Advantages: Long lasting smell, nice bottle, good value for money Disadvantages: Can't think of any
...This perfume was obviously launched Giorgio Armani in 1995. It is meant to be a refreshing and floral fragrance.
Packaging
This aftershave comes in a light grey box which is rectangular. Aqcua di Gio Giorgio Armani is written across the front of the box in charcoal writing.
The bottle itself has slightly frosted glass and is a rectangular shape with a circular silver lid.
Price
A 50ml bottle of this costs roughly £28.00 and a 100ml bottle costs ... ...is quite a light and fresh fragrance. It is slightly feminine but still has a masculine hint, enough to make sure you don’t smell too girly!
It is fairly strong which I like because it means you need to use less and it lasts longer. It is also very distinctive; I haven’t found another aftershave that even smells similar! It smells slightly citrusy but also has some woody bottom notes which make a lovely combination.
Does It Last?
This aftershave ...

...Armani Eau pour Homme by Giorgio Armani Acqua De Gio Eau de toilette by Giorgio Armani Polo Eau de toilette by Ralph Lauren Lanvin L'Homme Eau de toilette by Lanvin Drakkar Noir Eau de toilette by Guy Laroche Minotaure Eau de toilette by Paloma Picasso In my earlier opinions I have already written about Guy Laroche's Drakkar Noir and Ralph Lauren's Polo.

Considering that this is made my Giogio Armani and also considering that Armani is something that I really do like, I was expecting great things from this one. Maybe I was expecting too much. Acqua De Gio is almost the opposite of Armani and it was more like an anti-climax when I first used it. My expectations were extremely high, so my judgement may have been unfairly affected. Acqua De Gio smells very much, initially ...

Advantages: Light, Fresh, Different Disadvantages: None
This is undoubtedly one of my favourite after shaves.
It is light, fresh and very different from the usual musky aftershaves for men. Plus it smells expensive!
It is a light citrussy fragrance with rounded musky/woody undertones which make it good for nights out, but essentially this is a day time fragrance, much like the new Armania Mania.
Where this differs from Mania is that it is a slightly more mature fragrance, where as Mania is for the ... ...this is for the young (and young at heart) professional - suitable for business meetings, as well as a night out on the town.
It is very distinctive and you do not need to wear a lot of it - it lasts exceptionally well with just a tiny splash. As a result I don't use it as an aftershave, but as an accent fragrance. Another reason I don't use it as an aftershave is that I find this, like most aftershaves, doesn't adequately moisturise my skin after ...

Advantages: Distinctive, long lasting, versatile, beautiful Disadvantages: none
One of my friends wore this exclusively for about a year, and when I recieved a bottle for Christmas, I was elated. On her, it smelled like citrus, on me it smells a little of cinammon and cloves, on my sister it smells like the ocean, and on my mother it smells like vanilla. These are just a few of the undertones of this wonderful perfume. It's not too sweet, but it's not as spicy as patchouli or anything, and as I illustrated, it seems to react ...
