Is this stuff any good? It's a classic, so surely some here have opinions....
Acqua di Selva anyone?

Okay, just smelled it. It's some good stuff!
The initial citrus notes dissipate quickly, leaving a surprisingly clean and fresh pine aroma. Very soapy and doesn't smell synthetic. I like it!

I love it. My dad always wore this, so I grew up with it and when feeling nostalgic, I put it on.

My dad wore it often when I was growing up. He has moved onto Eucris, but Acqua di Selva still smells great.
I bought a bottle recently. Old style smell but I like it.
Great stuff.. I wore it for many years and it suddenly seemed to disappear from the marketplace. Same experience with Acqua di Fresca Colonia. Both were from the House of Victor. Now the Visconte di Madrone, if I recall, has brought the silver water back to market..- Thread starter

It really is a nice pine fragrance that doesn't smell cheap at all. Soapy, clean and can wear casual or dressy.
Bumping this thread because I've dusted off my bottle of Acqua di Selva AS for use this week.
How does this compare to Pino Silvestre?

It's a very clean and soapy pine scent with a citrus top. I like it and used it quite frequently at the end of summer and into the fall. It doesn't have a lot going on, though, so I can see some cologne connoisseurs labeling it "boring." 
I'd classify it as a drugstore-type scent. But I do recommend it.

Can anyone share his thoughts on this?
