Our verdict on Air di Gioia: Favourite

This one is a divisive gem. Most adore its fresh, unique take on salty florals, transporting them to breezy coastlines. But a vocal minority find it sharp, synthetic, or reminiscent of cleaning products. Definitely try before you buy this one.

About

Air di Gioia opens with a burst of salty citrus from mandarin and neroli, evoking a bracing sea breeze. This quickly mellows into a heart of lush peony and bright orange blossom, rounded off by ylang-ylang's creaminess. The dry down introduces a woody depth with cypress, patchouli, and earthy oakmoss, lending a sophisticated, natural finish that feels like a walk through coastal woods after a day at the beach.
