Inspired by Mania - Giorgio Armani(mens 108)

I have purchased this a few times for my husband but the most recent order I just received 16.1.26 is terrible, nothing like the previous bottles.

I had really high hopes for this perfume because so many reviews said it was great, however, the smell is nothing like Armani Mania.

The staff at the Swanston street store were impeccable, extremely courteous and helpful. Having owned several retail businesses myself, I could not fault them.

Stock from 24/4/24 smelled great and the intensity lasted for about a couple of hours, had about one third left before the pump broke

Bought a replacement on 13/9/24, slightly less fragrant notes and the intensity of the fragrance literally dropped to very minimal within 10 minutes (almost like it was after 2 hours of the previous batch)

Hopefully the new batch will be better

I have an old bottle of the original so I could compare them and it's almost perfect. This scent has a bit more strength or spiciness to it but that could be because my old bottle is many years old and has lost it's strength? Either way, I am happy with the cologne, and it smells close enough to my favourite (Amani Mania) for me to purchase it again.
