The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2019 by Giorgio Armani, Armani Code Absolu Femme is a composition that balances the freshness of citrus with the warmth and depth of white florals and vanilla. Dominique Ropion crafted this Oriental Floral fragrance to evoke a sense of modern elegance, capturing the essence of refined beauty with notes like neroli, ginger, mandarin orange, tuberose, and orange blossom. The heart of jasmine adds a soft floral touch, while tonka bean and sandalwood ground the scent in warmth and sensuality.
Apply Armani Code Absolu Femme in light layers to allow its nuanced notes to unfold. The citrus opening is vibrant but short-lived, so it's best suited for daytime wear when you want a fresh yet complex scent. The base notes of vanilla and tonka bean will provide lasting warmth throughout the day.
