ACQUA DI GIO PROFUMO - GIORGIO ARMANI
🫧 Acqua di Giò Profumo – Giorgio Armani 📆 Launch Year: 2015 💧 Concentration: Eau de Parfum 🌊 Olfactive Family: Aromatic Aquatic Incense 👃 Perfumer: Alberto Morillas – Firmenich 🧪 GCMS Club Collection – Archives Gilbert Bendoni 📦 Number of Ingredients: 60
A scent that fuses sea and stone — Acqua di Giò Profumo is not a flanker, it’s a deep-sea evolution. Where the original was sunlit and breezy, this version dives into mineral shadows, incense smoke, and aromatic heat. It’s the Mediterranean reimagined in black basalt.
💨 Creative Intent Morillas envisioned a fragrance that captured the collision of water and rock — freshness with depth, clarity with mystery. The result is a scent that opens with marine brightness and closes with resinous gravity. It’s clean, but not soft. It’s fresh, but not fleeting.
🧪 The Architecture
- Diffusion powered by Iso E Super, Hedione, Ambrox DL, Cedramber, and Cashmeran
- Aquatic and citrus lift from Bergamot Oil, Methyl Pamplemousse, Cascalone, and Melonal
- Aromatic tension via Clary Sage, Lavandin Grosso, Rosemary, Pink Pepper, and Geranium Egypt Oil
- Woody-resinous depth from Patchouli, Vetiver Haiti, Vertofix Coeur, Frankincense Oil, and Norlimbanol
- Musky persistence from Tonalid, Habanolide, Helvetolide, Muscenone, Exaltolide, and Galaxolide
- Trace elements like Canthoxal, Hyacinth Body, Liffarome, and Beta Damascone add floral shimmer and mineral nuance
🌫️ The Signature Acqua di Giò Profumo is crystalline and grounded. It doesn’t sparkle — it glows. The incense is dry, the woods are clean, and the musks are sheer but persistent. It’s a scent that wears like a tailored wetsuit: sleek, sharp, and elemental.
