Fendi Uomo Fendi for men

If you like this, just go out and buy ysl m7 oud absolu. They smell almost identical. Both have monster projection and longevity too.

Cassio, I know what you mean. I saw this today at a mall perfum shop. One bottle behind the counter . . . $150.00. As it's discontinued, I did consider it.

I've just found it in a Miami Mall . The price? US$200,00?!!
I did'n t bought it. Soon it will be available at Sotheby's as
a antique!

A basically pure sweet powdery natural white elegant suede mens jacket.
Delicious. Sensual.
That's it the picture.

absolutely classy,masculine

its one of the "KINGS" cologne World in my estimation...I have never worn it and NOT been noticed. And it might be the only frag out of all the ones that I wear that actually sticks to me, even after I get out of the shower...and yes, I know how to scrub my fanny. Seriously, it sticks like glue, and you have to be VERY careful when you use it. I have never spritzed more than 3 heavy sprays..and the 3,4 oz bottle I have, has lasted me 7 yrs, Im not kidding.

got a bottle sitting on the shelf forgotten in a nearly forgotten shop, just great, a pure classic, so powerful and sexy, not kid stuff at all!
this is a wild beast that puts niche perfumery to shame, this is heavy leather for the hoochie coochie man!

This is a true giant! A few squirts and it lasts all day! Only for the mature guy, youngsters seem to go for more subtle fragrances as of late but as i'm 45 it just works for me nowadays. Shame it's such a pain to get hold of!

I ran across my old empty bottle from the 1990s and thought, I needed to replenish my supply. Alas, it is now discontinued which is better than a poor refomulation.

Reflecting on the last few drops, this was larger than life in all dimensions. It had a bold Italian character that entered the room before you did. I had a splash bottle and applied it with care. I didnt pay attention to the volume of it in the day. Everyone else was wearing Kouros, Fahrenheit, Giorgio PH and other various powerhouses. What was one more thunderbolt hurled from Olympian perfumers?

It is too easy to say it is like Giorgio PH, yet that is the closest comparison. Fendi always seemed more wealthy and darker with rich Italian leather wrapping this floral beauty. The sculpted bottle and box was status oriented( this was 1 Billion-take that Paco Rabanne). Wearing it transported you to a Roman cafe at the bottom of the Spanish Steps sipping a Campari and soda, dressed in a taylor made suit. The fantasy was larger than the fragrance for me, and that is pretty big.

Enter the big bad wolf LVMH and Fendi lost is dignity (and Uomo), like so many other brands. So much for corporate couture...where is the love?

I like it. Can't wear it or I'll sprout a beard, but I like it. It's a bit loud, but the scents good.

This has to be one of the strongest men's fragrances ever made. It's very bold yet elegant and masculine at the same time. It's longlasting and is certain to bring you compliments, provided you just spay 1-2 sprays. Much more than that and you'll certainly clear the room.

The true smell of men's fragrance. Too bad no one can find only very rarely. I love it.

Its not for teenager but for real men.Very masculine and sexy.

My first thought was that this is a more subtle version of Vetiver de Puig, which I owned for a few years before first trying Fendi Uomo. I don't get much lavender or leather. The angelica seems quite strong, and beyond that, there is an interplay among patchouli, vetiver, and wood. Orris is listed but this is not powdery. Spices are listed but they are discreet, as are the floral notes. I don't get anything that registers as coconut nor vanilla. The blend is very well done, with the angelica being present for a long time and standing by itself, as the wood, patchouli, and vetiver do a kind of dance. It's natural smelling and quite subtle for a 1980s "power" fragrance. The longevity is excellent with good/moderate projection ("sillage"). The sprayer is very good, so a nice cloud effect occurs, with a minimal amount being used up (so you might need to spray more than usual). According to one BNer, the only version you should get is the Bethco one (which is the only one I've sampled). Read the label on the bottom of the bottle to be sure. Though obviously not similar to M7 in most ways, there is something far into the drydown that strikes a similar chord (as in accord).

UPDATE: I recently acquired some of the Parma version. That one seems to have less patchouli, but instead is a bit sweeter. The Bethco is more aromatic whereas the Parma is more oriental. I like both and think they are both high quality fragrances.

Lavender and Leather - that would sum up my memory of Uomo. As many others have mentioned, this is a very strong and masculine scent. I really did like this a lot, but when I wore it, I always felt later on that it was a bit too strong. It's a scent that is intriguing, but really hard to fit into a logical or appropriate wearing time or wearing place. It's got an old fashioned-ness to it (could it be the patchouli, or the pine-y notes?) that makes me think of pipe tobacco and over-stuffed arm chairs in the den. And scotch. And bound books. And dust on the globe sitting in its stand over there in the corner. Maybe its the scent of new 'old money' that permeated the '80's?

This is a monster, I purchased blindly for a knock down price in a gift set many years ago and it was too heavy for me. It is very very strong and you could definately knock out people around you if you over apply. I ended up giving it away for a prize in a raffle ;)

Fendi Uomo is not for who wear ordinary perfumes.
Its the one of the best man fragrances I have ever bought.

I recently acquired a vintage bottle of this, and what a fragrance. Powerful patchouli, leather, cinnamon, really unique. This is a frag monster as BIG says below, but it is a rich and wonderful aroma. I will only wear this on very special occasions, as this is not an everyday scent, but I will be looking forward to those occasions. This really is a masterpiece if you like big spicy leather frags. If you want a unique and powerful fragrance for going out at night, look no further, this will do the trick. Beware it is not your typical modern fruity or vanilla fragrance, this has old school body and charm. This is sort of what I imagined Patou Pour Homme to smell like, but I have never had the pleasure of sampling it...I imagine PPH to be smoother, but this is a most heavenly leather changeling.

