CaliGuy Posted December 11, 2009 Posted December 11, 2009 Aqua di Gio OR Armani Code I ask because my friends and I were at the mall getting gifts for friends when the topic of cologne came up. I use Code but was told that women much prefer Aqua di Gio. Well I tried it and it doesn't smell good to me. I realize the purpose of cologne is to smell good to women so if you had a choice between the two, which would you pick. I realize there are other brands out there but I am talking specifically about these two.
Malenfant Posted December 11, 2009 Posted December 11, 2009 i dont know as i havent smelt them but i like deep, sandlewoody type fragrances, as opposed to the aqua-ish fresh smells. I bought my H 'The One' by D&G and he really liked it.
CarrieT Posted December 11, 2009 Posted December 11, 2009 Personally, I HATE cologne (and perfume) on all people. But I used to write about wine and having people come to wine tastings reeking of an aroma that disturbed smelling the wines was a big pet-peeve of mine. Now I just realize that I have a very sensitive nose and most colognes and perfumes smell horrifically artificial to me.
sumdude Posted December 11, 2009 Posted December 11, 2009 Aqua di Gio OR Armani Code I'm no lady but my last GF really like the Aqua di Gio on me.
Pizzaman81 Posted December 11, 2009 Posted December 11, 2009 I'm no lady but my last GF really like the Aqua di Gio on me. Ditto, I have Aqua de Gio and it's great
Author CaliGuy Posted December 11, 2009 Author Posted December 11, 2009 I like Armani Code. Hmm just one vote. I guess what doesn't make me wretch might smell good to others but Aqua di Gio reall was like "bleh".... Would love more input!
MSUE Posted December 11, 2009 Posted December 11, 2009 I'm here lol I like di gio...I find it very manly and sexy
jerbear Posted December 11, 2009 Posted December 11, 2009 I know many people like Aqua di Gio but I'm leaning toward the other Armani products. Armani Aqua di Gio Armani Code (I had a few friends who voted that the most feminine of the 3)
bluewolf17 Posted December 12, 2009 Posted December 12, 2009 Armani Code! It smells good. But Aqua does smell good, but it reminds me of all the boys from my high school. They all wore it and too much! I think I got burnt out. My BF wears Burberry..I love it!
New Again Posted December 12, 2009 Posted December 12, 2009 Smelling out of the bottle, I'd have to say Aqua di Gio. HOWEVER. It doesn't really matter what it smells like out of the bottle. It depends on how it smells on YOU. If Aqua is stinky or just "eh" on you and Code smells sexy on you...go with Code. Women like men who smell good. I don't think it really matters what you're wearing if it smells nice on you. And this is coming from someone who's #1 turn on is scent.
Ingenue Posted December 12, 2009 Posted December 12, 2009 I'd say neither as well. I suggest a really nice smelling soap, or a fresh laundry smell. I know when the guy I'm dating smells like laundry or fresh soap, I just like sidling up to him and giving him a whiff (in a completely non-pornographic way).

If Aqua is stinky or just "eh" on you and Code smells sexy on you...go with Code. Women like men who smell good. I don't think it really matters what you're wearing if it smells nice on you. Spot on...I was just coming back to say this. Your personal body chemistry will alter whatever scent you wear, better or worse. Go with what works for you and whatever you feel most confident in.
