Eau de Iso-E cedar harvest
Still one of my favorites...

A few years ago, still at the beginning of my fragrance journey, on my way to the capital of the happy Swabians - Stuttgart:

It was a lukewarm winter/spring midday and the cool breeze had done the rest to perhaps visit the safe warmth of a few more stores than usual. So it happened that the drugstore "M" around the corner not only had the already longed-for energy drink (which had so often cheered me up after a strenuous night) in stock, but on the way to it also the perfume assortment was not unimpressive for me as a layman. So I took the time and tested some scents...

With one of these probably new and highly praised fragrances, the shop was well filled, I unintentionally (*wink*) drew the attention of a young woman at my age to me, who wrestled the fragrance pouting out of my hand and claimed it for herself. This fragrance was Armani's EdC which quickly captivated me with its spicy green ISO-E-TEE. But not only me, but also my companions I met later that day seemed to be enthusiastic about the scent, which meanwhile came from my left hand.

All right, that night back in the "M" and purchased a bottle of this green elixir.

Also today several years and many scent samples and flacons later this is a "stack" in my scent arsenal.

EdC knows how to please without coming across too much like the BLUE mainstream fragrances a la shower gel.
EdC warms me up and makes me smile when I see people around me sniffing at the ISO-E-Super cloud that I can't see anymore.
EdC is one of my most complimented fragrances and also after all (fragrance) escapades simply mine.

I saw you dancing - Armani Grüüün
Fans of green fragrances know the problem: there's always something wrong. Either the perfumes become too herbaceous, too dry or lose their punch and fade into floral helplessness. Eau de Cèdre deliberately and confidently takes a different path and foregoes major developments in favor of harmony.

The start is reminiscent of entering a flower store in the morning. While the boss cuts the fresh plants, there is a vital freshness in the air. The focus is not on the flowers themselves, but on their lush green. Violet leaf and subtle citrus alternate, never too obtrusive but always perceptible. The perfect office fragrance, as Eau de Cèdre knows its limits and can convey its fresh character for a long time.

After a few hours, it becomes increasingly clear where the fragrance gets its name from. The green fades, woody notes peek around the corner. The cedar wood used is a perfect match for the fragrance, as it is not too dry and thus keeps the DNA alive. The only reason we deduct a point is because this certain independence is missing. The one wow effect that makes a 10/10 fragrance. Nevertheless, an unreserved recommendation for forest enthusiasts who are looking for a great, deep green designer.

Nothing special
Unfortunately nothing special this smell. I tried it often but never bought it because it was too "vegetable" and nothing else. Similar to CK Eternity only harber. I was hoping for a lot more as I saw the dark green bottle. Much more pine and just a fierce freshness from the forest. Somebody missed a chance to replace the legend of Polo. They would have had the name and unfortunately no real nose for it. When I produce something dark green as an Armani, it can't almost only smell like cucumber, I just expect much more. No recommendation to buy and certainly not at this price.

Tea goodness
This was a recent discovery for me. Not knowing this particular line from Armani very well, I decided to go with this one as the notes appealed the most to me.

It is a very beautiful, calming tea like scent with cedar and suede to support it, very elegant and timeless.

It’s a silent statement, not made to be loud or obnoxious, for the person who is in peace with him or herself.

It could easily work as an everyday, signature scent, it has the quality and I get excellent performance from it. Not beast mode but 3-4 sprays lasts most of the day.

A smooth, classic fragrance for the mature person, absolutely love it. Discontinued now as far I know.

Don't bother
Oddly similar to a sort of fresher flanker of Cerruti 1881 Amber meets Declaration and Armani Eau de Nuit at first, Eau de Cèdre opens with a blast of acrid, desperately artificial notes of cardamom, musk, cedar, a subtle generic soapy-floral accord, a light sort of depressing musky synthetic leather (Essence de Cerruti style), something smooth and lavender-like, amber, and a conventional head accord of mandarine-infused citrus notes. The composition itself wouldn’t be that bad, as it’s basically a refurbished classic “eau de cologne” structure with a contemporary touch (suede, powdery amber), but the quality of the notes – of any note here – is really, really too mediocre to make some sense. There’s a heavy feel of uninspired cheapness and flatness all over which makes Eau de Cedre smell as refined and interesting as a crippled emergency cone. It doesn’t stink but I don’t really see why one should look for this – maybe for the drydown, which is slightly better and pleasantly smooth (to the point of being worthy the wait and the nonsense first phases? No, not really). Armani fragrances have never been the state-of-the-art of perfumery, but this falls quite among the worst ones for me.

Great violet leaf-black tea combo. With an suede impression. Nice, polite, relaxing and under the radar.
