What wearers say

“My daily go-to fragrance whenever I don’t have any special event for the day and just want an appealing “smooth” fragrance that is subtle and lasts the whole day. It lasts on me much longer than the original ADG or the ADG Parfum and my friends have all commented similarly: smells really nice though it does not really convey any feeling of “rich” or “special” which is what I find is perfect for a day-to-day fragrance that still works if going out after work.”

“Where did y’all get the impression that this is discontinued!? I just contacted Armani and it’s still in production.Anyways, the best summer fragrance I’ve smelled. Exudes an effortless aquatic and exotic sexiness. Projection and longevity are incredible. Nothing but compliments and questions about what I’m wearing.”
A member of a leading fragrance community
“It’s really nice but reminds me of Invictus Aqua and there’s a ZARA scents it’s very similar to also, one of the summer ones from a few years ago (probably a clone of Invictus). Good performance. Fresh but with a syrupy sweet pear note and aquatic sea vibes.More like Invictus than it is to the OG AdG. Age 16+. Bottle colouring is way off it should be blue or green.”
