Giorgio Armani Acqua Di Giò Absolu

ACQUA DI GIO ABSOLU, the new creation of the Acqua di Gio fragrance line, is the work of the Master perfumer Alberto Morillas. Mr. Morillas was also the creator of the first Acqua di Gio from 1996, as well as the first female Acqua di Gio from 1995, Acqua di Gio Essenza from 2012 and the marvelous (and my favorite) Acqua di Gio Profumo from 2015.

The new version of the iconic Acqua di Gio edition, an Absolu variation, is presented in 2018 as a marine-woody interpretation in which fruits, marine notes and a wooden base create harmony in a new, expressive way.

The fragrance has been announced as one that brings a new sensuality to the collection and as a sophisticated and masculine mixture of marine aromas with patchouli. The composition celebrates the fusion of water and wood; the new chapter of Acqua di Gio shares the expression of a man's connection with nature, and the liberation of his inner strength and freedom.

"Giorgio Armani's latest fragrance for men emphasizes the very essence of water and its essential role in the natural world. This is a world seen through the eyes of Giorgio Armani, where the alliance of water and wood takes us on a journey into timeless masculinity, embracing a deeper overall consciousness. With the ACQUA DI GIÒ ABSOLU fragrance for men we see an incarnation of the man, highlighting a wise and conscious sensibility, as well as an understanding of the elegance of refined luxury. A fresh signature fragrance for men has been created, using marine notes and patchouli. The patchouli provides the perfect balance between the aquatic fragrance and the woody aromas, creating true masculinity with a sensual twist that is at the heart of the fragrance. This unique alliance of wood and aquatic freshness makes patchouli nature's perfect ingredient."
