  It starts with great strength, dominated by coriander and citrus, especially lemon, with green touches of angelica and marjoram. After three hours it becomes more powdery; there the lavender and flowers like carnation, jasmine, rose, and cypress appear. The coriander stays until the end, where the leather, amber, cedar, musk, and vetiver close a mixture with all the force of the 80s. It is elegant but must be used with moderation due to its heavy trail and somewhat intrusive start; it lasts over 12 hours. Because it is dense, I see it for winter or cold days in situations that call for complexity. It seems more for mature people, 35 or 40 years old, or with more experience in such fragrances… that said, if you find it, because apparently it is discontinued and I got it only by luck.

  It opens with great intensity, dominated by coriander and citrus, particularly lemon, with green notes of angelica and marjoram.

The coriander lingers until the end, where leather, amber, cedar, musk and vetiver close the composition with all the force of the 80s. It’s elegant, but use it with moderation because the trail is heavy and initially intrusive; it lasts over 12 hours. Due to this dense trail, I see it better for winter or cold days in situations calling for complexity. It’s for mature people, aged 35 or 40, or those with experience in such fragrances… if you can find it, as it’s discontinued and I got lucky to grab it.

  Fendi Uomo is a portentous fragrance that upon opening smells of suede or leather with citrus and spices. The proposal is dense and mature… It is not easy, it feels like wearing a freshly cured suede or leather jacket over a base of lavender and black pepper, with very floral and beautiful edges. In sum, it is powerful and prone to being intrusive, requiring care when spraying. It smells crudely animal with a portentous aristocratic elegance, based on high-end leather garments and an unconventional refinement. Without a doubt it is a serious rival of fragrances like Hugo Boss Number 1 or Gucci Nobile. It has a semi-linear behaviour that exceeds 12 hours, with a sumptuously beautiful medium body, ending in a dry amber leather with opaque turns and floral awakenings. On clothes it exceeds 36 hours. Fendi Uomo is undoubtedly an icon of its olfactory family, an essential for the collector.

  Fendi Uomo is a powerful fragrance that upon opening smells of suede and leather with citrus and spice notes. It is dense and mature, not easy to wear; it seems to wear a freshly cured leather jacket over lavender and black pepper, with beautiful florals in the heart. It is strong and can be intrusive; one must apply it with care. It smells raw and animal, but with an aristocratic elegance and unconventional refinement. Definitely it is a serious rival of classics like Hugo Boss Number 1 or Gucci Nobile. It has a semi-linear longevity of over 12 hours, with a beautiful medium body that ends in dry amber leather with opaque turns and floral notes. On clothes it lasts over 36 hours. It is an icon of its olfactory family, a must for any collector.

  Put this perfume next to any of the ones worn now: Sauvage by Dior, Bleu de Chanel, Invictus, it doesn’t matter. The contrast is tear-jerking. There was a time when this was worn massively, the golden age of men’s perfumery. Fendi Uomo is baroque, complex, imaginative, intricate, made with passion and craftsmanship. Its corners hide worked surprises, like a statue in a labyrinth. It resorts to hyper-masculinity without justification, but in its most refined vein. It has excellent performance. It smells like the interior of a Ferrari, the VIP room of a Florida nightclub, the Mister Olympia runway, the movie The Hidden, cassette tapes, a Boy George music video, a solid glass distillery, and a waterbed. Essentially there is much patchouli and leather, where floral notes and touches of makeup powder mix, a side that reminds me very much of Antaeus. There are also bright herbs that emerge occasionally to give it a fresher and less authoritarian tone. And then I can’t help but think of the disappeared Vetiver by Puig. It smells like a good ghost from the past.

  When you put on Fendi Uomo, you’re greeted by a dense embrace of spiced citrus, wood, and musk. It smells like a confident, powerful businessman from the very first second. It’s incredibly complex, with many facets: fruity, exotic, woody, spicy, floral, sensual, and herbaceous. It’s a tremendous elixir that launches boldly, yet settles into a very respectable presence later on. It’s strong, penetrating, mature, and unfiltered: either you wear it or you don’t. It’s attractive, especially in the dry-down when it turns dark and elegant. The base is a sweet white Martini after a hard day, a pleasant respite that contrasts with the spicy opening. Notes of earth, resin, vanilla, and Coriander wood bring the scent home, softening the spice. The trail is excellent and sometimes revives with body heat. It has immense personality; it’s an 80s classic that still shines today. Ideal for those seeking power and charisma. It deserves far more than being overlooked.

  Upon spraying Fendi Uomo, you are attacked with a dense accord of spicy citrus, wood, and musk. It smells like a confident and powerful businessman from the very first moment. It is very complex, with many facets: fruity, exotic, woody, spicy, floral, sensual, and herbaceous. It is a tremendous elixir that shoots out, but after an hour it drops to a very respectable presence. It is strong, penetrating, mature, and focused, without too much diplomacy: you stand with it or against it. It is attractive, especially in its development where it becomes dense and a bit dark, but always elegant. The base and dry-down are like a sweet white Martini after a hard day; that rest is very pleasant and contrasts with the spicy and busy opening. Notes of earth, resin, vanilla, and supple leather project their shadow over the softening spice and bring Fendi Uomo back home. The trail is very good and sometimes, as it fades, it reanimates with body heat. It has great personality, it is a worthy representative of the 80s that shines today. Ideal for those who enjoy powerful and charismatic scents. It deserves much more than being left in oblivion.

