Uomo
Uomo by Valentino is a masculine-leaning eau de toilette from 2014 in the designer price tier. It opens with bergamot and mandarin, moves into coffee, hazelnut and praline and dries down to leather and cedarwood. Expect around 7 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Mandarin Soft, sweet, almost powdery citrus. Gentler than orange.
Heart
- Coffee Roasted, bitter and dark. Adds edge to sweet fragrances.
- Hazelnut Roasted, buttery and nutty. Warm and dessert-like.
- Praline Caramelised nuts. Sweet, toasty and very moreish.
Dry-down
- Leather Smoky, dry and a bit animal. Can be a new jacket or an old saddle.
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
