The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2009, Emporio Armani Diamonds He Limited Edition is a Woody Spicy fragrance that deftly balances the freshness of citruses and bergamot with warm, rich notes like cacao and guaiac wood. The inclusion of Sichuan pepper adds an unexpected spiciness to the composition, creating tension between its bright top notes and deeper base. This fragrance is a proof of Giorgio Armani's enduring commitment to crafting sophisticated scents that resonate with contemporary tastes.
Apply two sprays to ensure the spiciness of Sichuan pepper and the richness of guaiac wood are well balanced. This fragrance blooms over time, so it's best to let it settle for about an hour before heading out.
