What does Acqua di Giò Absolu smell like?
Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate. Most voters name spring, followed by fall and summer, while winter trails well behind. It leans towards leisure and daily wear, and also gets picked for the office and evenings. Voters mostly read it as masculine and modern.
The scent is fresh, citrusy and aquatic. Marine notes and fruity notes carry the freshness, softened by a touch of sweetness and spice. Guatemala patchouly and woody notes give it a dry base underneath. David Rothschild David Rothschild for Men and Afnan Perfumes Turathi (Blue) have a close profile.
