Lovestruck Eau de Parfum vs No.027 Acqua Di Gio Eau de Parfum
ScentArt
Which Should You Buy?
Vera Wang Lovestruck is either a surprisingly sweet and musky floral or a watery, forgettable scent, depending on who you ask or, more accurately, your skin chemistry. It's affordable, pretty, and a safe blind buy, provided you're prepared for its infamously poor performance.
A budget take on Giorgio Armani's Acqua di Gio for women, leaning on watery pineapple and a fresh floral heart. Simpler and shorter-lived than the original's layered marine-floral build, but the sunny opening lands close.
