Citrus & Woody
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Firstly, if fragrance bottles can buy you class, this bottle would be one to buy. Armani worked hard on this one and it pays off. To me, this reads more masculine, however, a feminine person would like more woody leaning would enjoy this. It smells somewhat soapy but woody with an intense long lasting citrus note. I’m not sure how they did that. The projection is great and I’d say this could be worn year round.

Not for me.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The packaging and bottle of this perfume is beautiful and sleek. I was so excited to try this as I love orange. However, I was very disappointed. I felt like the perfume has a heavy scent of pepper and musk that was a little overwhelming for me. I tried it again a few days later and it was still overpowering.

Spicy citrus perfume is lovely
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This perfume is really lovely. It smells fresh springy and a bit spicy. I like how it unsuspecting from a distance but when up close it has that great spice smell. I’ve worn it a few times to work it stayed for my whole day and I even received a few compliments. If you like to try a new spring scent I highly suggest this one!

Elder Scent
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The scent was okay it was a little tmatured for my taste. But I will say the Sven lasted awhile like 2 days later I was still smelling it. Now the packaging and bottle weee absolutely stunning and sit so pretty on the shelf. Plus the spray nozzle made it to easily distribute.

Fresh, elegant, and perfectly balanced citrus scen
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this fragrance! The concentration feels just right- not too strong but noticeable. The packaging is elegant and luxurious. My overall impression is fresh, citrusy, and uplifting. The finish is smooth and clean, and it’s easy to build up the scent if you want it stronger.

Herbal Green Scent
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A green bitter orange scent that’s leans herbal. It’s not for me, but I can see lovers of green herbal scents finding this refreshing. The bottle is beautiful and hefty and I feel like it would last you quite some time. I sprayed three times for the full effect. This has some longevity to it.

Thank you for sharing your thoughtful feedback, NicoleL. We understand that fragrance is such a personal experience, and while Orange Méditerranée may not have been the right fit for your preferences, we truly appreciate the care with which you described its green, herbal character. We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed the beautiful bottle design and noticed its lasting power, as both are very much part of the Armani/Privé experience. Your perspective is valuable, and we’re grateful you recognized how this scent could resonate with those who love fresh, green, herbal fragrances. Thank you for spending time with Giorgio Armani Beauty and for sharing your experience with us.
