Armani Prive Vert Malachite is a rich, creamy white floral fragrance centered around lily, jasmine, and ylang-ylang, with a sweet, velvety base of vanilla and benzoin. The opening features subtle green citrus notes from bitter orange and petitgrain, but the fragrance quickly shifts into a powerful, opulent bouquet of tropical white flowers. The lily note dominates throughout, giving the scent a lush, almost indolic character, while ylang-ylang adds a creamy, slightly fruity depth. The vanilla and benzoin create a soft, warm, skin-like dry down, lending a luxurious and gourmand quality without being overly sweet. It's known for its impressive longevity and strong sillage, making it a statement scent suitable for special occasions, spring and summer evenings, or when a bold, feminine floral presence is desired. While some find it overly sweet or heady, its exceptional performance and elegant balance appeal strongly to lovers of opulent white florals.
