The story behind the bottle.
Emporio Armani For Her 2008 launched in 2008 as a sophisticated Oriental fragrance that epitomizes the Italian elegance Giorgio Armani is known for. The composition opens with bright citrus notes of bergamot, pear, and pineapple, creating an immediate sense of freshness. As it evolves, iris and violet bring depth to the floral heart, which is further enhanced by heliotrope and jasmine. The base notes of vanilla and musk provide a warm, powdery finish that lingers comfortably on the skin.
Apply this fragrance in a light layer as it blooms on skin over time. The citrus notes are vibrant but short-lived, while the powdery base will carry you through the evening. It is best for daytime to early evening wear.
