First Review: Acqua Di Gio

The one and only. Copied but never duplicated. Acqua Di Gio. 



This is one of the world's most famous and pervasive scents – and not without reason. Released in 1996, Giorgio Armani's Acqua di Gio joins lively top notes of lime, mandarin orange, jasmine and neroli, making it sweet and sufficiently crisp that your wife or sweetheart may even spray a little when you're not looking.

 I first purchased this cologne back in 2000 and have been re buying it every time it runs out. I use it so often I probably go through a larger sized bottle every year and a half. I love it, my wife loves it, what is not to love?

As progressive as it was at launch, Acqua di Gio's equalization of light and breezy fragrances with woodier notes has been replicated by about each entry level designer in the cologne world. It is such a popular cologne and been replicated so much that a lot of people smell like it. If you are looking to stand out this one might not be a good choice for you. Although, it is an incredible add on to any cologne collection, however perhaps not a perfect "signature scent".
