The review
Strong contender. That is where Deep Waters Absolute lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Acqua di Giò Absolu.
Scentual Obsessions lists 12 of the 12 notes in Acqua di Giò Absolu's pyramid — sea notes, bergamot, pear, apple and grapefruit and more, which is the whole brief; and it adds patchouli and labdanum of its own.
At $133 per 100ml it costs 62% less than Acqua di Giò Absolu — the 3rd cheapest of 3 twins we can price.
Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.
