Which Should You Buy?
If you're after the classic Acqua di Gio vibe without the dent in your wallet, this is a solid bet. It’s brighter and louder at the start, making a statement with a DNA that never goes out of style.
This one's a proper divisive scent. Some find it a lovely, fresh floral aquatic, while others reckon it's a generic, synthetic bathroom spray. Definitely lean feminine, so blokes beware.
