End the evening on the beach
I bought this fragrance for the first time when I was 15. It was something very special for me, because it was the first expensive perfume I bought with my own money.
Since then I always like to use it when I want to feel good.
Well-groomed but not too much after attention lately.
It smells like the freshly squeezed juice and grated lemon, not from the supermarket, but picked directly from the tree by the sea. Into the glass. A pair of mint twigs, slightly chipped to release the essential oils. Add a few ice cubes and pour cold water over them. In the evening on the balcony. Put a coarsely knitted sweater over it, because it is slowly getting cooler.
And look at the sea.

A dream of the sea
Close your eyes. Around you, the countless cicadas sing their song of summer. You lie in the shade of the pines and cedars, whose needles exude their warm resinous scent in the heat of the sun. The light sea breeze wafts the salty scent of the warmed rocks over to you.... and there's something else. The breeze carries the scent of Aqua di Gioia up from your wrist to your nose. The scent reflects the Mediterranean environment perfectly - it smells aquatically fresh with a hint of sea salt. Lemons make you want to feel refreshed. In the base, something resinous is perceptible. The floral notes of the heart note provide balance between the tangy upbeat and the woody foundation.
Next to you something scurries by. Could it be a lizard playing in the crevices? You open your eyes... and you're actually home. But your Aqua di Gioia on your wrist has taken you to the sea for a moment

Raindrops on the skin,
Morning dew on the grasses. A calm water in the evening sun. Yes, the name matches the scent. The associations that the scent awakens in me revolve around the theme of water.

"Acqua di Gioia" keeps its promises. Aquatic freshness paired with a delicate mint note and a dash of lemon. In addition a slightly tart green note. Very feminine, but unsweet. With time, the rose becomes more prominent and blends harmoniously into the overall picture. The fragrance also gains in sweetness, but this does not make it appear sugary at all. The mint, lemon, as well as the aquatic note are in focus throughout. The Sillage is very close - you smell clean and fresh. I can't say much about the shelf life of this wine, as I only know it as a sample and have not tested it over a longer period of time. On the hand I perceive it for about 3/4 hours before only a delicate touch remains.
"Acqua di Gioia" is a pleasant summer scent - fresh and feminine, but rather unsweet. Discreet and clean. Mint and lemon harmonize very well with the water note. Unagitated, uncomplicated and suitable for everyday use. Pleasant

My first great love
I stumbled into a perfumery 10 years ago in search of my "first real perfume". There you all were... the big, known scents.
It attracted me to Armani and Acqua the Gioia, the model stabbed me with the blue eyes ......... the first sprayer and ..... oh, love at first sight.
Light, summery, fresh, elegant and a bit sexy.
Since then a faithful companion, every day, for every occasion. Until me then, looking for a more mature fragrance, Lalique, Creed and what they're all called have crossed my path......but that's another story.

Not a Flanker of Acqua di Gio, Thankfully
There seems to be a lot of anger and disappointment swirling about the air in which Giorgio Armani ACQUA DI GIOIA has been sprayed. I, in contrast, am pleasantly surprised. There are several reasons for this.

First, I dislike ACQUA DI GIO, so the fact that ACQUA DI GIOIA smells nothing like melons rotting in the sun on a sidewalk washed down with pungent cleaning fluid is already a victory of sorts.

Second, since I know Italian, I recognize that ACQUA DI GIOIA is a perfectly respectable name that need not be interpreted as a flanker. In fact, it's a clever play on Giorgio's name, that's all. It means water of joy, not water of Giorgio (ACQUA DI GIO) flanker.

Third, the opening reminds me very much of Fresh BROWN SUGAR, which I happen to like a lot. So that's already a plus, since I do not partake in the futile plagiarism allegation game. I frankly doubt that Dominique, Anne, and Loc raided the Fresh house to steal their recipes.

Fourth, I found to my great surprise that ACQUA DI GIOIA eventually morphs into a refreshing soapy drydown vaguely reminiscent of D&G SICILY, which I also happen to like a lot. And, see #3...

All in all, to my nose ACQUA DI GIOIA was a pleasant surprise. I'm not saying that I'll add it to my collection, but I'd certainly wear it if I had a bottle. Fresh, sparkling, sugary then citrusy and finally clean. They've managed to roll most modern trends into a single somehow coherent composition. Bravo!

It's like a fresh oasis in a hot day: watery, clean and refreshing ,it's the perfect summer scent.
Maybe a little sugary. Refined bottle
