Giorgio Armani Acqua di Gioia
Off the coast of Italy, the island of Pantelleria is a place where the deep blue-green Mediterranean Sea meets the sun and earth, creating a sense of happiness, serenity, and optimism. This fresh, aquatic fragrance, whose name means, "water of joy," captures the simple happiness one can experience at this extraordinary destination. The fragrance's top notes rise like a soft sea breeze, bringing forward a sensual blend of cool mint, warm brown sugar, and the zest of Italian lemon. Next, the heart notes emerge with beautiful floral hints of jasmine, dew of peony, and traces of pink pepper. The base lingers on a uniquely Mediterranean trail of cedar wood and the complex, herbaceous accords of labdanum.Notes:Mint, Brown Sugar, Lemon, Jasmine, Peony, Pink Pepper, Cedar Wood, Labdanum.Style:Joyous. Aquatic.

Glorious
-06.05.13
Quick Take: travel-friendly, reusable, good value
My husband got me Sephora's scent sampler box for Mother's Day which had 11 fragrance samples in it for me to try and then I could chose a full sized bottle. This was my choice! Why? I'd put it on before bed and smell it all night, even waking up to it in the morning! I slept better! Glorious! Heavenly! I can tell ya true, smelled much better on than just in the air! I truly made the right choise!

Review 3 for Acqua di Gioia
LOVE THIS.
-06.02.13
Quick Take: travel-friendly, good value
I recently purchased the rollerball so I can take it to school with me. It's a great convenience and I love the fact this scent isn't too strong or offensive. It's light, fresh, and beautiful. Great for retouching in class without spraying perfume in the air and annoying fellow classmates. This is probably one of my favorite perfumes that I own.

Review 4 for Acqua di Gioia
Amazing First Impression
-06.02.13
Quick Take: fresh, clean, relaxing, lively
I got this in a little sample, and I absolutely love it! It's clean, and fresh, but it give that feeling you're vacationing somewhere in Greece or Italy. It's amazing. I let my mom try and she loves it too.

Review 5 for Acqua di Gioia
Love it, but...
-05.31.13
Quick Take: good value, travel-friendly
unfortunately I seem to be allergic to a component. Shortly after applying, I itch all over. Hoping it is seasonal allergies instead; will try again in cooler weather.
Otherwise, I love the scent.

Review 6 for Acqua di Gioia
Compliments!
-05.22.13
Everyone, absolutely everyone compliments me on my scent, men and women. They all ask me where I can get it. Today one of the guys I work with opened the door next to my office and they said they smelt out in to the hallway! Overpowering but in a good way. It's definitely a clean scent, fresh but still girly and young. love it!! It stays on ALL day and I can smell it on my laundry until I wash it! I keep a travel size in my purse! I absolutely adore this scent! Love Love Love!!! <3

Fantastic perfume!
-05.20.13
I have had my eye on this perfume for a while. I like to have a couple perfumes for every season, and i needed a summer fragrance. I own Dolce & Gabbanna Light Blue (which is also a great perfume), but the price was a bit too nuch for me to repurchase, so i needed to find a summer alternative. I smelled this at the store and fell in love! The initial scent is aquatic, and sweet, and the dry down is also very nice. Some people have complained about the lasting power: i spray this perfume on at 7 am and 12 hours later, at 7 pm, i can still smell it. The price is also not to expensive, about $40 for 1 oz of the eau de parfum, which is a good deal considering its Armani. Very happy with purchase and i recommend this perfume.

Best scent ever!
-05.18.13
Quick Take: good value
The perfect and refreshing scent I've long for. One con: It does not last or strong enough for a compliment. I will buy a roller ball too so I can use during the day.

Review 11 for Acqua di Gioia
Gorgeous scent!
-05.17.13
Quick Take: good value
This has fast become one of my most favorite scents ever. It's absolutely perfect for summer because it's so light and not sickeningly sweet or overbearing. I love the price too at only $43 for 1oz. I'll definitely be repurchasing this when I run out.

Review 13 for Acqua di Gioia
Best scent ever
-05.14.13
Quick Take: good value
Best scent and very refreshing. I don't like very sweet or feminine perfume. I always prefer perfume for male. I've found what's really me in Acqua di Gioia. It is a mix between male and female fragrance.

Review 14 for Acqua di Gioia
Wow.
-05.14.13
Quick Take: beautiful
Not gonna lie, i almost didnt want to give my honest opinion because i dont want anyone else to wear this scent but me lol...this is the most refreshing and long lasting scent ever.
the beginning notes are notes are ok but once the fragrance settles in my skin and clothes its simply mindblowing. I have worn a different scent every time i go into work, out and at family events to test the response i get from people. so far my research lol has shown that this scent leaves people with memories. i had people texting me the next day telling me they still remember how good i smelled and ive tried them all (dior, juicy, michael kors, dolce, etc etc) and this one came out with the best reaction. Dont get me wrong i dont wear perfume just to get attention..lol..i seriously LOVE wearing this it makes me feel so CLEAN and fresh and energizes me. this is my new favorite.

Great scent

Quick Take: travel-friendly
This review is for the rollerball. I find perfumes in general to be too strong, so I tried the rollerball. So far so good. Acqua di Gioa smells good, and the rollerball application makes it quick and not too troublesome.

You know the sample inserts included in the Sunday paper... Yeah, I had a sample of AdG and it smelled amazing.... until I purchased it! It smells ok but not amazing like the paper sample. I'm passing this one to my daughter

Review 19 for Acqua di Gioia
I can't get enough
-05.08.13
Quick Take: travel-friendly, reusable, good value
This perfume is by far my favorite. I used to like floral perfumes- until I met this one. It is sweet, but sultry! It is crisp, clean, but also has a slight musk. I wouldn't go so far to say manly, but it does make me feel sexy. The bottle is great to travel with, and I am always getting compliments on the scent hours after application!
