Trussardi uomo reloaded - or: How not to do it
I will never forget when I discovered a Trussardi boutique in San Marino in 1992 and immediately - wrapped in a scent of the perfume of the same name, of course - converted a large part of my then scarce holiday budget into jeans, T-shirts and sweaters of the brand. I really wore these clothes for years. They became absolute favorites in my wardrobe. And they were visually and qualitatively top notch.
Just like Trussardi uomo. Alone "the bottle" - a vessel wrapped in black artificial crocodile leather, but that already looked so horny, unbelievable. Even more horny that the pendant for ladies in the same outfit in crema came around the corner. Optics and haptics are outstanding, the Italians are simply stylists, they achieve casual elegance like no other.
Yeah, those were the days. Eros Ramazotti, Gianna Nannini and Umberto Tozzi were smashing their hits up and down and the owners of such jewels as Trussardi took care of their business with a lot of business activity and expertise.
Today: The generation of heirs. The young Mr. Trussardi devotes his attention considerably more to a lady named Michelle Hunziker, who is not quite so young anymore and who is laid aside by Mr. Ramazotti, instead of taking care of the products of his company. Probably he is only interested in what comes over monthly in money to squander, the rest appears secondary. For if he took some time, he would not be unaware of what the reformulation of Trussardi uomo, an absolute classic of the 80s and 90s, has brought to light.
For even if similar ingredients are used, if two do the same thing, it is not the same thing. After I finally saw the new bottle (no comparison with the old one, by the way, a something done cheaply), I immediately indulged in the past and I had more than just a latent willingness to buy. What made me want to test it, I don't know anymore, perhaps the anticipation of the fragrance I loved so much at that time. And then my expectations burst like a soap bubble. There are remakes that are really acceptable (e.g. Antaeus, also not as before, but with still clearly recognizable DNA) and there are those that are just sad. Unfortunately from my point of view this also includes the new Trussardi uomo. The opening lacks this special mixture of freshness and at the same time spiciness of the old version and this slimmed downness in the notes runs through completely. What does that mean, pulls through? Also here no comparison of the performance with the old one. After 2-3 hours only rudimentary to guess, we don't want to talk about great Sillage at all. The base note comes closest to the original variant, but at the end of the day this attempt to revive a great scent of days gone by has failed miserably.
And so this test leaves me disappointed, disillusioned and a little angry. If you are not willing or not able to do something reasonably, then you should leave it alone. Very very sad, Trussardi uomo is today only a shadow of himself.
