The ocean, reimagined. Acqua Di Gio Profumo takes Giorgio Armani's legendary aquatic masterpiece and elevates it to something truly extraordinary — adding a deep, smoky incense base that transforms a fresh classic into a sophisticated, multi-dimensional fragrance that works in every season and every setting.
The Scent: Fresh, Aquatic & Deeply Smoky
Profumo opens with the same sun-drenched freshness that made Acqua Di Gio iconic — bergamot, marine notes, and a clean aquatic heart that instantly evokes the Mediterranean coast. But where the original stays light, Profumo dives deeper: a rich incense accord in the base adds a smoky, almost sacred depth that gives this fragrance extraordinary complexity and staying power.

Longevity & Sillage: Exceptional for an Aquatic
Profumo defies the expectations of fresh fragrances. Expect 10+ hours of wear with a confident, moderate-to-strong sillage that projects beautifully without overwhelming. The incense base ensures it lingers long after lighter aquatics have faded — a true all-day performer.
When & How to Wear It
Profumo is the rare aquatic that works year-round. In summer, the fresh opening shines; in fall and winter, the smoky incense base comes alive. It's equally at home in the office, on a date, or at a formal event. Apply 2–3 sprays to pulse points and let the Mediterranean do the rest.
