galbanum · marigold · aldehydes

Armani opens on green galbanum and bright bergamot, then tuberose and rose unfold over a quiet trace of jasmine. The base of oakmoss, cedar and amber leaves a woody, balsamic trail. Wear it in autumn or winter, when the air cools and your coat still holds the scent of damp leaves.
