Watch out for recurring Giorgio Armani batch codes
Some batch codes can repeat in different years. Free tools don’t always consider era and packaging and may assign a wrong date to your bottle. VIPER cross-checks the code with box, labels and production details to return a reliable dating.

How to read and date a Giorgio Armani batch code
Giorgio Armani batch codes are usually 4-digit sequences that allow you to find the month and year of production. You often find them etched on the glass or printed on the bottom of the box: they are the bottle’s “passport”.
Typical examples for lines such as Acqua di Giò, Armani Code, Emporio Armani, Sì can be combinations like 3001, 8060, 9620 and similar. However, reading the number alone is not enough to determine whether it’s a true vintage or a recent production.
Important:
The reuse of codes over time can be misleading. You might think you have a historic edition when it’s actually a more recent batch (or vice versa). With VIPER we also verify era, packaging and print details to avoid major errors.

Code hard to read?
On very old or poorly stored bottles, the code may be faded. With the manual service, thanks to detailed photos of base and box, we can often reconstruct the date or spot anomalies.

Collectability & value
The market for vintage Giorgio Armani perfumes is active: bottles with a legible batch code, original box and seals tend to retain value better, especially if pre-reformulation or part of first editions.
