It depends on the time of day and occasion. I tend to prefer Essenza for day and casual wear and Profumo for night, evening out and more formal occasions. They are both great fragrances. I'm not as fond of the original, but it is still very good, in my opinion.
Your video has been a great help. I've been using Acqua di Gio for about 4 years now, remaining loyal to it, especially to the Essenca, since the first time; Ive been giving many compliments from people through out the years; thats why i tend not to change what i wear perfumewise. Last time I bought the Essenze, i saw the Profumo, i smelled it, and i think because of my loyalty to the essenza, i stuck with the essenza; So now im out again, and im thinking about getting the Profumo this time, simply for a change of wear. Looking at your video i think im just gonna do it... Also, you put your video great together, youve given a great review. Thanks greatly. Greeting from the Netherlands.
All the appreciations to your video brother! I totally agree with you will all the 3 frags! But I must say,they have added a magic potion in Profumo! Scent of the Gods! Cheers brother!!
I tested Essenza today. Hot at 36C. Humid. Sprayed on my neck, chest and shirt. Turned into skin scent after 2 hours but smelled really clean and refreshing. The scent on the shirt lasted for about 6 hours. This is so far the best cologne I've ever had.
Joy. Amazing work so far mate. Love your humility in presentation. Exactly opposite to Jeremy whose style, energy and vibe I also like a lot. Can u please do a video of the fragrances that project and last well in our conditions (Indian humid weather) during the daytime. I took my Sauvage to India which is a performance beast in my opinion when I am here in Melbourne Australia. In India I just could not smell it at all even after doubling the no of sprays I usually do when I am in Australia.
You KILLED IT AGAIN with the REVIEW JOY!! I actually just BOUGHT the BIGGEST bottle of ADG ESSENZA today and I DO NOT REGRET IT AT ALL!! KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK my friend!! 😊👍🏽
Hi Joy, great comparison review, you hit the nail on its head! I have and love all three, but use the original only in extrem heat/humidity as a cologne, Essenza as normal day time perfume and on colder days or night I go with Profumo. Looking forward to you in depth review of Essenza. BR, Dan.
PE red is always gonna be in my collection.i treat it as an original fragrance because to my nose they are different in many ways and it lasts and projects better
Big fan amin bhai ,from India.Thanks for ur review.Blindly going for essenza bcoz of ur advice instead of perfumo.I live in Chennai n it gets extremely hot in here in summer.So essenza is going to b my fuel for the next 3 months.Only bcoz of ur advice.Perfumo smell was gr8 at the shop too
Great video and informative advice. I live in a cold country - Sweden! Or winters go down to -20C and summers are rarely over 25C. Sounds like I should go with the Profumo?
I will use Profumouhh, summer scent and Spring especially. It's a good signature scent just like the other ADGs are. Its just incense slightly more mature feeling/cooler weather. Not so tropical heat. It's a bit cooler overall, all the time. Here in Finland
I sniffed Essenza for the first time and almost choked the smell was just too overpowering.. however, the Profumo is the baddest, lovely, sexy and magical.. I just got the Profumo Special Blend and I tested both and you can tell there is a little bit difference overall they are both amazing..wondering if you have sniffed the Special Blend..thanks
Hi Joy, Excellents reviews! I spend my weekend watching them. Usually I work in suit. Can i use Essenza or Profumo for work office? I smell them on my shirt last week , but i felt like essenza doesn't last at all, or maybe it's the comparison with profumo dry down.. ? Greeting from Paris, France.
Essenza, hands down. I got the ADG original in old formula, but it just sits there in my wine cooler. For some reason I grow out of it. So, I have been using some other fragrances in summer until I came across Essenza. Now, I spray Platinum Egoist, Gorse, Essenza, Allure Homme Edition Blanche, etc in summer. I tried Profumo and I din't like it. Too dark and spicy. Just not my type. Also, my friend uses it through out the four seasons and I didn't like what he was projecting.
For Asian or middle easterns or Indo/Pak. Try Perfumo on your skin and leave it and smell back. For most people it won’t work. Dry down on skin for that region is nasty. Perhaps due to our diet or etc. For Europeans it works different on their skin
Nice video! The original reminds me of the nineties when I was in elementary school and pretty much all the male teachers were wearing it :-) ADGP is also my favorite (and I'm not even 30 yet!).
the first one last diferently from day to day becouse of what you eat. what you eat influences the composition of your sweat and some chemicals can make smel fade away faster or worse,it can change the smell to something that you may not like. you should test it with one day eat spiced food,other day eat salty food,other day some fat food/sweeter. you will notice a diference in duration,projection and with the salty food ,even diferent smell.
Just got Essenza I love it still think the original smells the best but Essenza is growing on me excellent performance now I don't know which i like better
Thank you when you said its close to Perry Ellis 360 Red I knew then you know what you are talking about I tell people the same thing its very close to ADG
I think the original is still getting worse in longevity. I bought another bottle recently as my last ran out. Doesn't seem to last as long at all. I have profumo, love it but I think I'm over it. Essenza I got over. It became very sour smelling for some reason the more I wore it everyday.
Joy...would you sat that Essenza and Profumo smell the same as the original ADG EDT, but only stronger...or...are they three completely different scents?
I’ll give yous a tip ....Profumo.....it’s very strong I think 2 sprays is enough..it’s a beast.... Ps... the original is weak not for me ....nice scent tho .........thanks for the review
I just got the perfume bro with a small original for free does the perfumo smell like the original but stronger or nahh iam getting sick of taking back cologne to macys I hate sweet scentss
Do you think essenza worth to blind buy?! Btw I'm huge fan of the original i love it and i can't do without but i want it to be more rich and last longer so do you think essenza worth to blind buy?
Hello.... Joy ..... bold review ... but have u noticed last couple of months Essenza is out of Dhaka city and even I did not get at Istanbul airport.... maybe gio discontinuing essenza ....am I correct?
hi brother Joy Amin can u help me which is best for indian weather ADG essenza or perfumo i am from south its hot n humid sometimes here . i am confused help me pls
Hi thanks for your reviews, wanted to ask, which male fragrance would you recommend, that is not in a borderline of metrosexual? To be on the masculine side but still attractive.. Thanks in advance
One question: my ADG Essenza bottle is rather splashing instead spraying..I mean, if I spray on my shirt I get with a wet point, something that does not happen with other perfumes (Dior Sauvage, Versace - Pour Homme). Is it normal ? Or what I've got is a fake ? :/
I like how you’re calm and speak with a low tone.
Instead of these other loud you tubers who scream in their videos.
You’re cool and soft spoken
It is a fantastic reference about the three very similar fragrances, Thanks!
It depends on the time of day and occasion. I tend to prefer Essenza for day and casual wear and Profumo for night, evening out and more formal occasions. They are both great fragrances. I'm not as fond of the original, but it is still very good, in my opinion.
Which performs best in heat, humid climates? ?

