Dessert done right.
I used to think this was wayyyy too sweet - something along the lines of Pure Tonka - but I guess my nose must have evolved. The opening on paper doesn't do it justice - generic sugary thickness that we've all smelled a hundred times before. But unlike Pure Tonka which remains fairly linear, Ferragamo Uomo changes for the better.

If you're thinking that you're going to get tiramisu right from the gate, you're wrong. Like most gourmands, you need to put it on warm skin and GIVE IT TIME. The notes open up after about an hour and the dessert feel starts to come through. Think cream filled pastry with a chocolate powder. A bit of orange gives it some character and the tonka bean fills out the rest. But despite the woody notes, it's not heavy. Instead, it's incredibly aromatic and can easily get cloying with more than 3-4 sprays, thanks to beastly longevity. I accidentally sprayed the back of my hat 2 weeks ago and my closet STILL smells of the stuff. And let me tell you, in MILD doses, it's simply wonderful.

One of the biggest surprises I think is the persistence in quality over time - meaning that it degrades really well. Instead of the chemicals falling apart over time and smelling awful like with most cheap frags that use inferior fixatives, this one remarkably maintains nearly its entire fullness and balance throughout its duration - on clothes especially. So bonus points for that. Unfortunately, the projection on me isn't great - but like I said, it's probably better that way. You know - in mild doses, like all desserts.

My guess is that people who hate on Uomo are like the old me - not giving it a fair shake, and at least a months' wearing. Oh well, maybe it's just not their thing. That's cool too. For me though, I'm looking forward to using up my decant so I can get a full bottle before they water it down. Now if you'll excuse me, all this talk is making me hungry. I'm getting a donut.

Update: 2 years later, this has become my #1 compliment getter. I don't know WHAT I was thinking when I said the projection wasn't great - then again, I didn't have a full bottle then. Now I have 2 back up bottles. That's how much I appreciate it. Broken down, it's funny how much the base reminds me of Coach for Men, but dusted with a synthetic chocolate powder that just lasts and lasts. Performance is beyond stellar, and in the colder months, that's EXACTLY what I need - a fragrance that can dish out the goodness well into the frigid night. Warm dessert anybody? May the forks be with you.

The sought-after Italian dessert
Let me introduce you to the Tiramisù, a classic Italian dessert with Ladyfingers. The original recipe consists of egg, sugar, mascarpone cheese, Savoiardi biscuits (Ladyfinger), strong Moka coffee, a bit of Marsala liquor, and cocoa for dusting. That's it, and the final fantastic taste and smell are supposed to be the backbone of Uomo... Let's see.

To start off, it is pretty evident that the bottle is remarkably similar to that of Lalique's new fragrance for men, L'Insoumis. Although they have different logos embossed on the two sides of the bottle, the concept is identical. Nonetheless, the two scents have nothing in stock, and they are diverging from each other, Uomo is oriental-gourmand whereas L'Insoumis is woody-aromatic.

Smelling Uomo on a card won't give you anywhere near an accurate idea of how it will smell on your skin. This is a gorgeous scent. Similarities to ZARA "Ganache Tonka" I feel but much smoother, more complex and far better I'd argue, with the plus of Tiramisù secret ingredient. Uomo is non-linear, yet it follows the familiar structure of spicy top notes, praline-like middle, and woody-ambery base. Uomo starts very strong, it opens with a blast of licorice-coffee-coconut like accord, blended with balsamic green cardamom, and spicy black pepper that kicks in a few minutes later. The velvety bergamot is just a hint, like a drop in the ocean, not dominating the opening. At first glance, the scent is overtly fresh, balsamic, and sweet but not cloying, indeed gourmand but not obnoxious.

So far, so good, but... where is the dessert? Here it comes. The heart announces with a dominant accord of Tiramisù, so smooth and pleasant, the concoction of cocoa, coffee, Marsala, and vanillic-cream is crystal clear, supported and balanced with some other sweet notes, perhaps the soft touch of orange blossom.

And then the dry down, the base is a kind of powdery cacao and roasted tonka bean vibe, yet blended with the creaminess of the blond woods, cashmere, and sandal to extend the sweet-vanillic aroma. Tonka here is a great choice, instead of overwhelming everything which came before with vanilla, the tonka picks up the coffee and cocoa transporting them to the final moments of Uomo.

That said, Uomo is still pretty impressive, all things considered. Many seem to classify it as cloyingly sweet, but I regard it more as a delicious blend with more traditional aromatic masculine elements. The Tiramisù is front-and-center but doesn't dominate the fragrance nonetheless. The sweetness is paired with sharper details to start, and in the dry down, the experience becomes smoother, more relaxing. It's slightly spicier at the opening due to the cardamom and black pepper. They give way an hour later to the Tiramisù, and eventually to woods and tonka in the dry down. I admit I don't get much bergamot or orange blossom, just a hint --not really any citrus or floral contributions at all to this. It's mainly a sweet and woody composition to my nose, which is beautiful by me and unbelievable.

On my skin, Uomo has 7-8 hour longevity and average sillage, which makes it suitable for work and several occasions. Its sweet, woody, sensual notes make me preferring it for fall-winter cold seasons, for a particular time, yet for leisure, party, and clubbing. Although the recommended target is young people, I do like it and don't find it inappropriate for middle-aged silvery foxes men like me.

Gourmand indeed
This one smells absolutely DELICIOUS!! I get a load of the Tiramisu vibe as it holds, and it leaves me wanting some coffee to wash it down. I personally think that it could easily be a unisex fragrance; especially during the opening. Not that it’s too feminine, it’s just something that could easily accent a woman’s beauty as well. The drydown is where it really shines in my opinion; such a rich and smooth tonka vibe. The longevity is good; an easy 6+ hours, and the sillage trail is nice, but not overwhelming. It projects a good 1-3ft bubble that lasts, but remember that it’s a gourmand vibe, so it’s not going to stand out as very “unique”. It’s a great cooler weather scent that would work well on a date or in a cuddling session. I’m happy with this one, as I love my sweeter scents.

The sweet life
Uomo by Ferragamo is sticky sweet like wearing a candy bar. The epitome of a 21st century modern fragrance. It really is sweet, like the tonka bean cashmere woods in the base line. It's nice and powdery fresh like a buffet at a high end casino. If i play the slots and win thousands of dollars I'd run out and buy a few bottles of the stuff. The bottle is cool looking with a nice brownish tan color that reminds me of a coffee house somewhere in New York City. Cardamom Black Pepper and the ever present Bergamot blast off in the opening and i only get hungrier from then on. 7hrs of longevity is nice but i wished it gave me a few more on the skin. All and all this is a nice offering from 2016, and I'm usually not this kind to modern fragrances because i think modern perfumerie is lazy that makes different fragrances that smell similar. This one is nice i don't regret buying it. Can be found in almost any store so i suggest you to give it a try. Uomo by Ferragamo is a winner that comes in like a smorgasbord and leaves me feeling full. The End

Italy in a bottle
This stuff (to me) smells like a hotel breakfast in Italy. Really does kinda take me be back there. You can smell the freshly washed sheets, a long with coffee being brewed. Really does give a care free Italian feel. For the price 8.5
I got mine off notino for 25€ for 30ml. Thats a hard price to beat.

The worst out of the line. The coffee is more of a sugary instant coffee powder with vanilla and caramel. To sticky and bad blended

It opens like licorice, but it's like a sweet breakfast in an Italian luxury hotel, when you smell the coffee and cappuccino in the air!

I find this to be reminiscent of Armani Code. Although this is sweeter, and way longer lasting than code. Almost gourmand with the tiramisu.
