This is the fragrance that really got me obsessed and launched me onto the trajectory of my current collection (along with the fragrance review community). Shame it's longevity is completely shit and it loses the fresh punch of the open so quickly. What I would give to have a vintage bottle of this, or even just a bottle of Essenza...
I bought Perry Ellis Red 360 because everyone was saying it is a pretty perfect clone of ADG. It is not! It is like Lemon Pledge, lacking the smooth, crisp, natural, effortless smell of ADG. Personally I would go for an ADG flanker to boost performance; four hours isn't good enough for a fragrance at this price point.
Yeah I really only enjoy 2 Perry Ellis scents and 360 red is not one of them. I don’t mind reapplying it, the flankers are even more money and from what I have tried I didn’t love them enough to buy. Plus the originals are usually always the best. Good to hear your thoughts on 360 red though everyone says it’s dead on but I believe what you are saying about it. Thank you for watching and commenting dude
Everybody knows it or has smelled it but it doesn't matter. In my experience most women recognize it, but are still attracted to the scent, and I enjoy wearing it. Can't go wrong with this classic.
Thanks for the review! I was waiting for this one :-) I also have ADG. Last monday I got Paco Rabanne Pour Homme and I really like it. Another classic that i have is Drakkar Noir. Cheers from The Netherlands
Had this back in the day and I liked it but I ultimately preferred Leau Dissey cause ADG went kind of sour on my skin. Still a great everyday scent thats easily recommendable to anyone 👍
Love the stuff, pretty much had a bottle in some form since it was released. One of the most successful men’s fragrances ever created as far as I know. Lot of dudes get all fussy and won’t wear it due to the popularity. I say, who cares. If it smells amazing, use it. I’ll catch whiffs of it in public occasionally and think, “damn, that does smell good.....”. Have the original, Essenza and Profumo, love em all. May even check out the Profundo. 👍🏻
i guess Im asking the wrong place but does anyone know a method to get back into an Instagram account..? I was stupid lost my password. I appreciate any assistance you can give me.
@Xander Skylar thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site on google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff now. Seems to take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
I bought a box set at perfumania going out of business sale. Everything was 50 percent off a couple years ago. Picked it up for $40. Aftershave, deodorant and 100ml edt. I should finish that bottle by the end of this summer.
@@ScentsOfSouthJersey I just checked my bottle and I have one wearing left. Like you I spray liberally. It won't lay anyone out. I still have Profumo and Paris Hilton Just Me which smells like the original edt.
I remember when this one came out in '96, CK One and L'eau d'Issey were already dominating but ADG was just music to my nose. Didn't recognise it as a citrus floral at the time, just that it was so damn addictive. Never came to own it before my older brother and since then he's sort of taken that scent as his own. These days, you can use ADG to locate children of the 80's and 90's. 😂 Along with Le Male and vintage D&G Pour Homme.
Perfect for clubbing ! Will always be crowd pleasing. I used Le male for my go to club scent at the jersey shore all the time but this made its way in a few times lol
To be honest , not the most unique scent but it really spawned a whole different freshies back then in 1996. A legend , but unfortunately the current formulation it’s really lacking in performance and synthetic notes up the wazoo haha , the drydown on my skin from the 2020 get a little feel of a dried banana 😂 with citrus 🍊. Directly from the local retail tester haha , but I do remember back in 2003 (my first approach) was powerful! Good review bro ! Might be grabbing a vintage, who knows .
Awesome video!!! I do have a question though we always hear about cologne companies doing you know reformulation on certain colognes has there been any proof of any colognes that I’ve been reformulated have any companies ever admitted to it?
Yes as years pass and restrictions on fragrance ingredients increase companies reformulation scents to abide by new regulations also companies get bought out and reformulate scents to use maybe less expensive ingredients to get the same result for the most part. It can be frustrating but I don’t worry about only a few scents I really think having the vintage is worth it most of them whatever is currently available is just fine. Thank you for watching and commenting dude!
Oh man the proof is highly apparent when you compare vintages to modern day! ADG, Le Male, Cool Water, D&G PH, Terre D'Hermes (They took out the oakmoss), Burberry London (Took out the oakmoss), Pure Havane (More cherry in org), Eros (Original had more candy apple top) Hell even Sauvage EDP was ALREADY reformulated!!! COMPANIES WILL NEVER ADMIT TO THIS! THEY WANT YOU TO BUY THEIR WATERED DOWN CRAP ON THE SHELVES! I made the mistake of going to Macys early in my fragrance journey in 2019- thinking I was smart to avoid potential fakes- and of course- I purchased modern day ADG, Eros and BOTH were watered down at that point! When I found the grail original formulas I had to sell them for dirt cheap just to get rid of the reformulation versions I spend 100+ on what a waste. Learned the hard way. Unless its the launch year- you wont see me step one damn toe into a Macys or retail store to buy fragrances.
