Gets no respect

Any time fragrances from the 1980's are mentioned Moods by Krizia is never mentioned. To me that's criminal because this Fragrance is a true work of art. Yes, that's right, I said a work of art! I just love it and it's much friendlier than the other one from Krizia called Krizia Uomo. That's strange too because I love green fragrances but for some reason Krizia Uomo just doesn't work for me. Anyway the one called Moods is a beautiful scent with many different notes but it's very well blended and it behaves like you'd expect a late 1980s Fragrance would. To me the smell of the scent is almost a perfect 10 and not many fragrances are similar. On another note, not only is this Fragrance overlooked it's also discontinued!! I can't think of any solid reason why Krizia decided to pull the plug but I guess I'm not supposed too. It seems like the good ones always get the ax while the designer market continues to be flooded with garbage. Ah corporate America!

One Of The More Overlooked 80s Powerhouses...

Moods Uomo opens with a nose tingling blast of carnation floral-laced aldehydes, coupling with spicy ginger and earthy patchouli over hints of the relatively smooth woody leather to come. As the fragrance enters the early heart phase the dark woody leather accord takes center stage with the ginger and patchouli hanging around in key support. During the late dry-down the leather accord softens as the fragrance turns just slightly sweet derived primarily from the use of tonka bean at its base. Projection is above average and longevity is good at 8-10 hours on skin.

While there is no woody accord listed in the official fragrance composition notes, I definitely get plenty of cedar in it. To my nose the primary drivers of the fragrance development once you get past the open are cedarwood, leather, ginger and patchouli. The closest fragrance that comes to mind is one of my all-time favorites, Giorgio VIP for Men by Giorgio Beverly Hills. That said, Moods Uomo is definitely no clone, instead featuring a much more woody focus than the Giorgio. The slightly rough heavy leather heart phase can be just a bit much at times, but the aggressive (but oh so nice smelling) ginger spice-laced carnation floral open and the smooth slightly sweet leather finish more than make up for it on the whole. The bottom line is the long-since discontinued but still relatively inexpensive Moods Uomo may not equal the creme de la creme of the 80s powerhouse crop, but it smells better than most and is well worth one's attention if you come across it, earning a "very good" to "excellent" 3.5 to 4 star out of 5 rating.
