Description
This perfume was created by Thierry Wasser of Firmenich and the fragrance is classified as gourmand-floral. The top notes are litchi and raspberry, the middle notes – freesia and lily of the valley, and the base are vetiver, cedar wood, patchouli and vanilla. The Emporio Armani PR team says: ‘ We’re using the rose but in a very gourmand way, like a flower that can be eaten’. The perfume will come in 30ml, 50ml and 100ml bottles.
The face and voice of the perfume is singer and actress Beyonce Knowles, to which this is not the first appearance in ads. Before this, she appeared in Pepsi (with Britney Spears, Pink and Enrique Iglesias in one, and J.Lo and David Beckham in another), L’Oreal, and Tommy Hilfiger’s perfumes True Star and True Star Gold ads.
The video and ad are in black and white and Beyonce, together with the bend, sings (and dances, of course) the famous Diamonds are a Girl’s Best Friend, which before her sang Marilyn Monroe in “Gentlemen Prefer Blonds” and Nicole Kidman in musical “Moulin Rouge”, in which it was shown as medley with Madonna’s Material girl. In the Hilfiger’s True Star ad Beyonce was singing the 1970s hit Wishing on a Star of Rose Royce. Emporio Armani Diamonds was launched in 2007.

Wow, the litchi starts off strong in this one – so tropical and beautiful – and then it’s joined by the raspberry and vanilla, and a background of rose. It settles down very quickly though. Starts off pretty loud-ish, but then quietens to a soft, almost skin scent, within five to ten minutes (at least on me). At this stage I get more of the lily-of-the-valley, the cedar, and the freesia. Coming in last at this point is the patchouli. Oh, but when it comes through, this is a really nice phase of the perfume. Yeah, those middle notes are the best for me; the lily-of-the-valley and that earthy woodiness is just delicious. The only downside is that it’s become very soft as far as sillage goes. I can only really smell it when I bring my nose close to my skin. Very, very, nice though.

I’ve has this scent for ages now and I can’t seem to finish it off, since I don’t find it especially flattering on my skin. It must be a skin chemistry thing.
On my skin this is fresh at first and I can catch very very slight fruity/sweet notes, but then it very quickly turns into a scent what I would describe as salty and even a bit masculine/unisex. After half an hour all I get is the salty unisex thing.
So this scent does not agree with me at all and I’m definitely not repurchasing.
The flankers of this EA line actually do work much better for me (at least based on testing them at stores), as they are somewhat more sweet, so I might try one of those.
dash69 – :
This is beautiful. Perhaps it’s the raspberry Rose, but it reminds of my Tresor midnight Rose. It’s a very very nice fragrance. I Love it!
rolexreplica77483 – :
Armani Diamonds is very romantic perfume, reminds me winters, chilly air, skating rink, raspberry ice cream and icicles.
It has pepper or something reminiscent of it. You know, champagne quality.
Men really love it. Ironically, it smells unisex to me.
nhentym – :
I love how versatile this perfume is. You can wear it during the day as a fresh, young & yummy scent, or during the night as a more sultry fragrance. My boyfriend absolutely adores this on me – most likely due to the vanilla!
The strongest notes I get are raspberry, lychee & vanilla.
I have the EDP and the longevity is quite impressive and dries down very very nicely.
medvejonok_tmn – :
This smells really nice. Like how your skin smells after a shower. Fresh soap with a little sweetness. I really like it BUT I definitely sprayed too much (only two sprays!!) because I am getting rather nauseous lol. Next time…half a spray at most.
KingGrey – :
I’ve tried today in my local superdrug ( here in UK) once I’ve sprayed, I’ve attracted attention from loads in the shop, in a good way, which was funny. They asked ‘ that lady smells so nice!’ so I told why. This is beautiful! I can sense the patchouli but mild, not sharp. As well the raspberry and the roses. I very much recommend this one as hopefully I can get one for myself.
expirimen – :
A bright, sparkly day time perfume. You can detect the raspberry, but it does’nt shout, it just whispers class, unless you douse yourself in it.
canteewap – :
Emporio Armani Diamonds for Women is linear, simple and… I love it. I’m truly glad that it doesn’t have resemblance to Emporio Armani Diamonds for Men that I don’t particularly dig…
This sounds so stupid but when I smelled this, it was like I sniffed a fragrance for the very first time in my life and I was so blown away. It’s sexy and so much more.
