Our Verdict - 801 sea spray, cedar, grapefruit EDP
A refreshing aquatic that’s perfect for summer. While some find it a bit too 'blue' and linear, others rave about its authentic sea spray vibe and surprising depth. Definitely one for those who want to smell like a clean, vibrant coastal breeze.

Season and Occasion Fit

Acqua di Giò Profondo

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Autumn

Its bracing citrus, aquatic and mineral freshness make this ideal for summer and spring, where the airy and ozonic qualities shine. The light, invigorating structure is less suited to cold weather and lacks the depth needed for winter.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Casual Sport

With its moderate projection, uplifting freshness and clean profile, Profondo is nearly perfect for office, casual, or sporty settings. Its breezy, transparent character is less dramatic for formal evenings but fits most daytime occasions.

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Office Date

Its fresh, aquatic profile makes it ideal for casual wear, especially in hot weather, and perfectly suited for sport. While generally light, some perceive it as quite masculine and with enough body for a relaxed date, but it's too casual for formal events.
