Code - Eau de Parfum

A initially harsh and synthetic scent. Much better

Armani code elixir is a more synthetic and harsh version of Tom Ford's ombre leather. If you're into leather sense this might be a maybe otherwise stay away. I do like that it's is an elixir with higher concentrations of oil/fragrance however, it only last long as a skin scent and doesn't project much after a few hours. Packaging is simple. The bottle is nice with a magnetic cap. I'm terms of value for money, it's expensive for what is it.

Luxurious, Versatile & Long-Lasting Scent

Armani Code Elixir impresses with its sleek, luxurious package. Incredibly versatile for day or night, offers great value for money, with rich scent strength and outstanding projection that lasts for hours.

Great winter fragrance

This is a great winter fragrance as the leather and vanilla notes are very strong. It’s definitely too overpowering for a summer fragrance in my area. It is very strong and a little goes a long way. Definitely looking forward to getting more use out of it this winter.

Strong smoky and warm scent

This scent is a very warm smoky scent, very strong and a little overpowering leather top note. If you prefer a strong leathery scent then this would be perfect for you. Very nice sleek black bottle.

Nice Leather Fragrance

Armani Code Elixir really surprised me. I don't consider it at all the typical designer fragrance: its complexity, evolution and quality of ingredients make me think more of niche perfumery than a commercial line. At the start it is spectacular, with a very elegant and worked leather accord, which makes the difference. In the dry down, a liquorish, sweet and vanilla facet appears. It is warm, enveloping and with a gourmand touch that never becomes cloying. I think it is a great option to use at formal events, especially on cold days since it is somewhat dense and in extreme heat it could suffocate. If you are a leather lover, without a doubt, you have to have it.

Sensual

Imagine a sharply dressed spy slipping into a party—mysterious, confident, and quietly magnetic. That’s Armani Code Elixir. It builds on the classic Armani Code DNA, but adds more richness and sensuality. Think sweet, warm, and smooth—yet still masculine and modern.

Definitely a go-to!

The scent was very manly and strong. Definitely very strong and had that smokey scent to it. Good for a night out. Very fancy packaging as well. Highly recommend this for any occasion

A newcomer's take on Armani Code Elixir

I'm just starting my fragrance journey, and this bottle of Armani Code Elixir is a recent addition to my collection. Right from the start, I was impressed by the magnetic cap mechanism it's a small satisfying touch that adds to the unboxing experience. The fragrance itself feels highly concentrated, which makes it perfect for occasional use when I want something more intense. The very first impression I got was a warm, spicy note, which quickly settled into a distinct boozy accord. It’s a rich and inviting combination. After looking up the official notes, I agree that the leather isn't a powerful, upfront element. However, I don't see this as a flaw. Instead, it contributes to a smoother, more wearable scent profile. My friend owns the original Armani Code, and I can confirm that Elixir is a distinct fragrance, not just a stronger version of its predecessor. It has its own unique character that sets it apart from the classic. The scent is definitely warm and best suited for colder seasons. I personally wouldn't feel comfortable wearing it in hot weather or during any activity where I might sweat, as its intensity could become overwhelming. For now, I'm happy to reserve this for evenings and special occasions when a bolder fragrance is just what I'm looking for

Strong leather scent

This is a very mature scent that may not be everyone’s favorite. The tops note is definitely leather with musky scent as well . I feel like a little bit will go a long way so the bottle will last you a while to get through . Not my favorite scent but not too bad . The bottle itself is very nice looking and looks expensive.

This perfume is worth trying!

I received this product for free from Armani Code and Influenster in exchange for this honest review. There’s something undeniably captivating about Armani Code Elixir. From the first spray, it feels bold and confident—definitely not your everyday scent. It opens with a warm, spicy sweetness that’s deep and a little mysterious, but still smooth and refined. I notice amber and tonka bean standing out, giving it that rich, slightly creamy edge, but balanced with a bit of freshness so it’s not overwhelming. What I really like is how long it lasts—it stays on for hours without fading too quickly. It’s definitely more of a statement scent, something I’d wear for a night out or special evening. Feels luxurious, elegant, and powerful—like putting on a sleek black suit. If you love something intense, masculine, and a little seductive, this one's worth trying. It has that classic Armani Code DNA, but deeper and more concentrated.

Elegant and powerful

This scent is smooth, warm, and long-lasting. It feels luxurious and modern, perfect for evenings or making a strong impression. The bottle itself looks sleek and premium. A classy, masculine fragrance that gets compliments every time. Love it!