  How to describe this Italian potion? 🤔 Uomo di Fendi is complicated: sparkling and mature at the start, addictive in the middle, and charming at the end with vanilla that embraces the soul. Its elegance and good structure make it a vintage jewel in perfumery, with strokes we haven’t seen in 20 years. Nowadays I wouldn’t know how to use it correctly, so I simply use it without doubt. It does not generate compliments; it is a perfume few understand, but it also doesn’t seek attention. Simply it is: Uomo di Fendi, the Italian Tuscany in a potion.

  Picture yourself strolling down an Italian street beneath the arcades of Renaissance houses. There’s a travertine marble and aged wood barbershop, everything of the finest quality: wood, leather, marble, and glass. The most important men gather here: entrepreneurs, thinkers, artists… All done with discretion, neatness, and class. They discuss politics, society, being and non-being, and women with admiration. Honour is a pact of gentlemen. They are responsible men, lovers of family and tradition, intelligent and modern, knowing where they come from and where they’re going. Manly, with positive values, they care for their appearance and manners. They are an ethical and personal reference. Here is class and savoir-faire. Fendi Uomo is the scent of that barbershop. Olfactorily, it vaguely recalls Old Spice, but far more sophisticated, masculine, and classy. It has great quality; any well-made woman would melt for a man who smells like this, because it is manly, balmy, and restorative. It is complex yet recognisable, classic and totally current, more necessary than ever. Fendi is Italian class and Uomo is the man at his peak expression. It begins citrusy and herbal, like after a shave. Then it warms up with cinnamon and soft floral notes that provide a cocoon without smelling of flowers. It acquires spiced and amber tones, resting on delicious patchouli and suede leather. It is markedly masculine, without confusion. It is made when there were no ambiguities and everyone knew the meaning of everything. It is an eternal fragrance, like the city that saw it born. I take off my hat, signore Fendi! Au revoir!

  Imagine walking down an Italian street under the arcades of a Renaissance city block. There is a marble travertine and old wood barbershop, all of the highest quality, tastefully and classily decorated. The most important men come: entrepreneurs, thinkers, artists, politicians… Everything is done with discretion, cleanliness, and attention to detail. They speak of politics, society, and women with admiration. Honour is a pact of gentlemen; elegance and respect are common currency. They are responsible men, lovers of family and tradition, intelligent and well-formed, yet not alien to the modern world. They know where they come from and where they are going. They embody the positive values of masculinity, care for their appearance, and are an ethical reference for all. Here there is class, elegance, and savoir-faire. Fendi Uomo is the scent of that barbershop. Olfactorily, it vaguely recalls Old Spice, but much more sophisticated, masculine, and class-conscious. It has great quality; I am sure any sensible woman would melt in the arms of a man who smells like this, because it is manly, balsamic, and restorative. It is complex but recognisable, classic yet fully current, more necessary than ever. Fendi is Italian class and Uomo is the man at his maximum expression. It starts citrusy and herbal, like an emulsion that caresses after shaving. Then it becomes warm with cinnamon and soft floral notes that give envelopment without smelling of flowers per se. It acquires spicy and amber tones, resting on a delicious patchouli and suede leather. It is markedly masculine, without ambiguities. It is made for times when everything had a clear meaning. It is an eternal fragrance, like the city that saw it born. I take off my hat, signore Fendi. Au revoir.

  Fendi Uomo (1988) is a wonder born in the golden age of men’s perfumery. It is pure magic and alchemy. I love this fragrance; it reminds me very much of Chanel’s Anteus.

  The Fendi Uomo and Donna campaigns of the 80s are a landmark in advertising: a statue awakened by a woman’s kiss in a hypnotic game of undressing. That duo summons the Holy Grail of the decade’s perfumery, with impeccable staging and aromatic construction that set the bar very high. Both deserve a resounding 10/10. The leather of Uomo is sublime, comparable to Bel Ami; they are like two precious stones of the same cut and quality, just with a different colour nuance. Its citrus and herbal opening slowly releases floral accords of carnation and rose, while the cinnamon burns spicy in the base. After five minutes, the smoky and exquisite leather takes the lead. It is not stubborn or medicinal; the floral accords give it creaminess, small herbal drops, and a very rich spicy base. At some point, it connects with its feminine counterpart: the kiss gives essence to the statue. Donna is more chypre, Uomo more accorded; that is their difference. One must take care of the version, as it has undergone at least four reformulations. The first ones (S.p.A. Parma, EA Spa Milano, or Bethco) are the best, with projection and longevity above average. It is a strong fragrance, a very rich leather, honeyed floral, and seductive. I recommend it totally.

  Fendi Uomo is a green, aromatic leather that fears no one. Initially, oregano and a subtle citrus note blend with that robust skin over an old wood, like a piece of furniture from another era. Then, cinnamon, carnation, and patchouli add a powdery sweetness that softens the initial roughness, while a resinous, incense-like base adds depth. There is an oily roundness, perhaps from that coconut which doesn’t sound tropical but integrated. It’s magnificent how you notice they go in different directions yet fit perfectly. Over time, the greenery yields to a floral, sweet, and dark leather. It conveys a serene elegance, like an intricately carved unpainted altarpiece or a castle library filled with philosophy books. Without a doubt, one of the best leathers I have tried.