Just purchased Profumo. I love all 3. So many memories with the original. Great vid.
thanks so much brother.given the collection you have, it means a big deal if you liked this line....indeed a legendary line :)
As someone who owns AdG and Profumo, is getting Essenza worth it?
Love your reviews, finally find a fragrance reviewer who have knowledge of Asian/mostly hot humid conditions.
All the appreciations to your video brother!
I totally agree with you will all the 3 frags!
But I must say,they have added a magic potion in Profumo!
Scent of the Gods!
Cheers brother!!

Most helpful review i have found on TH-cam. Helped me reach a decision. Keep up the good work going brother. 👍

thanks a lot brother.i love all three to be honest :)
Amazing video , My first perfume ADG 1998 . Today is so bad. 1998 was so strong and amazing. I Will buy THE other now.. thanks again
Exactly bro! I’ve been looking for the 96 version but today’s ADG is so watered down
well done this was needed!
haha, the chopper. you are golden! love your reviews and all. thanks, m8! greetings from germany.
Great comparison Joy! I'm definitely going to buy these one day. But as a temporary fix, ill keep using my Perry Ellis - 360 Red.
PE red is always gonna be in my collection.i treat it as an original fragrance because to my nose they are different in many ways and it lasts and projects better
I think the best is profumo. So classy , beautiful fragrance. It's my favourite fragrance of all time.
Joe Lloyd you WORLD recommended for a 19 years old?

