Giorgio Armani Acqua di Gioia

Smells Good In The Bottle

At first smell of the scent in the bottle I thought this may be something I could get on board with. So I sprayed three mini sprays straight on me and for half the day felt sick. Just like a bad aftertaste, Girgio Armani Acqua di Gioia has a strong unexpected kick that hit me like a ton of bricks. It reminded me of sitting at a $5 blackjack table in a old school casino and the chain smoking old lady with the Armani imposter fragrance is poured all over her to "cover up" the 3 pack a day Winston habit. I wanted to move away from my own table. Ironically, I love Acqua Di Gio for men. It turns me on but, even if this scent did turn the finest of men on, it would leave me to woozy to notice. I think I'll stick with D&G Light Blue and wait for Armani research and development to come up with something lighter, more wearable.
