    I have been wearing Code since it's release in 2004. I was so happy when the EDP released last year because, to me, the EDP has the strength that the original EDT used to have. The EDT is so weak nowadays. My wife loves Absolu... And Gold makes for a great office scent. What a lineup!

    This is my absolute favorite line of fragrances! Thank you for the video. I have all of these except Absolute Gold. The EDT has been my signature scent for years. It’s my answer to the “blue” fragrances, even though I have Colonia. Can’t wait until the Parfum drops. But yes, this line is great! A List is underrated.

    I know you didn't discuss it in the video, but my favorite fragrance from the Armani Code line using its namesake is Armani Code Ice. It's a pretty versatile scent I've used it all year round and received many compliments while wearing it. A little goes along way. I used up my tester and I recently purchased a new bottle off of a secondary retailer's website. I like it a lot you can wear it casually or even to an office/formal setting.

    Out of the ones I've tried, Code EDT is my favorite in the line, and one of my favorite fragrances period. People say the performance is weak, but to me it's a subtle scent but still performs.
    Absolu is my next favorite. Sweet, but mature.
    Profumo is next. This one is OK. To me it's just a worse take on the EDT.
    Last is Colonia. I'm not a fan of ambroxan and that is all I can smell with this one.

  • @JLSantz
    @JLSantz 2 года назад +3

    I'd still take the code edp over luna rossa sport or le male because of the quality. And the difference to those other two will be the suede or leather note that the code edp has, aside from the prominent lavender and vanilla scent. That said, i'd like to have code edp as a solid night time fragrance 👌

    Code Colonia is like a mix of Code EDT and Aqua Amara.

    I have official confirmation from Giorgio Armani that the entire line (profumo, absolu and the rest are being discontinued).

    I’ve had the colonia but starting not to like it because it smells like two colognes at once and it doesn’t blend well if that makes sense

    I tried code Absolute last winter and although I do like it I do prefer the Armani code Profumo which I have bought for this winter!
