Which Should You Buy?
Our Verdict - Acqua di Gio EDT
A divisive yet iconic 90s classic that either transports you to a blissful summer or leaves you cold. This watery floral, with its unique vodka kick, is a time capsule - love it for its nostalgic charm or dismiss it as dated. Not for everyone, but unforgettable for those who 'get' it.

Our Verdict - 270 Aqua De Femme EDP
No. 270 tracks Armani's original Acqua di Gio for Women watery-floral formula closely note-for-note, but the calone-driven freshness fades quicker and the sandalwood-amber base has less richness than the source.
