***Essenza was not included because I’ve never tried it, so don’t own it. This was specified in the video!****
Brooklyn Fragrance Lover oh my man get your nose on essenza ..... IMO it’s better than Profumo and too many ppl sleep on it while over hyping Profumo which for me dried down to just incense and egg
Fair point.
Tie for 1st: Acqua di Gio and Essenza
3rd: Profumo
I was talked into Essenza when it first dropped instead of getting the orig. And I like the orig.better after smelling it later on.
Same here. I own Essenza because it's stronger than the original, but if there were an EDP version of the original, it would be hard to pass up. It's shockingly hard to find good options for spring/summer, and Essenza is the only thing I own that isn't a tonka/vanilla/musk bomb, so I wear it all the time.
RIP Carlos 🙏
Glad I found your channel Carlos...love it!! I even like the opening 70's pseudo quasi disco theme. I get it and I dig it! 😘💜😎
Thank you very much. I don’t understand some people. Do they go into someone’s house and say “I don’t like your curtains, you should take them down”
I'm wearing Profumo right now and when she said "Wet Paper" I instantly paired the image with the smell and she's absolutely right! It's obviously deeper than that and it's in my top 5 but she just blew me away. Love your channel.
Absolu is absolutely the best aqua di gio.
Don’t get the hype of Profumo anyway, for me it smells boring as hell.
Profumo is my favorite. And Tiff always looks good.
Absolu my favorite. I think profumo is good but a bit too spicy, absolu is better because more people like those type of frags than the profumo type in my experience.
Enjoyed the review - nice to see Tiff weigh in on these 3 fragrances. Recently smelled Absolu. This Fragrance will get mass appeal love.
Thank you so much for keeping it 100 Tiff !!!! I have never liked Acqua do Gio despite the “hype” it’s just not great but I think like any other community there are hype beasts they’ll give it a pass because it’s “classic” I think it does smell outdated. And Profumo smells ok in the air but it doesn’t really mix well with my skin ... good honest vid
I wore the original A.D.G on wedding day.
I must try the new one.
Thanks for review guys.
😉
Always great content guys!!
Thanks Ryan!
I love this channel! You're the reason I bought Jo Malone Myrrh & Tonka.
Bro ! Love your reviews!
Thanks
Your guests are amazing.
MOOOAAARRRR!!!!
BTW i love Absolu Instinct with Profumo coming in 2nd.
My god she is pretty. I watched the whole review and didnt hear one iotta of what was said.
This was a great video idea carlos! :)
Apparently not everyone thinks so because there wasn’t Essenza in it lol. Thank you
Depending on the season and occasion and mood I'm in I love all 3 of them.
Love it when there is a difference in opinion. It makes for a better, honest discussion, and provides more than one point of view. The more noses, the merrier! 😁
I knew she was going to pick Aqua Di Gio Absolu. I saw her mention it in one of her videos.
I love her reaction for the original.... i haven’t smelled yet the original and the profumo. But i did smell the absolu and really really liked it.
Profumo all the wayyy! I would have sent you my bottle of Essenza to use for the video Carlos!
Chaos Fragrances Thanks Dallas. Very sweet of you bro
Essenza and Profumo are the best in the ADG family
I have the Profumo Special Blend which is the only AdG I have after years of not using AdG.
I like this original the best. Not because of the smell but for good memory.
Gotta get my hands on Absolute, I really like Profumo and if both of you like it then...it is a must!! Tiff is stunning as always
I can see what Tiff means, I bought profumo over the original. But years before I really liked the original. Though a classic the flankers are so solid! I also don't have Essenza but I need to try this next to the original again to see which one I like better.
Thanks for watching Ed
Profumo for me for sure. Love your shirt Carlos, great style.
Paul Esp Thanks! Birthday present from mom
Tiff is precious. Like the way she presents herself. Miss Carlos. A very talented person. His reviews were always to the point and honest.
One of my favorite houses I actually just purchased acqua di gio absolu smells nice
Awesome Di Gio face-off review with the sensational Tiff B.
Thanks!
I’m not into Absolu. I recently bought this one package at Macy’s for the original ADG cause that’s my personal favorite. It comes with the 6.7oz & two sample sprayers. One being Absolu & in my opinion, it has a smell that’s for older guys. Older as in like for the grandpas.
I’m a 23 year old so I like the fresh, aquatic scent of the OG
Ok, I love original ADG!!! But this review has me curious about the two flankers!!! I’ll have to stop by Macy’s and try it out!!! Thanks for another great review!!! ☮️🖖🏽
So had the Aqua Di Gio gone bad, or she just didn’t like it?
I haven't tried Absolu . . . but like Essenza better than the others.
Thanks for sharing . . . .
