice that much of the ‘banana oil’ others mention, but it’s excellent for the office. A very good flanker.
Salvia, banana, and pink pepper at the start. It’s a bizarre plastic-fruit sensation but executed brilliantly. The dry-down is sweet yet not heavy. Quite good for its uniqueness and decent longevity for such a fresh scent. I wouldn’t recommend it because you’ll fall in love with it and then it will be discontinued. Despite that, it’s very good.
A perfect blend of freshness and elegance; it has that classic Armani sophistication but feels lighter and more accessible. I adore the citrus notes with a hint of spice, and the tonka bean adds a lovely warmth. Ideal for day or night, perfect for projecting confidence without being overpowering. Lasts around 5-6 hours on my skin.
