What does Acqua Viva smell like?

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters pick summer and spring, with autumn and winter far behind. Leisure, daily wear and business are the most voted occasions. Votes for masculine and feminine are close, so it reads comfortably either way.

Amalfi lemon brings the freshness first, while Mount Etna broom adds a green, faintly sweet depth. Cedarwood sits beneath them as a dry, woody floor. The citrus leads, and the sweetness stays in the background, just enough to soften the lemon. Acqua di Parma Fico di Amalfi and Essential Parfums Nice Bergamote have a close profile.
