Profumum Roma Acqua Viva is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2006. Acqua Viva opens with Lemon, settles into a heart of Broom, and dries down to a base of Cedar and Cypress. Profumum Roma's Acqua Viva carries an Acquired verdict, a citrus-led wear.

This one's a proper crowd-splitter - a blast of what some call the most realistic, high-quality lemon ever, while others get nothing but cleaning products. You'll either adore its zesty, long-lasting freshness or find it painfully expensive and a bit too much like furniture polish.

About

Acqua Viva opens with an intense, realistic hit of lemon; tart, zesty, and almost photorealistic, like squeezing a fresh lemon slice. As the initial citrus explosion settles, subtle woody undertones emerge, with crisp cedar and green cypress providing a grounding, aromatic depth. This gives way to a slightly softer, almost creamy dry-down, retaining its core lemony freshness throughout.
