Giorgio Armani Acqua di Giò Profondo Eau de Parfum 50ml Spray is the deeper, more aquatic interpretation of the iconic Acqua di Giò line for men — launched in 2020 and composed by Alberto Morillas. Profondo (Italian for "deep") translates the brand's signature marine chord into a darker, more mineral register: bergamot and aquatic notes opening on a heart of rosemary, lavender and cypress, drying down on patchouli, musk, mineral amber and sea-salt accord.
About Giorgio Armani
Giorgio Armani is one of the most influential Italian luxury fashion houses, founded by Giorgio Armani in Milan in 1975. Its perfumery — produced under licence with L'Oréal — has produced enduring pillars from Acqua di Giò to Armani Code. The Acqua di Giò line, originally launched in 1996, is one of the most successful modern masculine franchises in fragrance; Profondo extends the line into a darker, more aquatic register.

The story behind Profondo
Profondo reinterprets the Acqua di Giò DNA through a deeper, more mineral lens — an aquatic interpretation of a Mediterranean coastline at night rather than at midday. The opening is recognisably the line's signature marine chord; the rosemary-and-cypress heart adds aromatic Mediterranean depth; and the mineral-amber base lends a darker, sea-salt-tinged dry-down. The flacon is a deep blue iteration of the recognisable Acqua di Giò shape.
Who it's for
Suited to wearers who love sophisticated, aquatic-aromatic masculines with a slightly darker register — fans of Bleu de Chanel EDP, Versace Eros Parfum or the original Acqua di Giò Profumo will find Profondo a familiar match. Year-round wear with particular strength in spring, summer and warm-weather travel; ideal for daytime, work and dressed-up daily use.
How to wear it
- Spray onto pulse points — wrists, base of the throat, behind the ears — from around 15cm.
- Two to three sprays for daytime; build up gently for evening wear.
- Apply over an unscented body lotion to extend longevity on skin.