Longevity on my skin: somewhere between weak and moderate. I wish it lasted longer.
This is a signature scent worthy fragrance. I’m still testing but I can imagine this to be very versatile, any season, any situation. Wow. This is better than my other love, Versace Bright Crystal. I don’t know if this sounds any sensible, but I think that Acqua Di Gio Profumo is the ultimate “for men” scent. This Diamonds could just be the ultimate “for women” scent!Thierry Wasser, from now on I will dive into your creations. This has truly impacted me in a good way.
Galkalend – :
Well, fruity sweet opening of litchi and raspberry, yet still airy with hints of delicate rose. The drydown brought to me a bit of synthetic vanilla and patchouli with amber.
It feels fresh, it has moderate sweetness. Good choice for spring or summer, but I would expect much more from Armani.
bosstrost – :
an oriental chewingum… I’m not crazy about it
Jabs – :
This is way too bland to either like or dislike it. It left me indifferent. It is not bad, but it isn´t what i would classify as good either. I do like most of the notes of this composition, and i also like them mixed together, but here something just fails to happen. It is an inoffensive perfume, missing carachter. Touch of Seduction, by Christina Aguilera has almost the same notes as this, but is a fragrance that makes an impression. This is just an example, there are many other perfumes similar to this one that are much cheaper and more engaging. I was expecting something more sensual…
ea_genius – :
Warm light berries covered in crystals.
Vanilla without sickly sweetness. A Calm scent. Deliciously non edible.
I agree with the accords, but I think this has a breeze or stream running gently through it. This is a light but quality scent, it’s not thick and rich as some of the fruity fragrances are.
To me it has a feel of Issey Leau d’issey, watery but not liquid, it’s not the same scent as Issey either, to me there is just s shared quality in there.
In the summer I tried this and the heat just ate it up and spat it out, I think this is more a winter scent. In the cooler weather it seems to open up and bloom.
Soft sillage for now, it on you though, it hasn’t faded into nothingness the way some cheapie do, I feel it’s developing though the notes.
I am surprised, I had written this off.
By the way, Vera wang achieves this watery or airy feel too, princess has this quality, not the same scent, but the water or air is ‘running through it’.
Karkysha – :
To me this is woody, little bit powdery and somehow fuggy scent. I really don’t find that fruity aspect of it. At first it reminds me of some detergent, but it fade away soon. It’s kind of classy, but nothing really special or interesting for me.
I have to say it not my thing, unfortunately.
макс80 – :
I don’t know what to say about this really.
It might be better in winter maybe.
Hot humid weather doesn’t help this frag.
It’s watery fruit, I hope no tea note is emerging, for the price it’s not a good a gentle soft, non offensive safe one. We all need on or two of those in our collection, but I suggest maybe Versace pourfemme or maybe a Davidoff, look in my list for the lighter frags, they are all more imaginative than this.
Cheers
SUVORKIN2010 – :
To me this is a very “young” fragrance. It reminds me of a sweet and fizzy raspberry drink, I can almost sense the little sparkly bubbles in the glass… and I actually do feel a bit of peppery note, which I think adds the “fizziness” to the composition. On my skin it seems tastefully sweet and optimistic, but weirdly this isn’t the aroma I would expect from a fragrance called Diamonds… it is really fruity and doesn’t have that clean and cold “feel” of a diamond. Sillage is good, longevity – moderate.
KI2007RILL – :
I treated myself to this blindly after Xmas… and I’m rather disappointed. It’s not very sweet on me… it reminds me of Hot Couture (which was all sharp pepper and smoke on me), but I do like this more than HC. I sold my HC, and kept this for a fruity/woody scent- if I should ever crave it.
I’m all about creamy fruity, vanilla, gourmand, spicy/sweet…. and this just falls flat. Not much potency/sillage IMO, and it’s just a woody/sharp raspberry. Linear and not exciting. 🙁 It’s rather sharp and just…. meh. I’ll hang onto it tho. I decided to wear it today on a nasty cold, windy winter day.
duh602bedyWelty – :
I love this perfume, it’s sexy and playful , smells like raspberry and rose, yet very special and classy!
