It's pretty quiet around this perfume here in the forum and also on other platforms... why? It's surely not the fragrance. Armani and Dior are probably the kings of taking out of the assortment and reformulating. Absolutely incomprehensible, considering that it can't be the sales figures.
Considering the horror prices at which the code blanks are sold, one would possibly expect that they differ enormously in smell from the original code (which is comparatively cheap to buy) in a positive sense.
What I can say about the Elixir: it smells like the EdP in a single test. In direct comparison it smells a little less citrusy in the opening and more like honey in the overall test. H&S do not take much. In the beginning it projects strongly but after 1-2 hours there is unfortunately a skinscent. I had hoped that the Elixir would make up for the missing performance of the original and thus be worth the money and the hunt for it. Unfortunately this is not true, even if I find the scent grandiose and will forever be a code lover and collector!
Maybe the absolute variant of the non-governmental codes is the strongest one, but I don't have it and would have to test it again.
Flacon is beautifully vintage, but single-handed spraying is difficult What's your favorite code? I think for me it remains the original, even if with re-spray :-)

Summer evening in Italia
I finally have my new love in my collection. If I could, I'd marry this fragrance. The only negative is that there's no bottle bigger than 75 ml.
Citrusy start, but not clean but juicy (Bergamot fans watch out!!). This is immediately followed...

a comment on this beauty is long overdue and so here is my second comment today:
frighteningly often I fall in love with fragrances from random samples that are enclosed with beauty orders and so here too. I tested the perfume in autumn...
