Put it this way. L'eau D'issey has got the power and duration. It's up to you whether you like it or not. When testing this one, give it about 15-20 min to settle. I suggest wearing it for a day. Don't spray it on your clothes, it smells totally different (and better) on skin. If you like it, get it. Don't worry about it lasting..because it will.

Answer:
Yup, I've got to agree with the bland point. Of the three I'd say Mugler's Colonge does the most interesting things as a smell. I say that because it is so simple. A case where simple works, I'm thinkin'.

Answer:
Mugler Cologne was a favorite of mine last summer, and I'm looking forward to wearing it again! I also like L'eau D'Issey a lot and will be wearing that some.
I second the Clinique Happy suggestion! And, for something that's kind of like Acqua di Gio, sniff out Kenneth Cole Reaction and Halston Unbound. They're along the same lines, but with more personality.

Answer:
If I had to choose within the three ones i´ll pick up D'issey simply cause its a balance of fresh, dinamic and long-lasting.
Mugler is quite soapy and Aqua Gio is nice too, but I choose D'issey for the sillage and the reaction with the others. Also if you like citrusy give a try CDG Soda, same sillage looong lasting (forever) and really really nice

Answer:
Mugler Cologne is clean and soapy. Very pleasant, not very sexy. Does not project much in my experience.
Gio is a nice scent that I have to have around. I learned my lesson from swapping it away too many times and then re-buying it. My wife is indifferent to Gio. I like it.
Issey really appeals to me, but my wife hates it. So much that I just leave it alone. I don't have it anymore.

Answer:
Mugler is a unisex scent that doesn't project very much.
ADG is okay, but never grabbed me much, whereas Halston Unbound has some similarity to it but is better in my opinion.
L'Eau D'Issey has great lasting power. Great for summer, but I really dislike it in winter.

Answer:
Mugler Cologne or Pasha's another good one. Gerlain Vetiver's good too.

Answer:
Of the three I would go with Mugler Cologne. If you are open to other suggestions I would suggest you check out Infusion by Bombay Sapphire. It is a fragrance based upon their Gin. I find it crisp, cooling, refreshing and best of all I don't smell like all the other people using ADG or one of its smell alikes. The longevity is also very good for a summer fragrance, I get a good 8 hours. The only real difficulty is in finding it. The only place I've found it is on Ebay, but at a reasonable price. You don't have to buy a bottle to get an idea of what it smells like. Just go to your local watering hole and order a Gin Martini made with Bombay Sapphire.

Answer:
Get something different than all your friends are wearing. To be honest, I just bought Acqua di Gio yesterday. It's my first bottle and it was so popular that now none of my friends is using it, so it's new again. I haven't tried Mugler yet, but definitely want to try it. AdG makes me happy! I liked the idea of getting more than one summer frag to switch off.
