Reviews of Armani Eau Pour Homme (1984)
by Giorgio Armani

Giorgio Armani is not my favorite brand in colognes. When I go to the mall, all is Armani in department stores. Well,short story...I m 30 years old and this fragance is not for me, maybe for my father or grand father. Ok, yea, is clean, but thats not very important for me. For me, a fragance means class, an experience. This one, no.
Opinions are very subjective, but this scent is expensive and smells very cheap. Pass.

A promising opening of sharp, dry citrus and refreshing greens, soon dries to an anticlimactic blend of soft, sweet, perfumed notes.

unfortunately the head note-the strong citrus and sharp lemon notes are dominating in a very strong way and within the time these notes become harmful and annoying....i am sorry but even if you spray a very,very small amount you do not feel the middle and basic notes-it is all about lemons and lemons-nothing else-a it stays this sharp-no harmony of the notes, a full and warm cologne-definitely not-clean lemons.Comparable to eau sauvage but not as complex and decent-armani is hard-cool-loud and the citrus very strong-too strong.pour monsieur is to my opinion the better choice-a warm blend, the ingredients better mixed and a nicer softer drydown.anyway armani 1984-the cool yuppies-no soul -no heart and this is reflected by the fragrance-choose an old guerlain, chanel or penhagalion´s scent-you feel the intimacy, the soul, love and the heart of a scent...

i hate it on my skin, it is so old-fashioned and boring. maybe for consumers 40+

Uh uh, this one just plain sucks. I don't know how else to decribe it. Armani pour homme is very lemony, and very boring. Lemon, flowers, a bit of powder- all pleasant but not memorable. I love the classic eau de cologne style, but Armani falls short of soooo many better ones. I would choose Mugler Cologne, Acqua di Parma, 4711, or Eau Sauvage over Armani any day. Armani is the flacid penis of the department store fragrance counter.

This fragrance have aged a lot. The smell is out of date and not quite pleasing. But it's the only original fragrance made by Armani to this date.
