Alberto Morilla's masterpiece
A masterpiece by Alberto Morillas.

Not only because he is on the best way to become an absolute classic and probably one day legends status will attain.
Acqua di Gio Profumo gives its wearer a certain elegance and self-confidence. An Acquat with woody spicy notes.

For me, this fragrance certainly has niche character. Price / performance fit perfectly. 100ml for ca.80-90 euros. And the Mattschwarze flacon is a poem.

The shelf life is with me at about 6 hours.
The sillage the first 3-4 hours good /, then it slows down a bit. But never intrusive.

A fragrance that fits always and everywhere no matter what time and season. Great in its way.

For me, the fragrance exudes elegance, style, class, and yes so I see it, also some reasonable sexiness.

Not slaying discreet but determining.

Who wears the fragrance, stands with both feet firmly in life. Must prove no one what and knows exactly what he wants.

I have tried to describe this fragrance as objectively as possible. The so a fragrance you have to evaluate objectively. He has earned in my eyes.

Honor to whom honor is due.

It will always be in my collection.

Thank you

When a scent and music becomes a headliner...
Hello, dear ones! br />
As the title suggests, I associate a certain fantasy in my head with this fragrance when I wear it, smell it and listen to a certain track. But more about that in a moment...

I have been an active DJ and musician for 16 years. Starting with Hardtechno, I found my musical way over House and Tech-House, now to Deep-Techno and Deephouse. I find this music so interesting because it has a certain depth and gets a certain atmosphere through various filters, compressors and reverb effects, making the tracks of good quality look spherical and dark. But how do music, a scenery and a scent fit together now. Let's just take the 1995 commercial of Acqua di gio as an example, where a track is running in the background of Oval, called Textual. This track doesn't build up any tension, but it still seems clean, deep and almost hypnotic to me, just like the scent and the video itself. In combination with the scent it evokes associations of a wide beach, sea water and the cool breeze of the wide ocean. I have often noticed that certain sounds or tracks can be associated with a certain scent. Let's take Underwater Love from Smoke City as another example... Who doesn't immediately think of an underwater world when hearing this song? :) This is exactly how I feel when I hear the Fragments Remix by Sasha Dive, wear Acqua di gio Profumo and close my eyes. This track is as dark and deep as the ocean and the scent itself. This combination makes me sink to the bottom of the deep ocean. Beneath me nothing but dark emptiness and yet it almost seems as if the ocean is endlessly deep and without bottom. How weightlessly I sink down into the infinite depth that seems to have no end... Wow! :)

Acqua di gio profumo has the same effect on me as the music, mysterious, clean and with a lot of depth. The prelude is cool, aquatic and slightly dark and awakens the described associations in me. Profumo moves very close to the original, but gains a beautiful depth through the incense and patchouli, which make it look much more mature and mature. The aquatic aspect remains always present in the foreground and is accompanied by a little spice.

The durability is very good and I get a good 10h+ with 4 sprayers. The Sillage is very good in the first 3-4h and flattens out very slowly, at least for me.

The flacon is and remains an icon and still impresses with its simple timeless design and a great spray head.

I really have to pay my respect to this fragrance and can only recommend everyone to try it.

A Giorgio Armani... you don't have to say any more!
Giorgio Armani is known for his good fragrances and has always been very popular and sought after when it comes to his fragrances.
In many perfumeries the test bottles were sprayed completely empty and one often smelled Acqua di Gio, Armani Code etc. in the air. Always hip and it didn't need any further comment but just to mention the name to describe this fragrance. I couldn't do anything with Armani scents back then. To me you did not smell too individual rather like a 0815 fragrance. I was a big fan of Ralph Lauren and his scents back then. A few months ago, however, I tried my luck again and tried some Armani fragrances. I was again disappointed and not enthusiastic.... Unfortunately! Once again you were too one-sided for me to 0815. Nothing special..
Then I recently came across Profumo here in the forum. It should be spicier than its predecessors and a power performance. So next thing I know, I'm just gonna try it out. Sometimes it doesn't cost anything...It didn't take long and I sprayed a test strip on my next shopping trip. Joa doesn't smell bad. Spicy, strong and fresh...I thought I was good and put the test strip back into my jeans pocket. While shopping I smelled the test strip every now and then and found the smell really good. But buy????? I wasn't convinced yet.
My annual holiday was coming up and every time I fly on holiday I cover up with a new fragrance as a reward. I had 4-5 fragrances in my head that I wanted to get next, but some of them were sceptical if they could be bought at the Duty Free. Düsseldorf Airport has a good choice of fragrances, but it can't get close to Breuninger. "But" I thought to myself, "the Profumo is there for sure." I showed the Profumo to my better half at the airport. She found him megaa. That's how a man's supposed to smell and it smells great. Fresh spicy. ...
Yeah, I thought so, too. I liked him even more now than I did the days before. Directly I covered myself with the fragrance and could test its durability and Sillage. 10 hours later I arrived at the hotel and still smelled the Profumo. In the airplane I thought partially hopefully the people do not think "he has showered with it" such a Sillage he had. Now I'm looking forward to spraying him on for dinner in the evening. A wonderful strong spice and a great freshness. Detail fragrance description has already been done here to suffice.
Short and sweet a really great fragrance that makes me even more masculine. In the evening you feel special and noble at the same time.

