Dressed in black T-shirts, relaxed trousers and dark knitwear, Bailey fits naturally within the understated masculinity long associated with Armani. Restraint and character outweigh excess in this world.

I Will Eau de Parfum takes its name seriously, connecting Bailey’s decades-long acting career with the persistence behind the fragrance itself. According to Giorgio Armani, 2,800 trials went into its development.

The result is a long-lasting composition pairing smoky Madagascar vanilla absolute with deep woody leather notes. The campaign builds on that shared idea of determination, presenting Bailey at a career high while giving Armani’s latest men’s fragrance a face closely associated with contemporary film, television and theater.

Armani’s understated masculinity extends into tailoring shaped for the Mediterranean in the brand’s spring 2027 collection.
