IDOLE d’ARMANI is my tribute to this ideal, and to women everywhere.” -Giorgio Armani IDOLE d’ARMANI is an ode to femininity. The IDOLE woman glows with a magnetic sensuality and a natural grace. She is exquisite, captivating, sexy and sensual. She is expressive and reveals her strength of character. The elegance of her inner soul makes her simply sublime. Giorgio Armani has created an opulent floral fragrance, the unexpected encounter of an inspiration from the Orient and timeless Italian elegance. The idol is revealed, magnificent and sensual. The top is dazzling with bitter orange, juicy pear, ginger and davana notes. At the heart, bright and audacious, rose loukoum, the very own emblem of IDOLE d’ARMANI, and mythical jasmine with a shimmer of sunshine, blend boldly with saffron absolute, rare and delicately leathered, tinting this floral delight with a honey-coloured subtle spicy note. At the base, luminous and sensual, unexpected styrax, patchouli and vetiver, at once refined and progressive, come to add their own harmony to the saffron heart of flowers, joining forces with the woman who wears it, without ever marking or dissimulating its character, melting into the skin of she who succumbs. To embrace his signature women’s fragrance, Giorgio Armani, inspired by the 1930s, created a sphere of crystalline glass, beautifully round with on each side halos of fine circular waves, echoing the central O of IDOLE. On the front of the bottle, IDOLE d’ARMANI majestically spells out its letters. A gold cap, a piece of jewelry that adorns the bottle with beauty and elegance. The outer packaging is like a block of pure gold, polished then sculpted in fine, even grooves to form a sophisticated and precious holder. The IDOLE d’ARMANI signature is stamped and engraved. Giorgio Armani has chosen actress Kasia Smutniak to be the face of his new signature women’s fragrance IDOLE d’ARMANI. “I chose Kasia to be the face of my new fragrance, IDOLE d’ARMANI, because she has a fresh and modern appeal which combines true feminine sensuality and rare beauty with inner strength of character. She embodies the spirit of the IDOLE d’ARMANI woman perfectly.” Giorgio Armani

About
Lovers by Fragrance Du Bois is a Floral Fruity fragrance for women and men. Lovers was launched in 2023. The nose behind this fragrance is Shadi Samra. Top notes are Passionfruit, Plum, Ginger and Bergamot; middle notes are Rose, Saffron and Jasmine; base notes are Patchouli, Cashmere Wood, Cedarwood, Sandalwood and Vetiver. Crafted for Lovers, this aromatic aphrodisiac reflects the unadulterated bliss of romantic interludes and shared pleasure. Passion fruit penetrates the pause, colluding with juicy plum and fiery ginger before acclimatising into an intimate clinch of jasmine and saffron. Classic rose caresses the skin, leaving the faintest fragrant trace of its fragile petals behind. Temperatures soar as cashmeran woods and milky sandalwood envelop in their embrace. Reassuringly sensual, gratifyingly decadent - a softly seductive and potent warm woody fragrance that settles on the skin like the golden glow of new unions.
