I really enjoy this pineapple juice fragrance haha I really do I just bought it five days ago and the sweet marvelous smell is fantastic but unfortunately I have to spray quadruple of times a day for me to smell it on myself. Btw I have no idea why this smells just like pineapple and there is no pineapple hmmm LoL

This fragrance is harsh and synthetic. Is smells absolutely aweful. There are fragrances that i dislike. Then there are fragrances that I just am disgusted with an honestly need to wash off. This is one of those frags. It’s loud smells harsh and cheap. A what on earth smell! I find this smells absolutely dreadful. There are only three frags so far that I cannot stand smelling that are repulsive and this takes the cake. Second is le beau male by jpg. But at least le beau male is well blended and works I just hate the scent Armaf Italiano Nero is absolutely repulsive.

I love this fragrance sweet fruity and fresh beautiful fragrance. Good longevity and silage. Can’t ask for more at this price point.

This fragrance is terrible. It’s cheap garbage. The notes are not well blended they clash with each other. They do not compliment each other. It’s a very off putting smell o personally hated it and actually sent it back. It’s nothing and I mean nothing like black xs! I love black xs!! This is so so so far off base it’s not even funny! I bought this because I love my black xs. And was hoping it would be similar but different enough to have two frags I love and be similar! Nope! This is probly one of the worst smelling frags I have ever bought. And I honestly shake my head at a lot of the reviews! Are they even reviewing the right frag!?!? There is no pineapple note! At all! Nor does it smell like pineapple at all!! Any praise this frag gets is compleat hogwash!

Smells sweet pineapple note. Perform for 5 hours. If cheap under $30 can can buy. It’s good to mix with Aventus creed. 4/5.

Just bought it after reading reviews.
Bad choice from me I can say.
Too sweet.
Could not find any citrus & fresh spicy nodes.

I’m usually not one for layering, but… try layering this with Tuscan Leather or one of its clones (Nabeel Macho Man, Arab Tradition, or La Yuqawam). The end result is ADDICTIVE!
Fruity, spicy and leathery, the combination reminds me of Montale Aoud Leather, but it goes a different direction with different fruity notes and an Aventus-esque pineapple vibe. Some enthusiasts say Tusc-Aventus is the most epic layering combination, but I never cared for the combo, but THIS, layered with Tuscan Leather, is AMAZING! Try it!!!

A one word description of this fragrance would have to be, pleasant. Italiano Nero from the initial spray to it’s linear drydown evokes happiness. The pineapple sweetness is so refreshing. My issue is the same issue that Black XS had and that is longevity.
Scent: 8.3 out of 10
Longevity: 4.9 out of 10
Addendum:
This needs to be layered! As a stand alone, all this fragrance has is a good opening that quickly dies to a skin scent if that. Layer it with CDNIM, and OH BOY! A sweet, smoky bubble of manly bossness surrounds and accompanies you for hours!

This fragrance has similarities to black xs but honestly it’s better and should be classified as it’s own,i got 8 plus hours out of it and it definitely has a smooth pineapple smell to it,i have to give this fragrance a 8.5 out of 10 cause it’s smooth and women love it…….peace

On the first spray, I thought: “WOW. This is EXACTLY Paco Rabanne Black XS!” Much closer in fact, than CDNIM is to Aventus. As it dries down, it becomes a little more fruity than Black XS, but they’re very close!
Comparing them side-by-side, Black XS has a noticeably stronger sage note, along with vetiver and noticeable ambergris. Italiano Nero, however, has a nice ambroxan note taking the place of the ambergris. Surprisingly, Italiano Nero smells like it has much higher quality ingredients than Black XS. The fruity notes are actually brighter and longer lasting than Black XS.
I’ve worn this a half a dozen times now, and it lasts perfectly well for me, 6 hours noticeably on skin, and 8-10 hours under the neck of my shirt. Projection is slightly above moderate, which is MUCH stronger than my bottle of Black XS. Needless to say, Italiano Uomo Nero wins this battle, defeating Black XS, for me.
Also, the sprayer on this one is AWESOME! It’s almost like a Chanel sprayer. Seriously, no joke! Unlike CDNIM and others, the sprayer on this bottle disperses a good amount of juice in a perfectly uniform fashion. The bottle is awesome too. Some Armaf fragrances have notoriously cheap bottles, and while yes, it is still made of cheap materials (it’s a $20 fragrance, after all) but the bottle is really quite nice! I really like the leather wrap on this bottle. It’s VERY nice for the price!Update: Over a dozen wearings now, and I must say, this is quite possibly my favorite from Armaf, even better than CDNIM, for me.Update 2: After finally tracking down a bottle of Black XS L’Exces, i can confirm, this is SPOT ON to L’Exces! If you’re sad about the discontinuation of L’Exces, buy this! You won’t be disappointed!

this is impression version of TRUSSARDI BLACK EXTREME. I like both very much and both can be easily for unisex. Nero has stronger very obvious pineapple smell with casual vibe whereas Trussardi has more subtle pineapple and more on the elegant side

Worn a few times now and find this a very pleasant, low-profile gem. For me, it opens sweet (pine-appleish) and after a few minutes dries down to an amazingly warm, sweet amber. I don’t pick up other notes listed but that’s OK.
For me, sillage is good and when I’m in motion the scent seems to jump out. The first night I wore it, I overheard a group of gals I passed by say “That guy smells like a man.” Her friend responded. “Oh yeah, he sure does.” I can smell the fragrance on my shirt I wore the previous night so it sticks well (I heard it is a parfum and oils are used so it will be a good performer).
It’s different from the freshies, clean smells, and spice-bombs. I recommend giving this one a chance.

Update– Italiano Nero is based on PacoRabanne Black XS. The Black XS reformulation is AWFUL! Now the Armaf is the best version of this
I like how bergamot, lemon, and ambroxan combine to give the impressions of strawberry This is a good reminder of Black XS, (the original great version,edit). This is a great scent for the price. The new Black XS is a travesty.
TIL SCHWEIGER – :
though it has average performance on my skin, the scent is amazing. one of the best armaf frags I’ve tried. i don’t get that black x similarity people are talking about. but this one is fantastic fragrance on its own. love it and wear it more in fall nights
Славянин – :
For the price you pay it’s a very good fragrance for everyday use. Sweet citrus powdery vibe. Anytime anywhere fragrance will be especially nice on cold wintery days.
Ps
Doesn’t smell harsh or synthetic. Overall a real winner.

Scent 9/10..
I like to wear this at night,beautiful!

Lately I have started using armaf perfumes after randomly watching some of its videos on youtube and that most of its creation are clones of big perfume houses intrigued me.
Till now I have tested around 4 perfumes and IMO Italiano Nero is surely a 99% clone of black xs.
From the opening till end..it smells almost the same. Longevity and projection is upto the mark, considering it can be bought at just 1/3rd price of black xs in India.
Will add reviews for others also and surely keep on adding armaf collection.

Nice edt this, instantly reminded me of Dior sauvage but tested black xcess in the store and it is almost identical. Also smells like the fresh batches of creed with a nice depth but not beast performance. £18 in UK with free shipping just get it!
jjjjjhhhhhh – :
This one smell just like pinnaple that you just bit on. I don’t like Armaf clones but this one smell amazing recommend to buy. Mix this Itiliona Uomo with Inserection Pure II. And you got Aventus creed on top not of pinaple. Anyway it’s strong and get complement well it’s good to buy not more than $40 thou.
