The review

Acqua di Gio scores 4.1 out of 10 on paper — a long shot territory for anyone chasing Acqua di Gio.

Zoha Aroma sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Acqua di Gio's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

At $108 per 100ml it costs 17% less than Acqua di Gio — the 13th cheapest of 15 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.

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Zoha Aroma publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.

What it's built to smell like

Giorgio Armani Acqua di Gio is lime, lemon and bergamot at first, sea notes, jasmine and calone at its heart and white musk, cedar and oakmoss at the end. Zoha Aroma set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.