Den98 – :
Love, love, love this fragrance that’s all i can say, very long lasting, strong but not overpowering it’s a 10 for me one of my favorites. I also have violet version, it’s nice summery perfume i like it too but not as i love this one!!!
9/10
gakGratereera – :
This is a lovely scent, very womanly and feminine, not too girly or too youthful. I see some reviews saying it is pretty average, nothing special and very sweet, and I disagree. To me, this is light, clean, non-offensive, slightly sweet and slightly floral. It does seem to get a tad sweeter on me as it dries down. I spray a perfume and ‘walk into’ it, so it gets mainly on my clothes, not so much on my skin. This to me is just soft, sophisticated, elegant, classy, womanly. I do wish this had a cap, but I do like the spray. A great fragrance to spritz on for days I do not want to think about ‘what’ fragrance I want to wear. Brightens my mood and I always get compliments on it. Just a ‘safe’ fragrance to wear, great year-round, day or night, and I feel this is pretty safe for the office or school or crowds/gatherings. Not heavy nor overpowering. Lasts on me all day. Very nice. I always want to have a bottle of this on hand.
63valter – :
I used to wear this perfume in high school and remember I absolutely adored it. As I matured, I started to find this perfume too sweet, unsophisticated and way too mainstream. I can’t say I hate it now, I like it when I smell it on someone else. But I think it doesn’t have enough personality so that I will ever wear it. On the good side girls, all the guys that felt this perfume on me said they were hypnotised by the scent. I think it has something to do with the fact that if you smell like a cake, they subconsciously find you wife material.
aaoii – :
The beautiful bottle sets expectations. And the juice absolutely disappoints those expectations. It is unsophisticated, sweet and fruity. Very typical mainstream, candy-fruity-floral. Not bad on its own, but in context of the bottle, it’s a letdown. It’s like your beloved down on one knee with a small velvet box in hand, and he opens it up to reveal…a high quality pen and pencil set.
profit_igor – :
My S/O, whose sense of smell continues to perplex me (I know some of you can relate), started sniffing me spontaneously when we were hugging and I was wearing this. He never smells me normally, I always have to prompt him to give his opinion.
While he could not put his finger on what was so nice about this perfume at first, I started mentioning some notes, and he concluded triumphantly that what I smelled of reminded him of “soccer camp in Sweden when you’re ten”, or more specifically, a type of raspberry soda they sell there (hallonsoda) which is not available in our native country of Finland, along with miscellaneous happy memories of him and his friends being little rascals when the adults had gone to bed, with actually playing soccer occurring more as a sidenote.
He also has a hardon for litchi juice, for that matter, so I guess this is an all-round winner.
xddiablo – :
Lovely and playful summer fragrance; very fruity and youthful. Not necessarily recognizable but great for everyday, for office wear as well.
Aiforiy3235 – :
Sweet fruity floral. It doesn’t remind me of diamonds and it’s not sparkling or glamorous like diamond jewelry. Just a very easy to wear simple girly sweet scent. At the first spritz I got some litchi and rose. It smelled a bit like a cherry but I realize that it’s my nose playing tricks. It’s supposed to be a raspberry. The scent is a rose perfume to me but it’s one of those candied roses. The only other floral note that I could detect was freesia. The flowers are pretty tame and quiet. The fragrance has a short life maybe 4 hours or less. There’s a touch of wood but bigger on vanilla and amber. The vanilla is very noticeable and comes to you at the dry down. Gorgeous vanilla I might add. This is a delicious sweet smelling unmistakably feminine perfume. It doesn’t feel like a diamond to me but that’s not a problem. It’s inoffensive so you can spray liberally and it still turns into a soft soap or powder on your skin and doesn’t project too much. You can wear this anywhere including to compact spaces like office desks restaurant booths and elevators. Very nice. I always get compliments when I wear it.
genahairov – :
i smell NO raspberry this. Just being honest. I do smell a luxurious soapy type of scent. I like it.
