- Fresh on freshArmani Code brings citrus; In New York brings aromatic. Two fresh profiles stack into something brighter than either.
- Notes in commonBoth list tonka bean, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadCitrus, soft spicy, sweet and aromatic run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Armani Code in winter and fall and In New York in spring and summer. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Armani Code is moderate on both, In New York moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointArmani Code first, then In New York over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
