Armani Code / Black Code by Giorgio Armani, 2004
Reviewed by craquelure

I tried spraying Armani Code in a breezy spring night for the first time (2013). The leather scent is prominent throughout its life but it is not that strong to make it too cloying due to its...

Reviewed by Omega1185

It pains me to give this frag a bad rating because I really wanted to like it, and it does smell nice, but it simply does not last. I tried it three times, the last time I used several sprays and...

Hello -

My friend told me that her husband won't allow a real Christmas tree in the house. She would really like to get an authentic Christmas tree smelling candle instead. I would like to surprise her with one, but am not sure which brand is best. I would like something that has really good throw and is not fake smelling. I am not a big fan of Yankee Candles and would like something possibly made with essential oils. Any suggestions are warmly welcome. Thanks for reading my post!
