Acqua Di Gio Profondo, a very aquatic novelty from Giorgio Armani. Launched in 1996, the Acqua Di Gio collection draws inspiration from the depths of the sea and invites men to reconnect with their own inner nature. It all began on the island of Pantelleria, a place conducive to relaxation where Giorgio Armani liked to recharge between creations.
Acqua Di Gio Profondo appeared at the beginning of 2020 and completes the large Acqua Di Gio family from the house Armani. This time, the man who wears this fragrance feels more than ever drawn to the mysteries of the open sea. With this fragrance, the Italian house invites us to dive deep into this intense blue and feel this invigorating freshness of the water gliding over the skin. Presented in a new blue-tinted bottle, Acqua Di Gio Profondo draws inspiration from the vastness of the ocean. So how did the house Armani go about delivering such a sensation of freshness? Here are all the details of its composition.
Acqua Di Gio Profondo, marine notes blended with citrus
Since the launch of the very first Acqua Di Gio, Armani has taken us on a journey across seas and oceans. However, the first version of this fragrance took us more toward the Mediterranean. This time, the atmosphere is entirely different. It is more about oceanic depths. To give us such a sensation from the very first breath of its composition, Acqua Di Gio Profondo contains a marine accord, very refreshing, slightly salty and infinitely lively. Several citrus notes are also added. Bergamot appears in its top notes. This fruit, resulting from the cross between bitter orange tree and lemon tree, blends with the more sparkling and tangy facet of mandarin. The result is an untamable fragrance, endowed with exceptional vigor.
The aromatic heart of Acqua Di Gio Profondo
Then Acqua Di Gio Profondo is enriched with a more aromatic and very Mediterranean heart. As proof, it contains lavender, an ingredient much used and appreciated by perfumers for their masculine compositions. Indeed, lavender has a slightly retro and timeless quality that unconsciously reminds us of the scent found in barbershops of the past. Cypress, for its part, gives this fragrance a slight woodland scent, with a freshness close to that of pine. Mastic further reinforces the Mediterranean aspect of this juice. This green and fresh resin is further complemented by the addition of rosemary, an ingredient with an equally Provençal connotation.
The mineral and woody base of Acqua Di Gio Profondo by Armani
Finally, the composition of Acqua Di Gio Profondo concludes with an equally elaborate base. In this fragrance, the Italian house Armani left nothing to chance, and numerous elements intertwine to give rise to a fragrance rich in many facets. Musk releases an animalic breath and heightens the sensuality of the man who wears this fragrance. It is softened by a resinous and warm touch of amber. To convey a vision of raw masculinity, mineral notes are also present. Finally, the virility of this fragrance bursts forth in a final breath of patchouli, a woody note widely used by perfumers, known for giving greater longevity to the fragrances that contain it.
