For Christmas i asked for Armani Code but recieved a Burberry Brit gift set and an Armani Mania gift set, i actaully really wanted Brit and was surprised to see it, but i'm wondering if i should return the Mania for Black code but i've heard that Brit and Code are very similiar and that i should just stick to the mania, what do you all think bout this setup???

My personal opinion ... Black Code is good. Brit is great! Mania sucks ... very ordinary and VERY short lived. Also, I don't think Brit and Black Code smell anything alike. Both are definite keepers in my wardrobe.

But I would personally get rid of the Mania ..

Black Code and Brit are similar in their drydown. Black Code can get sickening after a while IMO.
Do you know how Mania smells like? You should see which one you prefer.

It seems to me you got gifts from a very wise nose. The accent upon Tonka makes Brit and Code close brothers, and I do think it redundant to own both. You definatly got the better of the two, IMO. Try out Mania, it seems to be well liked, albeit short lived. All the better, considering its an addition to your arsenal for which you paid nada.

IMHO, you should get rid of Mania as fastest you can. And btw, I don`t think BC and Brit share that much similarities at all. (BC is luminous musky fragrance, when Brit has much more powdery scent.)

on me the one and only difference between COde and Brit is Brit's cinnamon.

Thanks for the input, i actually applied some of the Mania before bed and i wasn't really feeling it, i like it better on women. I'm thinkin of returning the Mania for D&G PH even tho BC and Brit aren't identical they are still pretty close, i might buy a small bottle of BC down the road but i've been really feeling D&G for awhile now...Gio
