💧 Aquatic Icon Inspired by Armani Acqua di Giò Concentration: Extrait de Parfum Refreshing Vitality, Endless Freedom. Aquatic Icon by LXPERFUME is a tribute to sunlit waves and cool Mediterranean breezes.

AQUATIC ICON is an original composition by LXPERFUME, created to evoke the scent profile made famous by Giorgio Armani's Acqua Di Gio. It is not the designer fragrance, and we never pretend otherwise — that honesty is the whole point.
You keep $95.
The designer bottle: about $130. AQUATIC ICON: from $34.99. Same evening, same compliments — and any two bottles ship free in the U.S.
Before you decide.
Is AQUATIC ICON the same as Acqua Di Gio?
No — and anyone who tells you their alternative is identical is selling you a story. AQUATIC ICON is an original 30% extrait composition inspired by the scent profile of Giorgio Armani's Acqua Di Gio. It lives in the same world: the character, the mood, the compliments. The bottle, the house, and the price tag are ours.
How long does it last on skin?
Six to eight hours and beyond — extrait de parfum carries 30% fragrance oil, roughly double a typical designer eau de parfum. Dry skin wears everything shorter; moisturize first and spray on pulse points.
What does it cost, honestly?
From $34.99 against roughly $130 for the designer bottle. U.S. shipping is free on any two bottles ($69.98+); single bottles ship for a flat $7.99. Thirty days to fall in love, or send it back.