Jawollo now I also own an Armani and I'm already looking forward to it when I'm back in cold Germany and my friends tell me what a great fragrance it is and I simply and simply say: Giorgio Armani

Very helpful Review 3  
Nice change...
when one, like me, is more likely to be found in the sweeter realms of scents.
It was also a blind purchase from me - guided by many positive reviews and my need for variety. Something different, a little more daring maybe... but at the same time something that is not too "out of the corner". Solid quasi.

In the beginning I was a little scared, because right after spraying on the aquatic note is very present and stays for a while. I had to get used to it for the first time.
But when that subsides and the wüzigen chords are added wir´s always nicer. When the incense then slowly joins in, it becomes milder and very pleasing. The aquatic note is perceptible all the time but not disturbing at all. It forms a good contrast to the other notes like the Patchouli.
I find the base note very pleasant.

I seldom write anything about the bottle, because I consider flacons to be of secondary importance. What matters is what's in it. But I like this one very much! This simple design, the lid, the spray head, the shape of the bottle - that already looks noble. Just in the small 40ml version.

But I associate a certain outfit with the fragrance. To a surfer outfit or casual leisure dress it fits rather less, but more to lacers with jeans and jacket for example. It is just as suitable for a more gedigen event in the evening. I find him unsuitable for a date or a party.

The performance and Sillage is quite good. In the morning it was applied to the skin all the time (according to the people around me). It was not until the early evening that it decreased significantly and became very close.

I don't wear it often, but when I do, it's a nice change from the scents I usually have in my closet

Count Dracula's summer signature
Even though I am aware that I will reap a huge Shitstorm in this community for my personal opinion, I still want to make it known here.
The scent may be hypnotic. The scent may please many. The fragrance may be one of the most sold.
Nevertheless, I think one should not be influenced. That's exactly what happened to me. I let myself be fooled by the almost exclusively positive impressions and reviews and bought it blindly. And I maintain that this fragrance wouldn't get nearly as much attention if it were a noname scent in a less cool-looking bottle. Because, contrary to what is often claimed here, I don't find this fragrance fresh at all. On the contrary, the incense gives it a rather gothic touch, and I don't think it's a real aquatint. I have often heard or read about this fragrance that it is suitable for wearers 30+. Unfortunately, I cannot confirm this because of the gothic character of the fragrance, and also because it is very formal, over-scented and exaggeratedly masculine - just like the shaving lotions of older ladies and gentlemen. I see him with a successful 50+ - suit. The very formal note also means that I don't see AdG Profumo as an "all season, all occasion" fragrance, but rather as an office and evening fragrance (especially for formal occasions).
The contained scents (patchouli, frankincense, rose geranium) give in my opinion the impression that this fragrance is extremely noble and of high quality. But in reality, from my point of view, this is a 0815 trick of the fragrance industry. Fragrances like Encre Noire are also automatically attributed an elegance and value that I simply cannot comprehend, and I see the reason for this in the woody scents, which many already see as a quality feature per se. You really shouldn't surround yourself with such an artificial scent that devours your own character from my point of view. In any case, the scent doesn't suit me at all, and now that I know what it smells like, I remembered in retrospect that I had smelled it a couple of times on men who didn't like it either.
It may be stormed!

reading and hearing glowing reviews and rumors of discontinuation, I caved in and blind bought it. Wish I hadn't, I find it very generic.

Nauseous "fragrance". Good for killing bugs or to keep unwanted people away from you. Almost as bad as the original
