Very helpful Review 5  
This or Layton, this is the question
When I smelled Layton the first time I was really impressed how fresh and sweet in the same time it is, then with the massive longevity .. it really won me over.

But then I tried Armani Code Absolu one day and it reminded me very much of Layton, with the apple note and the vanilla in dry down .. not identical but very similar for me.

I am really a big fan of the code line and I think Absolu is really the swiss army knife of the range, it goes very well for all ages, all occasions and all seasons.

I sold my Layton but Absolu is here to stay, thank you for watching the video too.

Personnal, vanilla, tonka and a little bit sweet fragrance: really good !
This is an excellent date night and close encounter type of sent. It is very addictive vanilla and tonka and it smells great. On skin, it lasts a very long time and even more on clothes (12h). However, the projection is weak and if the person is not in a 1 feet radius, you probably will not be able to smell this. It could be a good or a bad thing, depending on preferences and on the situation.

With that said, I believe that this scent fits well in cold weathers, not so much in hot temperatures.
I really enjoy this scent and girls around me seem to like it too. I have noticed that this fragrance, since it projects only in a small personnal bubble, makes people (girls for me) wanna stay close to you. It has a very particular smell and is highly addictive in my opinion. Even when people are shy to give you compliments, you can tell that they still enjoy this fragrance a lot, because it makes them want to stay close to you.

It is a sweet fragrance, but not overly sweet like some others scents that make it juvenile. I believe that it is a fragrance that can fit any age group and I would highly recommend giving it a shot if the description suits your likings.

FYI : I am a 20 years old male who is new to the fragrance community. If you have any suggestions on manly fragrances that are pleasing and good price-value, please fell free to send me a message !

Sweetness bomb
I really like sweet fragrances, but this is quite sweet even for me.

But I really like the opening, which is kinda fresh from my point of view. A combination of citruses with apple and a warm-spicy aura.

But after few minutes, after it stars to dry-down, it becomes sweeter and powdery, the vanilla and tonka are intenser and intenser, in combination with a spicy-woody smell from nutmeg and woodsy notes. There are some musky and leathery notes in it (probably due to Suede) which makes the fragrance more masculine. Also with a quite high dose of ambroxan..

The performance is quite good, not a beast. I get sniffs from myself even after 4 hours. On me the longevity is about 9 hours, and on clothes stays for more than 1 day.
Edit: the projection is quite weak, but the sillage is ok. Lasts long but most of the time as a skin scent.

Most women will like this fragrance.

Overall 7/10

Slightly synthetic masterpiece
On the Opening, I get a sweet apple accord that is slightly citrusy but also bitter (at least to my nose). This fades away after 8-10 minutes before a spicy kick of nutmeg brings in earthy nuances whilst still maintaining a dosage of citrus. At this point I detect carrot seed which I usually dislike in fragrances however is subtle enough for me. The dry-down is a somewhat generic yet pleasant vanilla and leather. This to me smells somewhat alike the dry-down of Dark Vanilla - Montale. It is unfortunate that this beauty was discontinued however I can see similarities in other scents like Layton or Dark Vanilla.

The scent is overall synthetic (not bad!), probably due to the age of my bottle and the environment it was kept in.

Bit more delicate than Code Profumo, toned down and less sweet.
Much more formal and composed, still a good fragrance.

Code Absolu opens very sweet with orange and nutmeg. In the drydown, you get tonka bean with suede and sweet vanilla. Quite synthetic.

Boring leather scent. Smells stale but shimmers a BIT on the drydown. Nothing wrong with it but definitely not for me.

Make sure you test this 1 on your skin! On the strip I was like "Hey, this is nice", and on my skin it smelled like cat pee. You're warned!

Today I discovered I don't particularly like Tonka bean. This reminds me of stale burnt coffee, heavy tobacco and cola sweets. Not my style.

A brief citrusy opening followed by plenty of tonka beans and suede, a bit like smelling a corduroy jacket up close.