Arden Powers thanks for watching
yes essenza top 1 adg
Armani lately with SI came out with "too light" fragrances , armani has fine tastes but even prive' line is honestly too light fragrances should from my point of view be lasting and bold ....this doesn't mean I do not like armani on the contrary I use Armani gio , SI passion,Acqua di gio sky for my hair and clothing ....my favourites are the whole range of HERMES....
Love your videos Sir....
As you said fragrances are subjective and based on moods
Thanks for sharing God bless
When I first smelled the Absolu, I did fell in love with for awhile but later I thought it was still good. So I still like it alot. I think the Profumo is gonna be great for awhile but I wouldn't be afraid to try the Absolu, cause so many people now especially in my town loves and has Acqua Giorgio Armani and the Profumo. I wanted something popular but not too popular in my town, I didn't want to smell like everyone else. I tell you what I can get compliments from the Absolu no doubt, just hasn't gotten the love like the other two did.
Tiff's reaction is priceless!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I love profumo and I love the Absolu!
Dang Tiff's demeanor is just beaitiful.. love this gal :)
Profumo is a lovely fragrance & incense definitely added some pizzazz to it . Nice review Carlos !
Tiff is lovely to watch and listen 2. Her hair is beautiful! Jesus loves you Carlos and Tiff!!!
Great video Carlos, I'll definitely be picking up Absolu....but is it me or is Tiff acting a bit like she's high or drunk??? Just wondering, I don't recall ever seeing her like this haha, she's so gorgeous though!
i just got a tester of absolu today. smells great! havent smelled essenza tho hope its good :)
It's really tricky with the fragrance game. I can't tell you how many fragrances I've tried and immediately put in to the caca category only to end up liking it later on down the road. This was my experience with Profumo ( I didn't like it after testing it the first three times now I love it) as well as Royal Water ( I hated it I thought it way too feminine now I love it). Don't worry I will try absolute a few more times to see if my opinion changes.
Me too , Hated VUI but now love it, the same with Aqua Amara. Give it time and you'll be surprised.
Good vid, Tiff beauty as always... I went to Macy’s to pick up Absolu, the lady behind the counter said they ran out, is that even possible?
Sure it is
Love her smile.
Is Perry Ellis 360 red better than all 3 of these? I've gone out wearing and drew allot of pleasant attention, it just smells great in the air.
Don’t know. Never tried it.
360 perry Ellis red is definitely better than the original ADG because it almost smells exactly the same but just a tad more spicy and way more longer lasting for a fraction of the cost. it's not better than Profumo. I haven't smell essenza or absolu. I love Profumo personally though.
I know I'm a little late to the party but I've smelled them all and own 2, OG and Absolu, and I gotta tell ya, i like the smell better and get more compliments with the Absolu
The more vintage Acqua di gio are way better, my family has had Acqua di gio since it first came out and it always has been my most favorite cologne and I got one recently and it doesn’t last as long and the lemon is to strong which is a bummer.
I have all ADG fragances and Profumo is my favorite by far
Lots of hate on Acqua di Gio Absolu.... that means I need to try this.
I'm glad I've been warned about not judging it based on the color of juice or bottle top because most people that see the bottle (including myself) would expect a more boozy or an Amber heavy Frag. If I bought a Whiskey or Rum and expecting it to taste the way it looks and instead got an experience akin to a Gin or a vodka I would be disappointed.
She is Absolu-Tley GORGEOUS!!!!😍😍😍😍😍
Rip BrooklynFragranceLover
How'd I miss this video😮......I'm hearing that Essenza is being discontinued 😪 I need to get my nose on the newest addition. Peace!! ✌️
For what it's worth, I love Absolu the moment I tried it. I never liked Profumo and I'm with her on the original... dated smell.
I had a large bottle of Aqua Di Gio and I really think the last of the bottle had turned or something. The last few sprays in the bottle just didn't smell right. I'm still not sure if it was my imagination or not.
It happens over time. Especially if its eau de toilette instead of parfum. It has a lower concentration of fragrance and higher alcohol content, which is why it can denature quicker
She is amazing
Wonderful review with Tiff. Is perfumo good for summer?
I would say so
What about essenza?
Great review Carlos. Have any of your fragances gone bad? I am worried because I have 75 and some of them are niche. I have them in their original box in a dark and cool place. I ask because you mention this about your original ADG. Thanks for replying.
Sergio Davalos if you’re storing them as you say, you’ll be just fine!
Thanks a lot Carlos! I sincerely appreciate your response. Keep the great work. I am a loyal subscriber since more than a year ago and many of my purchases have been based on your great reviews. Regards from Mexico.
my God Tiff is breathtaking! I gotta get my nose on Absolute, but right now Profumo is my favorite.
