U by Ungaro for Him: Citrus Spice over Mellow Balsamic Woods

Created by Yves Cassar and Pascal Gaurin, U by Ungaro for Him is Avon's 2008 offering in the Woody Aromatic family for men.

Pomegranate, bitter orange and grapefruit shape the opening, while immortelle, cardamom and cedar form the heart. Peru balsam, vetiver, patchouli, tonka bean and sandalwood complete the base.

At first spray the emphasis is on bright citrus. Bitter orange and grapefruit feel crisp, softened by the juicier, lightly sweet character of pomegranate.

As the citrus settles, a spiced aromatic core comes forward. Cardamom lends warmth, cedar keeps things dry and woody, and immortelle adds an herbal-ambery edge.

Towards the drydown the scent grows rounder and sweeter. Peru balsam and tonka bean give a comforting balsamic quality, grounded by vetiver, patchouli and sandalwood.

With an average score of 3.78 from 5 based on 103 votes, it reads as an approachable, well-balanced masculine woody scent that moves from fresh spice towards soft woody sweetness.

It should suit those who enjoy classic woody aromatic aftershaves with a fresh citrus lift, mellow spice and a sweetish, balsamic woody trail.

In short, U by Ungaro for Him is a clearly structured masculine fragrance: lively opening, aromatic spiced middle and warm woody finish. One to consider if you favour traditional woods with patchouli and amber facets.

  1. I used it about 12 years ago, a woody and sweet smell, really very unpleasant, very similar to the ones grandfathers use, a very sweet musk type between musk and grapes
