Giorgio Armani introduced Acqua di Gio in 1996. The fragrance is sensuous and sparkling and conveys a masculine aura of marine notes, herbs and woods.
Inspired by a Mediterranean island refuge, it captures the essence of paradise. Energizing, stimulating, it expresses a healthy sensuality, an authentic and serene virility. Its complexity, however, suggests a subtle personality full of nuance.
The fragrant trail, particularly lasting and memorable, adds a very pure element of mystery, intangible warmth. A light, distinguished eau de toilette inspired by the fresh sea, warm sun and the richness of the earth.
This aquatic, aromatic fragrance opens with a splash of fresh, Calabrian Bergamot, Neroli and Green Tangerine like a powerful sea-breeze that subsides into a very natural harmony of water, flowers and fruit. In the top note, the citrus zest is dominated by a surprising and intense note captured in all its vivacity thanks to the head space technique.
At its heart, the aquatic, pure and limpid notes are tinted with floral nuances Jasmine Petal and Rosemary full of light and transparency create a masculine scent that is both fresh and sensual. Its delightful aroma consists of Lavender, Juniper, Freesia, Cumin and is accented with Ylang-Ylang, Sandalwood and Amber.
A zest of Persimmon gives it fruity momentum, a very masculine freshness. In the bottom note, the warm accents of Patchouli mix with the intimate vibrations of Cedar and Rockrose.
The bottle is defined by the simple purity of its shape, with a roundness that gives a sense of softness in the hand. Its frosted glass feels warm and sensual, yet hints at the freshness of the liquid within. A fragrance of contrasting sensations, Aqua di Gio for Men is an aquatic-woody-musk scent.