Great comparison video Los. Loved Tiff's opinion/nose. Im a major fan of profumo. Have been hearing horrific reviews on the absolu... but if Tiff loves it, then i gotta try it
Thanks and I appreciate you stopping by
Jheeze, her lovely smile was distracting was trying to focus on the review haha
"More richer", exactly what I've been looking for.
Did u buy it
I like the original because I don't want to stand out and it gives me good memories. Thank God no one else wears it
The Absolu is underrated. I predict it will fly under the radar for now and pick up in sales as more people smell it. I'd like to see more ladies reactions to this. I tried it on two girls and they loved it.
That Lauryn shirt is dope!
4:18 , lol!!!! "with the hands"
Whenever I see Tiff I always think High End🎆
Hahaha Tiff's non verbal reactions on ADG classic are hilarious!
Carlos you got swag bro lol
Thanks man
I'm a woman who wears men's cologne. I like to think I have a pretty good taste. I've always hated the original Acqua di Gio. I'll never understand why it's the best selling cologne. I do not like it at all. But then again I'm not into "fresh" scents. Haven't tried the other two but if it has patchouly and incense I'm most likely going to love it.
Tested Absolu at Macy's. Its very pleasant, but I can literally name 10 fragrances off the top of my head that smell just like it or better. Profumo is a modern classic imo
I agree with Tiff da more time i spend with absolu da more i love it cant understand y ppl like profumo over it
Profumo is my champion signature scent.. Good job tiff and Carlos 👍🏻
Got my first complement from using the absolu, she said it was strong smelling, I did put in an extra squirt lol. I asked if she didn’t like it and she said no she liked it a lot but that it was strong she asked what it was so I told her. She said she’s smelt a similar scent to it before probably from the there ones, either way I know to just put 1 squirt instead of 3. It carries well and for a long time.
Well there ya go!
It's basically Armanis version of Invictus aqua
does any of these have cannabis?
I have the biggest crush on Tiff lol she's absolutely stunning 💕
Could someone send a sample of Essenza to this gentleman, I heard is really nice too
LOL it’s easily accessible I’ll go look for it
Absolu smells real good. Last longer on the body as well.
That was eye opening..
Smelling Profumo on paper does it no justice. It has to be put on skin. My wife loves Absolu. I wish you had let Tiff smell Profumo on skin but it was still a good review! Tiff did this one some well deserved justice!!!
Tiff drops a bomb. LOL Then another. Having feinted, I got up off the floor to comment. I love surprises!
LOL
Profumo the Best ❤
Tiff is absolutely gorgeous
RIP FAM RIP 🍻🙏 your legacy will Live On Forever
how come the OG ADG doesn't excite you
Carlos, besides the Essenza version, you should include the “Special Blend”...Is it smoother, richer, sweeter than Profumo?
I just started laughing thinking of Tiff’s last snap a few videos ago. Tiff: ”I said I don’t like it....”, Carlos: “Oh no you didn’t just shut me down...!” 😂
Tiff is just amazing 🥃👍🏾😉
Carlos that shirt really looks good on you. Anyways, i liked the review and I'm going to agree with Tiff. Absolu is my fav. Followed by Profumo and then the original.
Thanks! Birthday present from mama
Beautiful for Tiff is an understatement, she's breathe taking
OLAOLUWA DARAMOLA I'm sorry I don't see that. Lol
get compliments on Absolu all the time.
I have to agree with Tiff
Lol she really hated the original. Makes sense since most people associate it with frat boys. Hated the Absolu at first but now i'm starting to understand its purpose
Original is very transparent very fizzy water which is very versatyle
None are seductive sexy head turners for me, just decent casual mass appealing fragrances for warmer weather. If sexiness is the goal, I reach for YSL L' Homme or RL Purple Label.
i prefer profumo :) have not tried the essenza either :/
Absolu
Essenza
My favorites
That's niceee
I haven’t tried absolu yet but for me essenza is better than Profumo ... the bottle I have dries down to too much incense and egg .... essenza > Profumo
That L Boogie shirt!👌🏾
Love you as a couple...so nice.
Am I the only one that doesn't pick up on the aquatic vibe of the original or profumo?
I have to smell the absolute. It’s getting hate just like suavage did but all the ladies love it. Seem like this is going the same route.
Corey Rene I’ve smelled it recently and wore it for a day. Last super long, it smells very young but it’s not bad. I prefer the Purfumo version I’m 28 years old.
Agreed
Micheal Wilborn1 I’ll wait until it discounted. I’m 36 so no rush when I have Profumo.
Corey Rene I just purchased the Armani aqua dio absolu its actually smells nice
Micheal Wilborn1 I’m Thirty-Four and prefer Aqua Di Gio Absolu over Profumo. Age doesn’t matter when it comes to fragrance. That’s just stupid.
That’s like saying you don’t play with barbie dolls or have tea parties with your daughter because you’re a male-a manly male and men don’t play with girl dolls.
