Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Acqua di Giò Profondo Lights EDP
This flanker is a divisive one: some call it a diluted Profondo, others a superior, more mature take. It's an aromatic aquatic that leans greener and more woody than its siblings, making it a sophisticated alternative in the ADG line. Prepare for a hunt, though, as it's often discontinued.

Our Verdict - Light Intenso EDP
Light Intenso follows the greener, woodier path of Armani's Acqua di Gio Profondo Lights. The cardamom-and-cypress freshness over a cedar-vetiver base reads recognisably herbal-marine, though the dupe lands thinner and fades quicker - a fresh green aromatic for daytime rather than a depth charge.
