GIORGIO ARMANI Diamonds Rose EDT Spray, 50 ml

Product Information

Armani Diamonds is for sure pretty loud if too much is used. This is defiantly... a bottle can last you a decade sort of perfume. I have the lotion and large EDT. Is there such a thing as a fresh smelling gourmand? That's how it smells on me. Maybe that's why this comes off so synthetic. I get lots of musk, more of a white "light" creamy airy musk(compared to something like an amber inspired fragrance) yet fresh flowers and almost water notes. Armani Diamonds is bi-polor(hehehe jk). The fruits waltz in on the drydown for me, I'm guessing it's the lychee because I'm not getting raspberry. The musk has more "bite" in the drydown as well. Then comes this cloying synethic "what is that?" note. A fun flirty feminin fragrance. Not very sophisticated or outstanding , but just an easy pleasent scent to wear.

Usually I can't stand rose, I get headaches, but this blend not only makes the cut, it's one of my most reached-for perfumes. on the Houdini comment waaay down below. This fragrence does seem to change it's idenity though-out the day...in a good way) The scent itself is very refreshing and pretty. In the drydown I sensed some spiciness, which I assume comes from the vetiver note. The combination of sweet fruits blended with the spices has been achieved successfully, producing a scent that is both classy and elegant.This perfume was created by Thierry Wasser of Firmenich and the fragrance is classified as gourmand-floral. The top notes are litchi and raspberry, the middle notes – freesia and lily of the valley, and the base are vetiver, cedar wood, patchouli and vanilla. The Emporio Armani PR team says: \' We\'re using the rose but in a very gourmand way, like a flower that can be eaten\'. The perfume will come in 30ml, 50ml and 100ml bottles. the notes together make a sweet floral perfume that will hopefully soften slightly with the vanilla. The Patchouli is oil from a tropical mint bush so this should give the perfume the freshness it needs to stop it from being too overpowering, I am not a fan of floral perfumes but that sweetness makes it more of a friendly perfume in a fresh classy elegant line

I am pleasantly surprised by this perfume. It is sweet, feminine and sensual without being overpowering. Although described as a floral it definitely has more of sweetness to it and I think it is an original fragrance but one that most people will like.

It brings to mind sophistication, class, elegance, high heels, and fancy rings. On the down side it also brings to mind the adjective "Fake" because while it smells pretty good if it works with your skin it doesn't exactly make sense either. Oh ya, and smells very synthetic which is why while I like it I don't use it often.

Have a care not to apply this one too liberally, although that's pretty much the rule with any perfume. For me, two spritzs are usually enough. It starts out quite sharp, I suppose that'd be the raspberriy and litchi and a barely-there whiff of vanilla, which softens as it dries down to rose and a more prominent scent of vanilla. Of course there's more to it, but these are the notes I find dominate this perfume.All that said, this makes me uncomfortable. I don't know if it's because I got this as a present during a time when pretty much everything that could go wrong did. My dog literally ran away on Christmas...and more... On My Skin I Find It Wear's For Around 8Hrs, It's An Easy Reach As Well For Me, As It's Perfect For So Many Different Occasions (From Casual To Smart) And Also Spring/Summer/Autumn & Winter!! Never Have I Known A Perfume To Be This Versatile!! It Was 25.5° Here Today, And Yet This Was The Perfect Choice For Me After Having A Really Cool Shower To Start My Day!! This Perfume Is Equally As Good To Use/Wear Going Out At Night For Say A Dinner Date/A Special Event!! I agree to a certain extent that there is something in this fragrance that does smell a little artificial, but with that being said, this is not a cheap or nasty smelling perfume. Still, looking forward to wearing this one. Feels sort of comforting to me in a familiar way, like Cacharel's NOA also does.