I bought a large bottle of this untried and at whim when I saw it on sale for under $20. I had recalled some of the great reviews here and couldn’t resist the very retro dark faux marble and gold bottle.

Little did I realise what was about to unfold…… this fragrance just about blew my head off!

Although the drydown is sublime and almost lovingly caressing in its nature, unfortunately, the top notes are just far too abrasive for me. I know that each nose is different and we all have our own olfactory preferences, but I’m not kidding when I say that the first blast was like my nostrils had been assaulted by some kind of hot, spicy, almost poisonous gas!

I had been forewarned about its strength here, so I was careful not to over-apply. One spray on each wrist and one on my chest was all it took to completely overwhelm me. Initially, I was tempted to run to the shower and immediately wash the whole lot off, but then I decided to give this classic its fair due and see where this assault would lead.

The very strong abrasive notes lasted a good 2 – 3 hours before the whole thing started to calm down. About 4 – 5 hours later, I was enveloped in a gorgeous & entrancing herbal sweet musk. Unfortunately, by this time I was far too olfactorily (is that a word?) exhausted that I couldn’t enjoy it as I’m sure it was intended. When I awoke this morning, I could still clearly detect the herbal musky drydown; this is some 14 hours after a 3 spray application!

I can certainly see that some guys could pull this off and enjoy it too, but I guess I’m just not courageous enough to endure the almost 4 hour assault on my senses, before the drydown.

Hi.

Obviously MASCULINE.It smells interesting at the bigining when you first spray but not for all.FENDI UOMO a true CLASSIC.it is definitely HEAVY but i would't say it is unique.

When you wearning this cologne people will think you have a particular style.Nice and warm.the base notes is woody and a little remembered GUCCI PH for me.

Not for every day.perfect for cold winter nights definitely special occasions.it makes you feel warm.Sillage and longevity are very Good.Anyway i recommend to test before buying.

7/10

this frag is a MONSTER, not for the faint-hearted. never over apply it.

Rich with leathers, patchouli, florals and more. I recently re-discovered Uomo and I'm so glad I did. I love the way the scent lingers on my shirt for a couple of days in my closet after wearing this masterpiece of a scent. There is no other like Uomo. Perfectto!

fragrance for the senators of ancient Rome ...
where are they?)
therefore disappeared this perfume (...

Let me start by saying I love patchouli. Learning that this was a fragrance containing patchouli was the main reason I bought this (added to the fact that I bought Fendi Fendi for my wife and liked it very much and thus investigated the range).

When I first tried it I thought “Ah it’s like Giorgio Beverly Hills for Men”, however that really was too simple a comparison. When I actually compared them side by side, the similarities and differences became clear.

Both have a strong start, Fendi is more citrusy and Giorgio is sharper (you might say tangier). Spices and patchouli are evident in both fragrances. I associate Fendi Uomo, whether rightly or wrongly, with two other fragrances I own (Giorgio Beverly Hills and Givenchy Gentleman). These can be placed on a continuum which goes like this:

Fendi Uomo (fairly strong patchouli)->--Giorgio Beverly Hills (very strong patchouli) -> --Givenchy Gentleman (attack of the patchouli monster).

Two major differences are complexity and balance: Fendi is a much more complex and balanced fragrance than Giorgio and accordingly it is harder to indentify the individual notes. The spicy top notes serve to amplify the patchouli and woody base notes, yet at the same time take the sharp edge off them. The aromatic lavender complements the spices and makes the opening of this fragrance well-rounded.

Compared with Giorgio, Fendi Uomo evolves fairly quickly and the floral middle notes ensure that it settles into something mellow, while after the same amount of time Giorgio is still screaming “Spices and patchouli”. The musk and leather base notes continue the longest augmented with slight hints of wood.

Whilst this is an overtly masculine fragrance, it is quieter than either Giorgio or Givenchy Gentleman and thus able to be worn in a greater range of situations without the risk of offending anyone with outrageous sillage.

Even though it is fragrance suited to colder weather, I would happily wear this in spring.
This fragrance evokes images like a gentleman wearing a tweed suit with leather elbow patches whilst drinking spicy punch in front of an open log fire. It’s definitely an older man’s fragrance. Very classy.

I just love this perfume.
It has personnality , makes me feel rich, good for romantic occasions when it´s cold.
Nowadays it´s hard to find here in Brasil. I need to travel...

Fendi Uomo kind of reminds me a tiny bit of Gucci pour Homme with more of a spicy leather feel and less of the smokey amber incense smell of Gucci. It isn't very loud or offensive and with only one spray it can be pretty mellow. A fairly nice alternative cold weather scent. I love the bottle style.

Sophisticated, refined and mature. Oriental, spicy and faintly sweet. Not bad at all. Classic yes, but not outdated. At least it's not an abused fragrance, such as Cool Water or Grey Flannel. Expand your horizons. Step outside the box sometimes. It's nice not always being so predictable.

Guys this is a respectable scent that holds its own anywhere; daytime cool office environment or for the evening. Has a strong boozy opening but don't let it scare you. Your reward comes an hour or two later when the inner notes become active and surround you with a scent of authority and confidence. The ladies that are too shy compliment you will smile inside as you pass by. Fragrances I purchase more than once always earn my respect. Fendi Uomo has had a share of my wallet THREE TIMES.

An uncle of mine gave me this one as a present years ago. It's one of the most hideous perfumes I have ever had. I was never able to put it on my skin. I don't remember well it's smell, but I remember I thought it was for grandpa.
