Acqua di Giò - Parfum Elixir

Great Scent

This is my first acqua di gio perfume and I really enjoyed it. The scent is quite strong and it has a bold/masculine smell. I really enjoyed this spray. The bottle is very nice and the magnetic lid adds a cool touch.

Not an overpowering parfum. Just right

This is a very nice sweet violet leaf scent. It does not have a strong projection compared to other parfums. You can smell the scent if you’re close enough the who is wearing it. You can wear it to any occasion you go to. It is packaged in a short thick glass.

Great aqua di Gio release

The packaging its same as the other aqua di gio flankers, the scent is strength the first 3 hours projects is a lot and then turns like skin scent, good sillage, very unique and different from the other aqua di gio flankers, versatility for all year unfortunately they don’t release a bigger bottle only 50 ml for now

Rich Scent

This fragrance gives a perfect balance of fresh and depth. Upon first spray you automatically get a fresh soft breeze of the early morning. The bottle has a sleek black finish. The dry down is absolute magic. Would definitely add it to my collection.

Mature scent

Let’s start with presentation. The bottle is clean and sophisticated with a nice top that is magnetic, making usability somewhat enjoyable. Now the scent. I think it has a slight hint of the Original, but definitely a unique new fragrance. To me it’s more of a grown up scent. It gives me a feel between essential oils and older generation fragrance like a polo green, not saying it’s smells like Polo just that it gives that vibe. All in all it’s a great fragrance for someone more mature, definitely good to see(smell) something different from all the sweet fragrances that have been the trend lately. Definitely recommend.

Worth it

This has quickly become my go-to scent. It starts off fresh with bergamot and mandarin, then settles into something rich and smooth with violet leaf and patchouli. Just a couple sprays last all day, and the bottle looks sleek and classy. Pricey, but totally worth it for the quality and longevity.

Best one yet!

As a devoted admirer of the Acqua di Gio collection, the arrival of Elixir felt like the turning of a new page in a beloved story—and what a chapter it is. From the first spray, it enchants: a symphony of fresh aquatic notes dancing effortlessly with warm, aromatic woods and a whisper of spice. It’s as if the sea met twilight and bottled the moment. The magnetic cap, sleek and deliberate, is a subtle nod to the elegance within—form meeting function with quiet confidence. Elixir feels made for crisp air and cool evenings, where its depth truly blooms, but it wears just as beautifully under city lights and night skies. It carries the soul of Acqua di Gio, yet dares to dream differently, offering a refined evolution of a classic. If you’re drawn to scents that speak in layers—bold yet graceful, familiar yet new—let this one find its place on your skin. It’s not just a fragrance; it’s a feeling.

Great Smell, great longevity

ADG Elixir is a lot better than I expected. Opens with an ozonic violet leaf predominating the other notes. Not a ton of the ADG DNA at first. As it dries down, strong green elements pop up and the aquatic-spicy DNA of the original comes out, with the violet leaf still playing a major role. Toward the mid the green notes fall away and you're left with an ambroxan base with violet leaf. This is the stage where I'm reminded most of the original DNA. This is an elegant and smooth fragrance, for sure. Longevity is great at 8+ hours. A few sprays have lasted work days. Sillage is moderate. Not as bad as some here have stated in my experience. A solid 8.0/10. Cost aside, this is a good scent objectively - a great one if you love the profile

Pretty good perfume

I am personally a fan of the ADG scent DNA. This one, like all the others, starts of fresh citrusy and then slowly evolves to somewhat smoky, woody, and leather towards the dry down on my skin. The perfume has a moderate sillage and pretty good longevity. Overall it’s an amazing perfume for all weather and occasions.

Elegant cologne

This is easily one of the most professional and refined colognes l've ever smelled. It has a warm, sophisticated scent that makes it perfect for winter, but it's versatile enough to be worn in summer, especially for elegant or formal occasions. The longevity is impressive, it lasts all day and projects widely. It's probably not ideal for very casual wear, as the scent leans more elegant and upscale. The bottle design is sleek and classy, featuring a magnetic cap that snaps into place smoothly, adding to the premium feel. I would highly recommend this for any special occasions.

Love it

Absolute love this scent. It’s a delight to wear out anywhere I go. The packaging design is super cool and wonderful to look at. It’s a very versatile fragrance that I can wear anywhere
