WoodyWhat does Acqua di Giò Parfum smell like?
It opens with marine notes and bergamot on a bright base, while ginger adds a light touch of spice. In the heart, Provençal clary sage, Bourbon geranium and rosemary bring a green, herbal feel. Frankincense, Guatemala patchouly and woods anchor the base in a woody finish.
Both longevity and sillage are rated good. Most voters recommend spring and summer, and daily wear, work and leisure lead the occasions. Many see it as masculine and modern. Parfums de Marly Sedley and Hermès Épice Marine have a close profile.