Hoi1999 – :
My quest for the ultimate raspberry fragrance has brought me to Armani Diamonds. Putting my nose to the inside of my elbow I immediately get a whiff of effervescent homemade light pink raspberry lemonade. It is beyond lovely, a very real raspberry, sweet but not overly so, clean, light and airy. I wish I still had my sample of Kenzo Flower L’Elixir around to compare these two wondrous raspberry scents, but I used it all. Love love love. It would seem that those two will duke it out in the hopes of becoming my holy grail.
Boys_Tm – :
I’ve never own this bottle,but often came back to it in perfume stores. pleasant and non offensive scent. i like it 🙂
cecyinefeag – :
When I saw the beautiful bottle I thought Ahh’ Pretty
When I smelled the scent I was said Ahh’ Pretty!
When I wear this lovely scent I feel.. well you get the theme here.
Ultra Feminine with sparkling lychees and modern dewy morning roses and lily of the valley.
A truly lovely fragrance for all ages and occasions.
Make a girl happy give her Diamonds.
2000069982 – :
This fresh and clean fragrance has the zing of raspberry and something in the middle notes of freesia puts me in mind of Estee Lauder’s Pleasures. The base notes take a while to appear but provide a warm depth and longevity.
Like a polished diamond, this fragrance is multi-faceted and would shine on a bright spring day. I’m not sure it has the potency and richness I might look for in a winter fragrance but the rest of the year round I could envisage this being an in-offensive go-to perfume.
Сова – :
I used to have this in 2007-2008 when it came out, and I remember being all over the moon about it. Me and my mom. Armani Diamonds. All day long.
I think it must have been my most worn perfume in my highschool years, together with Dior Pure Poison. Everyone else in my class wore Britney Spears Fantasy and “Eau the Fake Tan” and I just felt so classy, lol.
But to the fragrance itself – More than just trigger the nostalgic memories, I still think it is a really good perfume to this day.
To me this is the smell of a glass of champagne.
This is the exact opposite to dark, smokey, woody “rum and whiskey” fragrances.
Fresh, floral, and a bit of a dry juicyness – like a starchy grape.
tozz – :
A very strong perfume. I love it – but not for every occasion..
And I like the bottle, all in all, this is diamonds.
flunniscels – :
When I first got this perfume in the summer, I sprayed it and smelled it and… Decided I hated it. I just gave it another chance today and I guess I have changed my mind, because I love it now. Haha.
When I first spray it, I get a lot of the litchi, raspberry and rose. Then after it settles, I get Freesia and perhaps the lily-of-the-valley. As far as I know/remember, I’ve never smelled lily of the valley so I’m just assuming that’s what it is.
A bit later, most of the fruit notes disappear, and I get amber note mixed with rose and soon after the vetiver shows up with hints of vanilla.
The rose is the strongest note in this fragrance without a doubt and it never waivers or disappears throughout the whole time the perfume lasts.
So, I’d advise that you maybe should like rose if you’re going to buy this, or at least not completely hate it or you probably won’t enjoy this perfume.
JAZUWEY – :
This is sexy.
Champagne glass with floating raspberries, rose petals and high end make up smell mixed up with male cologne.
Sometimes it feels like this perfume was stolen from boyfriends shelf.
udo181intitytek – :
In short, this fragrance is DELICIOUS!! And I mean that in both the edible sense and in a sensuous sense. The lychee is prominent throughout the whole scent, and for me, it adds a quirky and sexy appeal. The rose is also the most notable floral, and while rose isn’t all my thing, here it’s so good because it’s sweetened. I swear it smells like rose and praline and lychee-maybe a bit of raspberry too. I’m hooked!
sarlAnaessy – :
It’s autumn now and Diamonds smell of raspberry and amber, and vanilla, and litchi, and it’s sweet, so sweet. The raspberry is the main star, and the sweetness is cozy rather than childish. It reminds me strongly of Hot Couture edt by Givenchy. I wore it also in spring and it was much more flowery then, with a big freesia note, similar to the one in Black Diamond version, and rose. This time it’s deliciously raspberry-sweet and cozy. I guess I found my perfect time to wear it. Longevity could have been better though. It barely reaches 7 h on my skin.
