The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2022 by Carlos Benaïm, My Way Nacre by Giorgio Armani is a sophisticated fragrance that balances crisp citrus notes with rich floral and woody accords. The composition opens with the freshness of bergamot and orange blossom, creating an immediate sense of brightness. This gives way to the lush heart of tuberose and jasmine, followed by a warm base of cedar, vanilla, and musk. My Way Nacre is neither overtly feminine nor masculine, embodying Giorgio Armani's signature blend of elegance and versatility.

How to wear it

My Way Nacre has a strong opening that fades into its base notes over time. Apply two sprays to ensure the full depth of the fragrance is experienced throughout the day. It pairs well with layered clothing, allowing it to be subtle yet noticeable.