Thought I would share a modern powerhouse with you. Equipage Geranium. Hermes is usually a disappointment to me in performance but great in scent. Equipage Geranium is aromatic, well blended from the start with bright and green citruses and then soapy geranium and spices and then oakmoss. It lasts and pushes out very well. A little pricier than some of your offerings but very masculine in an era of unisex scents.
I miss my vintage bottle of Acqua di Gio, actually performed real good. You should try L'Eau d'Issey, it was released around the same time as Acqua di Gio. Its fresh and even the newer bottles have soild performance.
@@ScentsOfSouthJersey If you would be willing to do a review it, I'll provide the bottle. Let me know if you're interested, no strings attached either, even if you didnt get around to doing the review, no problem!
about the oakmoss lol....other people feel free to agree or disagree but wayyyy back when i was a young teen buying ADG, it did actually use to have a denser base with the moss. it never felt 80s style, nor did the moss really seem similar, but adg did sort of feel alot more like a transitional fragrance between 80s and 2000s in retrospect with a fuzzy base
Oh so it’s pretty rare.? That’s cool, it’s a great scent but can be viewed as over done in the USA but you can’t not have a bottle lol thank you for watching and commenting dude
ive had this fragrance before, and i love it very light scent.. ive also had the female version as well and its alot lighter then the mens, so why not have both.. one day i smell masculine and the next day i can smell feminine
Get Profumo. It's even more powerful than the pre-reformulation ADG and has added incense and patchouli and ambergris to really anchor it to your skin. It's the sexiest aquatic I've smelled on my husband.
Profumo has also been reformulated. It’s not as strong as when it first came out. Reformulation has ruined fragrances all across the board. That’s why I stopped buying cologne
@@jujuguy2323 my husband has a bottle from January of of 2015 and recently bought a February 2021 bottle as well. We spayed each on one arm or the other. The results? Smelled exactly the same, lasted until the next day, and projected enough that our son in the back of the house asked who just sprayed on cologne. These reformulated myths come from people who either hate Armani as a brand in general, or from people who have received a bottle that was subjected to extreme heat or cold like in a fragrancenet or fragranceX warehouse for example. Or simply the person has horrific hygiene, or is just flat out anosmic to the scent in general. Trust me I here this crap all the time whether it's anything from Dior Sauvage to Amouage Reflection man and it's all bullshit. If people aren't noticing your fragrances try moisturizing you skin, rubbing a dab of petroleum jelly behind each ear and spraying in top and last but not least like Curly Fragrance says DONT BE A SISSY SPRAYER ! Following these tips will get you excellent results from your Profumo guaranteed.
I really like the smell, but yeah, the performance suffered pretty badly by the reformulations. Leau D'Issey still performs better (maybe like 7 hours), but that used to have like 12 hour longevity, so it still suffered. I recently got CK One for nostalgia, and it actually lasts as a skin scent longer than all the other classic 90s freshies.
~ Great review! But I must ask you because I was incredibly distracted during this video admiring/trying to figure out, what in the hell was & where might you have acquired that incredible Poster/Map situation that you have behind you hanging off the wall?
Lol that was a gift to me, it’s awesome it had dozens of famous European historical figures and they all have small numbers beside them and it matches up to which country and City they are from. It’s got everyone from Julius Caesar to Christopher Columbus. Plus on the boarders it’s all the countries of Europe. Very cool and customized with my last name. Not sure where it’s from I never asked to be honest lol. Thank you for watching and commenting dude
Hi there just wondering, have you tried Mancera Soleil D'Italie? Apparently it's a 'clone' of Aqua di Gio that's actually better. I decided to skip Armani on this one for the Mancera option because I heard the longevity of Aqua Di Gio was poor. Btw That's a fresh and clean look you got there, did you know they got the same style in Poland? That's the look over there! Loving the videos Stay Fresh
@@ScentsOfSouthJersey I'll let you know Its coming in the post i got it for a steal, £80 as a tester, but really it's the same box with a TESTER sticker on it. crazy really.
I’m personally not the biggest original ADG fan. The original is very weak on my skin, and all I get it is that Windex-smelling Calone note. I would like to try Profondo, though. As aquatics go, I prefer Bvlgari Aqva.
When companies reformulate their fragrances it should come with a price drop. It’s $100+tax (here in Canada) for water at this point. Apparently Perri Ellis 360 red is a great clone. I’ll give it a try when this DNA gets old enough that people don’t wear it anymore so I can stand out a bit more
I bought this in 1997 ..man !!! awesome frag at that time. one of the best..Now i tried the recent 2020 batch in SEPHORA ..what the hell did they do to a legendary frag?!! they change it to mellower frag..longevity and sillage sucks!