Dvd – :
My favorite perfume. It isn’t as heavy as most perfumes (which make me sneeze) and it stays on for a while.
Gambit13 – :
Sitting here at work, at my desk…8 hours after first spraying Diamonds, and still getting plenty of wonderful wafts of it, it quite simply is gorgeous.
Is one of my favourite perfumes, yes it is sweet, but it is a very grown up sweet and elegant fragrance. I feel very sophistiacted wearing this today, I am sitting here in tee shirt and jeans, but this fragrance would be equally as apropriate for wearing with a power suit, of a powerful lady. Elegant is the word for this perfume.
umark13 – :
I don’t mean to be rude, but this perfume is so strong and sweet that it makes me gag. This would be a great scent for a stripper or a 14 yr old girl who just stumbled upon her new-found love for “clubbing”.
It DOES have an interesting lace of sourness and musk after it wears off a bit, but if you prefer calm/classic smells, this is unbearable.
genek1991 – :
Acquired this as a blind buy just solely basing on a magazine review when it was first released in my country. Funny as it was described to match a “PARTY”-phile’s personality which is really far from mine.The BIGGEST surprise is how I fell in love with the scent so much right on the first sniff.
It opens with a sparkling composition of fruits (litchi, raspberry) which is warmed by an earthy nuance that can only be distinguished on the heart as notes of patchouli and cedar. On me, it comes off very woody and a bit spicy with hints of the “edible” rose like the campaign claims. The raspberry, on the other hand, impishly comes and goes then settles until the dry down adding sweetness to a seductive yet warm blend of amber, vanilla, & vetiver.
I can only describe it as POWERFUL yet BEAUTIFUL;
SOPHISTICATED and ultra-feminine fragrance…
Longevity is really good with 10+ hours staying power. Sillage is also decent at arms length.
Monk89 – :
This is a very clean scent. its floral but clean, in a sparkeling way. this would be somthing for all ages, it is soft enough for young girls, and sexy enough for more mature women. i imagine a formal dressed woman with a swarovski crystal necklace, holding a chilled glass of champagne, all eyes on her. my only problem with this is, that there is no cap to the bottle, so i do not like traveling with this. but beautiful bottle though.
colder – :
Sweet, fruity and tangy is the best way for me to describe this lovely scent. Not too overly floral or feminine. Definite love for this one.
Diamonds aren’t just a girls best friend.
dsn515JeomiWogkig – :
I love it. It’s sweet, gourmand, sexy and very noticeable
vitvit3 – :
I love this. Quickly finished this one and it is still a favourite. I can pick this every time I meet someone wearing it. Definitely a must for every woman to try once. It’s suited to spring☺
zoro777105 – :
Very strong, you dont need much put it that way. I have had this a while. I find it quite a strong scent for daytime, its not my best blind buy and i dont mind my 8 yr old spritzing herself in this on occasion….. Although I need to remind my neice that 2 pumps is enough or it could knock out her parents lol! Fragrancistas in the making pmsl!
For me the fruit is overpowered by vanilla notes, however my mum likes this when I have worn it.
I would see it as a bold daytime choice or an evening perfume.
Longevity and sillage is very good as mentioned EDP is very powerful 1-2 spritz to neck and 1-2 at wrists would be more than ample i would do 1 on each!
Enjoy if you like this cost effective perfume x
apteechko – :
@Selinacat: I totally agree wif ur review. It smells so bland n boring for a brand like Giorgio Armani. It’s a nice fruity scent. That’s all I can say. Not impressive at all to me.
killmih3 – :
I’m kinda surprised by the popularity of this scent. In my opinion, it’s not Armani’s best. I prefer Code.
I always wear perfumes a lot before I review, but, after the second time, I felt like, eh, I get the jist.
The bottle itself is pretty forgettable. Its not something that screams “bottlelove” plus you can tell they didn’t exactly break the mold on the design. The top is plastic.
The main problem for me, is that the scent itself is pretty mediocre too. If you’re comparing it for teen-20s, then I can see its appeal. However, as my nose is a lot more mature now, there seems to be something lacking.
