Since 2005, Code 37 Men Karen Low has never stopped surprising. This is a masculine fragrance rooted in the floral and citrus families. A fragrance from the Code collection, in eau de toilette.
Made in France, backed by a long and proud tradition. Code 37 Men Karen Low unfolds gradually, effortlessly, and with great refinement — a perfect choice for day or evening.
The fragrance is very long-lasting, staying on the skin for 12 hours or more, gradually revealing its notes
The scent will linger in the air even after its wearer has left.
The perfume has a fresh scent that is not too intense, so it does not overwhelm those around you with strong essences
A light and elegant fragrance with harmonious richness—the perfect balance between the depth of eau de parfum and the freshness of cologne
Fragrances for spring and summer unfold with light citrus notes, floral and fruity accords, filling the composition with freshness, airiness, and a feeling of carefree lightness on warm days
The composition of Code 37 Men evolves as a layered story, where layers reveal themselves smoothly and sequentially. The style of Karen Low is clear from the opening to the final trail. No excess details, only what works, and the composition keeps a clear direction. Eau de toilette keeps the right density and pace of development.
From the first breath you meet invigorating sunny top notes: Bergamot, Cardamom, Grapefruit and Pineapple. These 4 notes form sunny vitality that gives the fragrance a clear opening statement.
In the central layer you meet Aquatic Flowers, Lavender, Ozone and Tea holding a pure leafy direction.
The internal accord map is built around these accords: Aromatic, Abstract, Citrus and Floral with each one in a clear role. Background accords such as Fruit, Musc, Wood and Amber enrich the profile without taking over.
At the note-group layer the composition is built around Citrus, Spicy, Fruit and Floral. The palette also extends to Green, Mineral, Ambery and Wood. At family level the composition sits in Citrus and Floral.
In summary Code 37 Men holds a coherent structure — the start forms character, the central phase adds depth, and the base secures the trail. These are the scent structures best judged through real development.
