Acqua Di Gio by Giorgio Armani Eau De Parfum for Men 75ml

Product Information

Incense from the base is very dominating and gives a calming feeling along with patchouli — the heart and top are light, seductive, and dreamy, while the base gives earthiness and masculinity.

Wie bei Seriendüften üblich, übernimmt der Flakon des Profumo die Form vom Original. Das Fläschchen kommt im gängigen Flachmannstil daher. Mit seinen ausgewogenen Proportionen, den abgerundeten Kanten und der breiten Verschlusskappe wirkt es sehr klassisch. Farblich entfernt es sich jedoch stark vom ursprünglichen Flakon: Flaschenkörper wie Verschluss erscheinen in tiefem Schwarz, das von dem glänzenden Silber des Verschlussrings und der Beschriftung kontrastiert wird. Fazit On average, Acqua Di Gio Profumo lasts for 7-9 hours, depending on your skin. As I’ve mentioned, it’s a very stable scent and longevity doesn’t vary much. During the dry down, it takes on more of a warm and slightly metallic air. When blended with the bergamot, the bit of metallic sensation from the geranium, reminds me somewhat of Hugo Red. Different scents, but have some commonalities. Way less citrus in the Armani.Projection wise, it doesn’t falter. Profumo isn’t a heavy type of scent but you’ll know it’s there. It starts out strong on my skin for about an hour and then becomes much more moderate. It’ll radiate during the dry down, about 3-5 feet, but still not heavy. To me, this is mainly a summer scent, as it will stand up and perform very well in the heat. However, it can honestly be used in the winter without any problem, which is a good bit of versatility. Updated note: newer bottles of the original, don’t seem to have the same staying power. Now, you can find bottles of Profumo, for below retail price. Also, along with Profondo, you can also try out the EDP version. I like that in the summer, it’s just not as good overall as Profumo. This one still ranks as my favorite of the line. The next layer comes from the same rosemary note from the original, plus, the incense which provides that smoky note, playing off of the marine accord. The incense comes up from the base notes earlier on than I get with the patchouli, which plays a bigger role in the dry down. Notes are beautiful and very well blended – Alberto Morillas is known for making killer combinations when it comes to fresh fragrances.

I haven’t seen that it lasts under 7 hours on anyone, so if you’re looking for a good performing scent during spring and summer days, Acqua Di Gio Profumo is your definite go-to.

Würzig-aquatischer Tagesduft

Profumo is a salty citrus with rosemary and the lovely Oriental quality of the incense note. It doesn’t have the same woody base as the original, and instead, substitutes patchouli and geranium.