There is something oddly “Armani” in the composition. But, Armani Exchange not Giorgio know what I mean? The silage isn’t great, I sprayed it four times before I even started to feel slightly heady. (to test the quality of the ingredients)
Its certainly not bad by any means. It is something you smell and think, “oh that’s nice” but not something you smell on someone else and need to ask, “oh you smell delicious what are you wearing?”
That being said, there’s something telling me to try it again in the summer. (its March) So, if I change my opinion, I’ll write another review.
But for now, I’m sorry to say while I love its Code cousin, Diamonds hardly sparkles with the same tenacity.
Its reasonably priced and completely safe for blind buy. But to me, it’s almost too safe.
Like my style of review? I pride myself on my large collection (no samples in my closet) and frank honest reviews. Check out my others and let me know what you think! I’d love to know I helped just one person who shares my obsession!
Naislinee – :
I loved it on my brother’s girlfriend. It was just after it was launched and I also bought a few samlpes then (only thanks to my husband who said no to another bottle). Last summer I also got a small bottle of body lotion. I usually liked this perfume but now I can smell litchi only. The longevity is poor – after 4 hours I cannot detect anything. The body lotion is killing me though – it smells very strong and like a cheap one. My pyjamas smell like sprayed with some very low quality body spray/air freshener. Maybe it will be better in the summer or spring. At this moment it’s not a sparkling diamond for me.
dmitrisuvorov – :
Love it !!
CrysTaLL – :
I think this perfume is a classic already, and if not, it should be!!!
There are so many bad perfumes seen as classic and this wonderful scent is so underrated, I even got surprised to see some of the reviews…most of them talk bad about it. 🙁
Is one of my most fav perfumes ever and yes is sweet, but is a grown up sweet and elegant, what a confident woman should wear!!
For me is 10/10, no complaints.
Evigen – :
need to try again i only smell sugar . i tried again ….. soft musky notes. delicious , too soft for my taste but i love it anyway
CTEnaH_KAnyCTA – :
I’m so sad 🙁 I sprayed this beautiful smelling perfume on a paper tester stick and fell in love! It smells like some kind of delicious fruit cocktail with a classy edge. Then I sprayed it on my skin, and something in it – I suspect the raspberry – started smelling vinegary 🙁 My skin is probably too acidic. I envy people that can wear this. Anyway, it’s a lovely fragrance 🙂
SergeiDanilenko – :
Very unique and sexy. Somehow reminds me of bananasweets, very well-blended. For day/night. I like to wear it in spring and summer.
lexx46 – :
I had this perfume. It smells so fresh,modern,so femine. I would reccomend it to anybody. It is suitable for work,day,night,anytime… It is not so long lasting but anyway,put it in the bag and spray it during a day. Great for a present,too..
Gridshin – :
I want this so badly. Can someone give me a sample plsss
Intonsspore – :
This perfume is soft, elegant and very feminine!
Gusqodjv – :
I agree. It really smells like Turkish delight!! So delicious and sexy although I can’t say it is a strong perfume. Very wearable. You can wear it both day and night and also in all seasons.
Must have it!
bda168InsuffBooni – :
Hubby says it smells like Turkish delight, must be the rose. This is very wearable, super fresh, sparkling, playful and feminine. The name and bottle are absolutely spot on.
I like it from top notes to base which is quite an achievement for me, this will be my 2014 summer fragrance for sure.
Lasting power and sillage are moderate, it lingers beautifully.
choly06 – :
I was given this as a gift and although its not what I would have chosen myself, it is a very wearable fragrance. It is well named-it does sparkle on the skin with a very light and bright burst of sweet florals-the freesia comes through most strongly on me with a hint of sweet raspberry and virtually no rose at all. It settles to a smooth and subtle woody-vanilla note that has surprising lasting power. The first time I wore it I thought it was overly sweet but that goes very quickly and you are left with something delicate, feminine and subtle. Its not an ‘OMG this is the most spectacular scent ever’ fragrance, but it’s pleasant, inoffensive, pretty and light hearted. As for season-it’s hard to know. The fresh top notes are Spring, the wood-vanilla more Winter, but I think it could easily be worn all year round, day or night. And the bottle is really very pretty.
uteshydyecy – :
Overpriced? yes. Fruity? Yes. Linear? Yes, and one dimensional. I hardly detect any florals, just a few exotic fruits with a bit of rose humming in the background.
