Giorgio Armani Acqua Di Gio Cologne Spray for Men — 

My husband is not a frequent wearer of fragrances, but every now and then I think a subtle men's scent makes a nice gift for him.  He tends to shy away from any cologne that is overly strong or musky.  However, he does appreciate those fragrances that have a more casual smell.  When I got a whiff of Acqua Di Gio by Giorgio Armani, I knew I had a cologne for my hubby to try.

Acqua Di Gio is described an aquatic scent with "citrus notes, rosemary spiciness, jasmine, hint of wood and ocean breezes."  That combination gives it a masculine sea, air, and earth quality that makes an impression, but doesn't try too hard.  However, to get a bottle of this aquatic elixir, you'll have to be willing to part with at least $50 for 3.4 ounce of Eau De Toilette Spray.  Not inexpensive, but not wildly outlandish either.

Acqua di Gio by Giorgio Armani is the right cologne choice for men looking for a fresh, crisp, and woody fragrance.  My husband gave a nod of approval when he sniffed it, so that's enough reason for me to buy it.

Sounds like a nice fragrance. I don't like it too heavy, either. :>
