Decanted Sample of Acqua Di Gio Profondo by Giorgio Armani

It's hard to go wrong with this one. Very versatile as far as occasions, has been pairing well with warmer evening wear. A unique and improved take on an already classic DNA. See no reason not to have this on hand.

The bottle gives it away. Its a blue Acqua di Gio. Its great just like everything else in the in line and my absolute favorite in the line. About 6 to 7 hours on my skin. It's really good, but just understand it's a blue aquatic

Smells like mineral rocks from the deep blue sea with citruses & a refreshing green touch in the middle. Reminds me of a refined bolder Chrome Extreme.

To my nose, the entire ADG line smells extremely similar. I've gone back and forth between Profondo and Profumo. Profumo is slightly less spicy/woody and leans more fresh/aquatic. I don't have a strong preference for either. They're both versatile, male scents that the vast majority of people you come across will have no issues with. I don't think it's a WOW scent, but absolutely a workhorse you could rely on in any situation.

This is a nice alternative to the Purfumo...which I also like.  It is a bit less "musky" but still solid Acqua Di Gio DNA.

The classic DNA with a sea breeze twist. Great flanker, perfect for warm weather. A fresh mass appealing masculine aquatic scent.

Wow I absolutely love this fragrance, probably the best I’ve tried yet! This flanker will be remembered 20 years down the line just watch!!

Great versatile fragrance. Will definitely be buying a full bottle.

It's a very nice fragrance. It has the original DNA of the ADG but more complex. This is definitely the wife's favorite. I think its a safe blind buy.

Just a bit stronger.

A bright and long-lasting fresh scent. Overall, I prefer profumo but whereas that one is good for night, profondo is perfect for summer days.

-  overall (8/10).  It has a bit more depth/warmth than original ADG
- immediately smells a bit warmer than original ADG, fresh(5/10), aquatic(5/10), green (5/10), citrus (4/10), alcoholly(3/10), earthy (3/10),
- 10 min,  lighter than profumo & warmer/earthier than ADG original
- 20 min better than original, or atleast as good.
5 hrs later scent is still there, dry down is strong enough to notice
- careful with too many sprays, this is an intense cologne.