But does it smell good?.. Hell yes. I’m addicted. Literally glued to my wrists whenever I spray this. Must get.
svarkit4 – :
I love Armani Diamonds. I would love for it to be my signature scent but even the EDP does not hold on my skin. I get compliments within the first few hours and love the whiffs I get but the it just fades. I thought the intense version would have more longevity which it does. However, the brightness and subtle flower sweetness of Diamonds is very different from the more spicy vanilla that I get with the intense.
Diamonds is a lovely scent and very safe for the office as it does not overpower and perhaps on a different skin type It may have more longevity. My skin tends to be on the dry side especially in the winter. I would love to try it with a body lotion version but have been unable to find the lotion.
Саша Бородач – :
Nice to start with, fresh and fruity, if a bit weak. However, within 30 minutes it dried down to a nagging fug, slightly rotten, that sat in the sinuses and gave a migraine. not for me, I’m afraid.
djon2302 – :
Very soapy on my skin. It started in a very promising way – fresh, alluring, but after an hour I could smell only some nice floral soap. Sorry, I don’t want to smell soapy.
kobra58 – :
This starts with a bright crystalline, white flowers scent that then dries down to a salty, mineral-like fragrance… ok but nothing special and doesn’t last very long at all on my skin.
korob_dmx – :
On one wrist I’ve sprayed Lanvin Jeanne and on the other Armani Diamonnds. They both have a raspberry as one of their main notes. But boy, what a big difference there was. Jeanne’s raspberry smelled watery and just ugh, while Armani’s was creamy and just overall delicious. And the longevity was great too. When I’m buying my next raspberry or litchi fragrance I’m certain which one will I choose.
sainlenly – :
The raspberry is very intense in this one. I’m have nothing against raspberry scents in general but this one has weird kind of sweetness in it which I don’t enjoy. I guess for me this is not a perfect composition of flowers and fruits.
Cedar, lily of the valley and freesia together with sweet notes of raspberry, amber and vanilla makes it just too much for me. Sickly sweet and fresh at the same time. Weird.
EregeFeepinue – :
bought if for the bottle. realized later i hate the smell. reminds me of lemon toilet odorizer
fink26-26 – :
Overall a nice perfume to have and is very versatile. Great for most situations. Nothing too dramatic – not amazing but nice. Would be a good blind buy if you saw it reduced or just wanted to take a chance on a new fume.
fedyerko – :
First of all the bottle looks so sheike and sophisticated living up to its name. I do not smell any fruity notes on my skin though. It is very feminine and mature compared to the other scents I own. I don’t mind it but don’t like it enough to wear it often. A little does goes a long way. The patchouli suprisingly does not overpower the other notes besides no presence of the fruity notes.
I would say this is a crisp floral scent.
PruskasEProck – :
First notes are very nice, but later it develops badly on my skin, and then it vanishes, thank heavens! Pity, cause bottle is beautiful and I’d love to have it in my bathroom.
w28081978 – :
This really is a beautiful unique scent, no other fragrance is similar to it. The scent is strong and powerful at first & then becomes more sweet and powdery. It is classy charming and ultra feminine. It makes me feel confident and upbeat whenever i wear it. I would reccomend it to anyone, life seems much more joyful & pleasurable when wearing it. It is such a happy perfume and gives off a positive vibe.
All the notes work beautifully together it screams i am a free-spirited independent woman !
I get loads of compliments when i wear this, it always strikes and intrigues people, it is the one to wear if you are looking to leave your mark on someone through your fragrance!
RoMuL – :
I do not smell any fruity notes while wearing it. The amber, cedar, and patchouli shine on me, though not cloying. It is a fine choice for fall/winter; very warm and cozy. There is nothing grand or niche about Diamonds, but it it classy enough for most women to pull off.
Yanny – :
Got this last Christmas but don’t like it as it is too fruity – not at all what a perfume should smell like.
Very weak as well, doesn’t last which is a blessing really because it’s not nice.

Would I call this a fruity scent? Not really.

The guy I met end of January 2009 gave it to me as a gift on my birthday February.
A brilliant choice,my beautiful husband! 🙂
