About this deal

Ultimately, what I get with AdG Absolu is a citrusy marine cologne with a woody base that is covered in amber resin. Then tonka bean and light spices peppered in. Upon the opening smell, Absolu immediately smells familiar to me, and has quite a bit of overlap with Invictus Aqua. Namely, the share the woody notes, marine aspects, and grapefruit. It’s mostly at the beginning that they smell alike and this Armani fragrance is much better in my opinion. Aqua can have this stinky dry down of the sea notes, but the Armani doesn’t.

Acqua Di Gio Absolu otrzymałem w prezencie. TŻ długo studiowała nuty zapachowe, pytając mnie czy taki zestaw jest ok. I na papierze jest ok. A few minutes in, Absolu begins to take on a resinous smell, thanks to the labdanum. There is also a hint of patchouli which brings in some earthy spice into the mix. The patchouli isn’t super heavy or anything, but it does play its part within the composition beautifully. Projection wise, the sillage starts out fairly powerful, but settles down into something that is more moderate but steady. You won’t need more than a few sprays for this stuff to do its magic. For an (semi) aquatic kind of cologne, it does have great power versus many others of this ilk. Phần cổ tay được xịt nước hoa thường có nhiều tác động như lúc rửa tay, đeo vòng, đồng hồ, do đó để đảm bảo mùi hương được duy trì, bạn nên sử dụng nước hoa ở cổ tay ở tần suất nhiều hơn lúc cần thiết.Jeszcze przed pierszym psiknieciem powachałem dozownik i mysle sobie hmmm troche jak versace eros moze? czuc delikatnie miete, słodkość ale ogolnie takie nijakie... I am going to explore, what it smells like, how it performs, when it should be worn, and if it is actually worth a try. Please continue below for my full take on Absolu. Po ok 2-3 godzinach zaczyna byc wyczuwalny amboxan nuty balsamiczne i slodkosc szalwii no i jakby delikatne kadzidlo (ogolnie na skórze taka stonowana słodkość towarzyszy tym perfumom przez cały czas).

Notes include: patchouli, marine notes, labdanum, tonka bean, wood, bergamot, grapefruit, lavender, rosemary, apple, pear Overall, do I like Acqua di Gio Absolu? Yes, I do. I get the similarities with something like Invictus Aqua, but it’s so much better than that, and doesn’t have the same level of synthetic smelling ingredients. I Another interesting aspect of this cologne is the herbal undertones that peak through during the wear. It doesn’t seem to be consistently there, but I catch distinct rosemary, at times and it plays off really nice in this aquatic fragrance. However, I’d would rather wear almost any other of the Acqua di Gio line (outside of Profondo Lights). Profumo, EDT, and Profondo are all better. As such, I don’t have a need to grab a full bottle.

Absolu really has that ambery sort of smell throughout, I know the labdanum is playing a big part of that, but I wonder if one of the wood notes is amber wood? I haven’t seen it listed, but I do think so. It is a harsher aroma versus the more naturalistic amber notes out there. Longevity is also quite good, but not amazing. 8 or so hours is what I get out of it on my skin, it can go a bit longer, depending on the climate that day. Update: Testing it out further, it can go up to 9, but that’s rare. Expect 7-8. Is it my favorite scent? Nope, but it is one that I could see myself wearing sometimes, even if it’s not really my style of cologne. Armani did a great job with this one and men in their 20s will probably really like wearing Absolu. Anyway, AdG Absolu, opens with the citrus notes, some pear/apple, wood, sea water, and tonka bean. It’s a very fresh aquatic, but is grounded with the woody notes, and doesn’t get too far into just being a citrus water fragrance; like so many others.

Natepnego dnia wącham nadgarstek.. nadal są wyczuwalne, nastepnie ubranie i tutaj zdecydowanie piersze co czuje to słodkosc - i moja pierwsza mysl Invictus albo 1 million tylko ze nie taki orientalny - czyli bez cynamonu lecz ta slodkosc jest bardziej owocowa + paczula. (ogolnie na ubraniu pachna tak slodko kwasnie) Acqua di Gio Absolu to orientalno-przyprawowy słodziak sygnowany marką Armani. Zapach zupełnie różny od pozostałych wypustów serii. It’s not really a mature scent, but not one that would only appeal to teenagers or college guys. I’m not sure that I’d wear this one on a formal occasion, but it would fit for everything else, no problem. Skews younger, but a cologne that can get a lot of use for that demographic. It is also versatile in terms of when it can be worn. It can go casual or for something to wear at the office or out for an evening on the town.Choć zapach zbiera pozytywne opinie otoczenia, brak mi w nim samczego zadzioru… ale w końcu to acqua o przeznaczeniu odświeżającym.

Znane z wersji podstawowej czy też Profondo odświeżające akcenty wodne, w Absolu zastąpiono słodkim landrynkowym ulepkiem, wzbogaconym nieco przez dochodzące po pewnym czasie go głosu akordy drzewne, korzenne oraz lekko ambrowe.This is older than AdG Profondoas a release, but that resin, woods, and marine aroma have significant overlap between the two. Profondo is just a better scent overall. It’s closest comparisons are that Invictus, Profondo, the original AdG, and I guess Absolu Instinct (but I haven’t tried that out).