Beautiful! Thank you!

It's a bit cooler overall, all the time. Here in Finland
for finland i think its perfect...development will be much nicer on skin
Amin ... here in Holland , profumo is a BEAST !!!!! Haha believe me my skin is not easy !
I sniffed Essenza for the first time and almost choked the smell was just too overpowering.. however, the Profumo is the baddest, lovely, sexy and magical..

well said
but for India Pakistan Bangladesh etc
ADG Essenza works best

Great review as always! Love from DR Congo
wow.. so informative. great job Joy. now I know what not to buy.
Essenza is my fav by far. Profumo is too powdery on the drydown.
Good luck to Bangladesh in the cricket match against India today. Let's see you in the final. Nice vid joy. 🇧🇩🇵🇰
thanks a lot bro.we didnt play a per our talent and india was way more pro in the game.goodluck for the finals :) ill be enjoying that game
Damn. That was a damn good comparison video. Thanks.
Lol he always pats the bottle with his hands
Which performs best in heat, humid climates? ?
i like the clear bottle of essenza and the smell of profumo.
So profumo smells better everybody saying ezzensa I got the the perfumo
Finally, now I can make my desicion to grab essenza ! Thanks for the review! #fromMalaysia

I’ll give yous a tip ....Profumo.....it’s very strong I think 2 sprays is enough..it’s a beast....
Ps... the original is weak not for me ....nice scent tho .........thanks for the review

Hello.... Joy ..... bold review ... but have u noticed last couple of months Essenza is out of Dhaka city and even I did not get at Istanbul airport.... maybe gio discontinuing essenza ....am I correct?
I didnt see it at macyss
I have sample 1ml of the Profumo its smell very good on my skin
I own adg profumo and think that profumo is a perfume sutaible for serious business meetings
Thanks for your Asian perspective! I was having a hard time listening to a comparison video from cold countries.
hi brother Joy Amin can u help me which is best for indian weather ADG essenza or perfumo i am from south its hot n humid sometimes here . i am confused help me pls
Excellent video
Great audio quality
2.5yrs after this review which do you find pulling for?
brother what's the price of acqua de gio.. in BD or malaysia ? any idea
Where do yo get your fragrances from?
in bangladesh we have a few known trusted sellers who import originals only
great review!
thanx for review bro
i have both the profumo and the originator should i get the Essenza? normal weather where i live is 5-20 Degree C.
The Essenza is better for warmer days for its crisp freshness. Profumo is better for colder days for its smoky/earthy base.
Hi thanks for your reviews, wanted to ask, which male fragrance would you recommend, that is not in a borderline of metrosexual? To be on the masculine side but still attractive.. Thanks in advance
platinum egoiste by chanel :)
Thanks! I had watched your review that you made about this fragrance just minutes ago, I will check it, just hope they have it here where I'm living.
One question: my ADG Essenza bottle is rather splashing instead spraying..I mean, if I spray on my shirt I get with a wet point, something that does not happen with other perfumes (Dior Sauvage, Versace - Pour Homme). Is it normal ? Or what I've got is a fake ? :/
Cosmin Panzariuc Broken sprayer probably
Have essenza and Profumo Amazing colognes.
i got cool water tester 125 ml and tommy 100ml
Profumo by miles!
Thanks bro I just brought it is it a fresh scent like the original or nah I luvv fresh scents not sweet
plz review udv and titan skinn perfumes please..
Hi, is there any difference in juice between 75ml & 180ml
Just an information
In India if any one wants smell like Aqua di Gio in budget try Westside's "Wes Navy"
Get essenza
Essenza is my favorite fasho
This comparison is soooo on point! I may get the essenza after i sample it for a bit. Thanks! Please rate and subscribe to my review on Profuomo EDP.
Can u review Gucci guilty ? Ty!

For me - Essenza is not the same as adg original.. Its fresher profumo
