AdG ESSENZA, MORE SERIOUS VERSION OF ALREADY ICONIC SCENT
When I first tried Essenza AdG, I was really impressed with the scent.
Bottle looks iconic too. Box in shiny metallic finish looks premium.
More mature vibe, and cleaner overall. Not so citrusy like original.
It's very fresh but somehow bitter. That's basil and sage I think.
And it's little peppery and zingy, which is nice in the warm weather.
In the dry-down it turns a little dark, I think patchouli or amber does that.
It does give a little hint of some synthetic ingredients, nothing major.
I went thru four 180ml bottles and one 75ml for the road.
For four years my summers were smelling mostly like Essenza AdG.
Finally it was over, I was bored with the Essenza AdG. Had enough of it.
I stay AdG Essenza fan forever, however Armani is not offering it any more.
It was great while it lasted, what a summer fragrance that was .
All that is left of AdG Essenza is the memory of some great summers ...