It was awesome before it was reformulated, but now Profumo is the best by far. It smells like the original pre-reformulation with incense and patchouli added. It makes it one of the strongest aquatics on the market along with D&G Light Blue Intense. Those two last 12 hours on my husband.
You know I have not really explored the flankers that much I have tried Profumo in stores once or twice but I do not own it, the original just always worlds any time lol thank you so much for watching and commenting Winnie !
@@ScentsOfSouthJersey no problem friend. I just find ADG Profumo to be a stunner when my husband wears it. It's right up there with Aventus and Terre D'Hermes. Elegant modern masculines with a retro twist if you will.
@@winnienguyen4420 so funny you mention Terre D’Hermes, I was in a fragrance store today and tried it again for the first time in years. My father wore it years and years ago and I was immediately brought back to how much I enjoyed it. I’m about to source the fragrance and whole body line
@@ScentsOfSouthJersey agree with you totally. Although being a girly girl I don't wear Terre myself. My signature is FM Carnal Flower which I still swear to this day is the most gorgeous white floral fragrance for women. It's like stepping into one of those fancy flower refrigerators and the scent is just divine. Anyway I know I was off the subject, but yes Terre D'Hermes is one of the most sexy fragrances on a well dressed man I can think of. It wreaks of elegance, power, and authority. It has a retro vibe to it, but I mean that in the absolute best way possible. It commands attention from the boardroom to the bedroom. Sexy ass fragrance plain and simple.
@@winnienguyen4420 I think I need to add it to the collection, the cost for all the items from eBay sellers I usually purchase from are not bad at all. It smells very good, clean masculine and long lasting
Oh is that what you heard lol..guidos ? Lol personally I am not a fan of A-men line at all it smells to thick and they all smell the same to me. I have a few but I don’t enjoy them. Thank you for watching and commenting dude
With Amen Pure Malt there’s no reason to get Amen anymore. It’s just better and manlier. I don’t normally like super sweet colognes, but the way girls act when they smell it on me is motivation enough to wear it
You are NOT reviewing the original formulation! You HAVE to get the COSMAIR! (Sparkly font, cosmair sticker, yellow juice, slightly less frosted bottle). The original vintage is still unique despite many flankers that smell like the dna. The 90s/early 00's Cosmairs have a mystical sweet powdery floral oakmossy base that none of the others have captured. Find a vintage cosmair for your collection- its well worth it! Its a shame the cosmair vintages are so underrated now. Even if its Cosmair it seems people write this off like its obsolete now. And its not! The modern day is absolute water! Trash!
@@ScentsOfSouthJersey It's the closest to the original out of all of the flankers. It's a denser version of the OG with much better performance. If you like the OG you will love Essenza. Perry Ellis 360 Red is also very similar to it.
This is an amazing fragrance, its such a timeless classic and will still be around in 30 years in my opinion. Another great video dude 🙂
Absolutely a timeless scent and will definitely be around for a long time

Cigar is great I should review it soon !
I've never worn it myself but Id be worried about smelling like somebody's ex if I did.
You are NOT reviewing the original formulation! You HAVE to get the COSMAIR! (Sparkly font, cosmair sticker, yellow juice, slightly less frosted bottle). The original vintage is still unique despite many flankers that smell like the dna. The 90s/early 00's Cosmairs have a mystical sweet powdery floral oakmossy base that none of the others have captured. Find a vintage cosmair for your collection- its well worth it! Its a shame the cosmair vintages are so underrated now. Even if its Cosmair it seems people write this off like its obsolete now. And its not! The modern day is absolute water! Trash!
Oooookay
Have you tried Essenza bro?
I have not, how is it ? I know mcbag has samples of it
@@ScentsOfSouthJersey It's the closest to the original out of all of the flankers. It's a denser version of the OG with much better performance. If you like the OG you will love Essenza. Perry Ellis 360 Red is also very similar to it.
Aroma di Jean by Milton Lloyd is a clone of Acqua Di Gio. Might be a good video if you ever get your nose on it.
Anything by Milton Lloyd that I have tried Di have enjoyed so great idea and recommendation dude ! Thank you for watching and commenting
it has better performance than adg and the smell is like 90% close IMO
Not a fan to powdery or floral! The black one smells like they dumped a pepper jar in it! Just not a fan of the house.🤭
Lol that’s an interesting description of Profumo
@@ScentsOfSouthJersey I thought you might like it.😌😂
Just Me by Paris Hilton is a clone of this and has better performance
