Alberto Morillas

"Acqua di Giò Profumo is a darker, more mature reinterpretation of the original Acqua di Giò DNA, pairing marine freshness with smoky incense and earthy patchouli. Introduced in 2015, it is widely recognized as one of the most successful flankers in the line and was created by Alberto Morillas. The scent opens with crisp bergamot and aquatic facets, then moves into an aromatic heart centered on sage, rosemary, and geranium. Its defining signature emerges in the base, where incense adds mineral smoke and patchouli lends depth and masculine structure. Compared with the original Acqua di Giò, Profumo is more formal, more evening-leaning, and better suited to transitional or cooler weather. It has also developed a strong enthusiast following, especially after being discontinued in favor of later Acqua di Giò Parfum releases."

Reviews Summary

“User and reviewer feedback consistently describes Acqua di Giò Profumo as a masterpiece flanker that preserves the recognizable aquatic freshness of Acqua di Giò while adding a smoky incense and patchouli depth. It is frequently praised for smelling more mature, refined, and versatile than the original, especially for evenings and smart-casual or formal wear. Community sentiment also reflects strong nostalgia and high demand following discontinuation, with many users preferring vintage or earlier bottles over later Acqua di Giò Parfum replacements. Performance is generally regarded as above average, with solid longevity and noticeable projection without becoming overwhelming.”
