Aqua Di Gio, my new Going out scent

Written: Feb 03 '04
Pros:Great crisp,clean scent.
Cons:Not too easy to find, expensive.
The Bottom Line: For days and afternoons, this is GREAT, for the musk lover it's one to give a miss.

I don't wear cologne on a daily basis but I DO wear it on weekends and special occasions.

In the past I have gone through Drakkar Noir, Curve, Cool Water, and Stetson.

As you can probably tell, I prefer the scents that are clean and light more than heavy and musky.

The last time that I decided to change scents, I was out with my friend Brenda and we were trying various scents from the testers when we came across the Aqua Di Gio.

At the first spritz her eyes lit up and she declared there and then that this is a scent that would "make you want to have your way with a corpse"

I hesitated at the price ($45.00 for the 3.4 oz bottle)
so I used a spritz from th tester and took it on a test drive.

I went out later that day and wandered about town to several places (coffee shop, book store, and sports bar and grill as well as the mall) The scent was a little too light for the coffee shop and the coffee aromas drowned it out but at the other places it worked well.

The results of the test drive were well above satisfactory so the next day I went ahead and sprang for a bottle.

Characteristics
The scent is light, crisp and clean with a somewhat floral scent without being "feminine"

This is more of a day time or early eve scent, for a Nigh on the town it may be a little TOO lite.

The scent lasts longer than most of the "light" colognes that I've used in the past but won't last you through an all night fun fest. It's good for any occasion but a re-application may be needed if you're going to be out and about for a long time.

Who Aqua Di Gio would be best for
Young to early middle aged guys would most likely find this a good scent.
It's a little TOO floral for most older guys but the ladies have seemed to like it in age ranges of 21-65 so far without exception. (yes I have a large range of friends and associates that I've worn this around and no I'm not THAT much of a player;)

If you like a scent with a high MUSK then you will not care for this.
