Versus Uomo, the legendary male perfume classified as fresh – woody - oriental, was introduced in 1991, a year before its female pair, the red Versus Donna perfume. Very masculine and attractive, it greets you with a fresh and sweet pleasure of mandarin, lime, bergamot, green notes, shiny lemon, lavender, orange and oil essence of petit grain (citrus). The heart ticks with peppery bitter – floral notes of carnation, coriander, sweet and clear jasmine, mildly earth notes of orrisroot, palisander and rose wood. The base is warmly – soft but intensive, thanks to amber, benzoin, cedar, musk, sandalwood, Tonka and vanilla. The bottle form is the same as Versus Donna’s, only in dark blue glass with a blue stopper.

Base Notes
Versus by Versace is one of those scents like bomb or A * MEN Joop Homme, and should be rested in a drawer with the double bottom in that they are very uplifting fragrances that are used with due caution, the scent in question does not even remember the most have it, and it was only thanks to a dream that I remembered the opening reminds a little citrus Boucheron pour Homme, but the heart is really pure velvet, balsamic, woody and the dark and dense resin and vanilla it is one of the best 90 years, persistence is good, used in winter becomes truly exceptional, despite the years always retains a great personality, but I think it should be used with discretion or you could have the opposite effect.
wonderful
super parfue
grazie gianni!!!!
i miss
Among the perfume from the time, maybe this is the rebel avant-garde which runs out of its time. For that time it was a triumph in perfumery, a summit in pioneering the modern ways. Why? Smell it and judge on launching time.
Start out in a boozy warm and extremely dusty leathery mood which insists to be extremely manly and erotic that its erotic charisma is still one of the tops. The blend is highly aromatic, deep and opaque and not smoky.
The best way to wear this perfume is its time fashion; leather jacket and early autumnal style. It’s casual but can support formal easily because of warm spicy manner. Rebel and wild, sexy and cruel, I’m crazy about these earthy habits!
Longevity: stays adequately to exposure yourself, 9/10
Projection: because of heaviness, a little hard to spread massively but supports surroundings, 9/10
It's currently available on cheap smells website in UK.
Haha! Seems everyone want it!
Is it discontinued?! Did you check everywhere? Of course not!
I've found it and I'm double minded between buying two of my prior fragrances. Versus or Yatagan. I had both and I love both and I miss both! What should I do?
The only thing is bottle bothers me a bit, it's out of date.
I'm not sure what this is trying to be. It has almost a chypre structure with the same lemon as the opening of the 70's original Gucci Pour Homme, but that is the only thing they have in common. This has an overpowering vanilla note that pours over into everything, and really makes this sort of synthetic stink bomb in my opinion. It is not horrible, but it just goes together a little rough and unnatural. If you are looking for an almost gourmandish lemon vanilla type fragrance, then you might want to consider this one...other than that, I can't imagine anyone will love this sticky scent, but I think the lemon pie with woods likeness is apt.
"Naphthalene" and magnolia - extravagant, unusual.
One of the best of all times!!!!!!!!!! A pitty it was discontinued!!!!!!!!
I have to disagree with Mr Da-veed and say that this great men's scent smells nothing like the new (2008) Versace Pour Homme. Versus Uomo has a distinctive smooth lemony-piney smell with outstanding sillage whereas VPH smells almost identical to Armani's Acqua Di Gio to my nose. VU is definitely recommended if you can find it.
There's a big difference in projection ("sillage") between the opening and the drydown, to such a degree that I find it quite irritating. I don't like the strength of the woody/amber nor the strong lemon/pine. Other notes seem to get trampled by them. So, my verdict is that this is too unbalanced for me, and the drydown is too weak. If you like "spiky" fragrances, with notes that seem stronger than they should be, then this might be for you.
Had it...loved it...miss it! :-((
I love this cologne! I used to wear it back in 1992- 1995, but stopped using it when they stopped selling it in department stores. I didn't even know they still made it until I saw it online. I was going to buy it on ebay but was hesitant as you never really know if you're getting real or fake, but to my pleasant surprise I realised that the new Versace Pour Homme is the same fragrance or almost exactly the same in a new, classier bottle! I love it and it takes me back. Great fragrance!
Out of all my versace experience, this is the best fragrance for guys. Never bored, never outdated. The scent is so distinctive, you will immediately catch it airborne. Bravo! Too bad it's no longer in the market.
Brilliant!
For me it is another Aramis 900 (the top-rated fragrance by my girl). Versus Uomo is identical minus the herbal features as it is more refreshing and bit friuty, also at dry down its bit different may be because of vanila and tonka..
Whatever but it is a nice addition and i am glad i found it even when it is disconnected.
perfume rare, we seem to have recently withdrawn from production.
Arrangement complex - fondant and cosmetics and naphthalene in the beginning, but after a very nice - fruit, wood, classic, do not look like anything from perfume, fragrance landmark, resistant.
Accurately conveys the style of early 90s from Gianni Versace.
nice fragrance in the old school way: strong, woody, intesive but still pleasant in the same time. for me it has sth from kouros ( right, right - those "stinky" scent ;) ) and egoiste (rosewood).
i can imagine that T-800 from "Terminator 2" was wearing this scent ;)
Trully powerful. It smells like a baked lemon pie with woods. Great sillage and staying power.
One of my favourites! When I heard it was going to be discontinued, I stocked up.
I wear it to go clubbing. It is powerful just like my personality.
I remember this fragrance in the early 90's and it could strip paint of the walls!! Avoid.
