Which Should You Buy?
Oceanic Giorgio clones Armani's acclaimed Acqua di Gio Parfum - that bright marine-citrus opening over leafy geranium and a smoky olibanum-patchouli base. The fresh oceanic-woody signature reads true; as a budget take the marine note runs thinner and more synthetic, and the elegant incense-laced drydown loses some of the original's depth.
A truly unique scent that masterfully blends the unexpected. While some find the asphalt note a bit much, most are utterly captivated by its fresh, green, and slightly earthy charm. Expect compliments and a distinctive olfactory experience.
