On him, I get citrus, spice, a woodsy note, musk, and even a note in an acquatic note (which I suppose keeps it from being too heavy). Mixed with my husband's skin chemistry, I actually thought it smelled quite sexy. I couldn't stop sniffing him. *lol* I could not detect many flowers (if any) whenever he wore it, but I'm glad. I don't doubt that they helped to enhance its charming aroma, though. Perhaps they kept the fragrance from turning into a citrus bomb. Unfortunately, it only lasted about 4 hours on his skin. Perfect for for any weather, IMHO. From beginning to end its fantastic on the right person.
smells like an ordinary aftershave for me,not something i would like to smell on a man on a special ocasion.
it is expensive here too and often used ,i remember that one time on a date the guy announced me very proud of himself that he s wearing aqua di gio.d' oh !!
i don t like the women s version either.



And it stays on for hours and hours. after a long day of work, long night out etc.





nice, simple and light fragance..thats all.
This is a very fresh scent with a very discernable note of what appears to be watermelon; indeed it is very “watermelonish”. It is attractive watermelonish. You may like it at first application, or it might take you several attempts to like it, but like it, you will, eventually; it is that good of an enjoyable fragrance.
I heard so many complaints that it is lacking in longevity, that it has hardly any sillage (English adulteration of the French: Silage, pronounced “Seyyage”), and that it is so light that one can hardly discern it even minutes after application.
Two factors must be addressed in this regard; 1) one’s olfactory sense is de-synthesized in time with the repeated bombardment of some scents into one’s own nose, hence, while you may no longer discern a scent that you applied to your face or hands, others can very easily detect that scent even from a distance away, 2) this fresh type of fragrance is intended by design to have a light impact on any nose, but the longevity may still persist albeit with a much lighter impact.
It is also of note that you should understand that the overwhelming popularity of this fragrance didn’t come from an abyss! Rather it has taken people by surprise, some fell in love with it instantly (Those with little or no perfume experience) , and others have given themselves time to acclimatize their olfactory senses to accept the new genre. The third type kept fighting their innate rejection until old habits “died-hard.”
If this would be your only fragrance, then you should look elsewhere for a more permanent favorite. But if you are building a wardrobe, then either this, Dior energy, Paco XS, or Versace Pour Homme should be a very good choice to represent this genre within the build of your wardrobe assemblage.
You named it then!
This is one of my fave fragrance that makes me got many compliment by wearing it!
Some flowery note (maybe rose), a bit feminine to me, which I just don't like.
Fresh and long lasting indeed.

I really love this scent alot on men. Sorry I have to disagree about the not-long-lasting point because I think it is really long lasting, even after washing the the cloth, I can still smell the scent on shirt.


It smells so much fresh and clear.Up till now,I still see no one be allergic to this great friendly sinlage. So good choice.


they are more for ACTIVE lifestyles and a bit sexier
Despite this it does smell good and armani has the best fragrances but they become PLAYED OUT cuz all these guys overdo them

there are plenty of other fresh scents that offer similiar tones but will at least pop and provide some uniqueness. worth the sacrifice to stray from this aqua to stand out.

for acgua perfumes





I bought this perfume as a birthday present for my fiance and he likes it so much!!
This scent always turns me on.
And i bet u know what happens next whenever he puts on this perfume..
Hohohohoho...


Kenzo is much, much better...not to mention more complex and mysterious.

But if u not wanna smell like everyone and their grandma. try a different aqua like Bvlgari Aqua.
