Stronger With You Oud

Giorgio Armani · Eau de Parfum (EDP) · 2022

≈ $113 · 3.4oz · approx. retail

A 2022 exclusive-edition flanker that grafts an agarwood and leather base onto the familiar sweet vanilla-chestnut DNA. The oud stays supporting rather than dominant, yielding a woody-aromatic scent darker and more refined than the original.
