Armani, Acqua di Giò

Another spectacular fragrance for men, the Acqua di Giò’s naturalness and authenticity evoke the sea and aquatic elements. The fragrance is mythical and has a fresh and aquatic scent. The hyacinth note opens with a light touch of Calabrian bergamot, neroli, and green mandarin. The light aquatic notes combine the scent of jasmine, pungent, helianthus, rosemary, and persimmon with a fruity soul and spicy Indonesian patchouli to give life to a fresh and sensual fragrance for men. With such a great combination of ingredients and notes, this eau de toilette gives a natural and genuine atmosphere along with a woody marine freshness.

Guerlain, L’Homme Idéal

The ideal man might be a myth, but his fragrance will always be a reality. Guerlain has decoded men’s aspirations and created the ideal concentration for them - L’Homme Idéal Eau de Toilette. It is a transcendent almond from the top notes to the base notes and seems to have derived inspiration from Jicky. Experience the captivating, seductive, and mysterious scent of this Eau de Toilette from Guerlain. The scent revolves around 3 accords: the intelligence of a sparkling and perfectly fresh top note: citrus, rosemary, and orange blossom; the beauty of an incredibly sensual “amaretto” heart note based on an almond/tonka bean duo, and the strength of a woody leather base note that is definitely masculine. The square, facetted, and refined bottle is elegant and draws its elegant lines from Guerlain’s heritage model. The heavy, matte cap borrows its details from the world of watchmaking. It is the perfect choice for those looking for an everyday fragrance.

From the February 2023 issue of L’Officiel India.
