Armani Code pour Femme Giorgio Armani 2006 Eau de Parfum

Do you know that, you smell something and all of a sudden it just seems totally familiar and familiar to you, but you just can not think of what it reminds you? So it went to me when I got a sample of this perfume, which you could now almost call a classic.

Once sprayed and wow, what a fragrance. First, a huge avalanche of orange blossom rolls over you. I like orange blossom (as in D&g the only one intense zb) but actually not sooo much.... But this one is somehow different... Creamy? Maybe it's because of the bitter orange that gives the orange blossom just a different touch.
Shortly thereafter, perhaps a little jasmine comes to it, but the orange blossom remains very present.
In the drydown, however, the vanilla comes out very clearly and maybe a little honey, here it reminds me very strongly of my familiar Kenzo amour.

The shelf life is here unfortunately not so outstanding maybe around the 3 hours, then you have to already directly with the nose to the wrist to be able to perceive him still.
I've read several times that the older versions lasted much longer and also have a little more lush scent. I can imagine it in about, maybe it is also the old version I once smelled. And maybe I come one day times in the pleasure once again the one older version to get hold of.

Funnily enough, everyone thinks this is a winter scent. For me, it smells like summer, sun, hot skin. I don't know why, but that's the memory it evokes in me.
Maybe I smelled it once on vacation? And did not dare to ask? Or did a person I knew wear it?
It's just really beautiful to me, familiar, like an old friend.
I would also love to meet the Flanker Cashmere and Satin, unfortunately I am too late for this. Maybe one day I'll get lucky.
