Acqua Di Gio - Why Is It So Popular?
What is it about Giorgio Armani's Acqua Di Gio men's cologne that makes it such a hit?

Check out the Amazon.com page for this product and you will find, as of this writing, more than 85 customer reviews, most of them favorable. Though I must admit I have a little trouble really believing this guy:

I don't know how many times I've had random girls tell me, "you smell so good." It happens everywhere. One time I was walking out of the door from one of my college classes and a girl said, "Is that Acqua Di Gio?" I said, "Yes, it is." And she just sighed. Another time I was at the dentist and the cute dental assistant girl told me that I smelled really good. The last time I wore it was out to an upscale bar in Phoenix and I literally had girls pulling me towards them so they can smell me. This stuff is amazing. I have never worn something that gets girls as crazy as this. Hot damn.

This one is a little more credible:

This scent is a hit with all the ladies in my life; family, friends, coworkers, random women in restaurants, right down to my oh so significant other. I'm a young guy, and this is a great scent that I can wear to work, to class, or out to dinner and know I smell great for the occasion. Its the kind of fragrance that subtly exudes masculinity rather than clubs people over the head with it. I love it and I can tell you the women in your life will love it too.

Here is a review from a woman who likes male cologne:

I have always dated men who wear this cologne. Not on purpose but I always seem to find or smell men who wear this scent. My mother calls it sex in a bottle. The scent is light and pleasant but still smells like a man should smell.

And another:

I bought this for a birthday gift for my husband. He likes it, and I love it. Expensive perhaps, but worth it. Now I just need to wait for him to finish the bottle of that old stuff he has.

And a touch of realism:

This is just an awesome smelling cologne. The biggest problem is it is also the most popular. Every guy has it. So if you want to smell like every other guy go ahead and get it. If you want a unique scent that you want women to only think of you when they smell it, get something else. I remember when I wore it I couldn't help but think of other guys I had smelt it on.

Check out Amazon.com for the latest discount prices - fully one-third off the retail price as this is being written.
