Acqua di Giò Profondo Parfum Giorgio Armani 2024
2
Not your average AdG
I'm happy that I've finally found a Acqua di Giò that I love, but I'm sorry to say, it's probably the one I love, because it's the one that's the least Acqua di Giò of the line. Bought it right after testing it.
First it starts as a really obvious and natural mandarin + an oceanic/salty feel. A couple minutes after, a green, floral, sweet, and slightly powdery note starts to appear. It kinda gives me "Greener Invictus Aqua / Invictus Parfum" vibes at this point, but it's not an obvious similarity, just this citric, marine and sweet tone.
It's deep, slightly playful, may give some male shower gel energy at some points, but It will get deeper and richer. it's really well done and it's a fun one to smell.
After a couple hours, it loses a bit of this citric + bright florals part, and it becomes a little bit darker, earthy... Kind of salty honeyed flowers, if that makes sense? Reminds me of Tom Ford Costa Azzura Parfum here.
Longevity is good, but it's true that this is far from the EdP sillage.
I did not have the issues people mentioned of it being different on my skin. Guess I got lucky with my skin chemistry here?
Versatility wise, all seasons except maybe winter for me. Also I would avoid more than 3 sprays in a really hot summer day.
Bottle is beautiful, specially when it gets some light through it, but it's a fingerprint magnet.
