Valentino Uomo ~ new fragrance

Posted by Robin on 6 September 2013 19 Comments

Valentino Uomo

Valentino will launch Valentino Uomo, a new fragrance for men, early next year. The fragrance hopes to be a "classic of tomorrow". 

Uomo was developed by perfumer Olivier Polge; notes include bergamot, myrtle, roasted coffee, gianduja cream, white leather and cedar.

I will update with sizes and concentration when I can.

(via wwd)

Update: Valentino Uomo is available in 50 and 100 ml Eau de Toilette, and is an aromatic leather fragrance. The description from Harrods...

This scent is inspired by a specific scene at the end of an aristocratic family lunch, on a huge table set on the terrace of a Roman Palazzo.

Notes are emanating from the garden of the palazzo, as well as some beverages and desserts still on the table after everyone has left…

Another update: see a review of Valentino Uomo.

        Ditto. And I had to look up ‘gianduja’ lol..chocolate I guess? Notes sound nice. I love the smell of myrtle wood being originally from Oregon. Something to sniff for sure I think!

    Fantastic bottle! I’ll have one whatever is inside, although by the sound if it, we might have a winner. Also, it’s by Olivier Polge, so that’s good news too.

    The bottle is stunning! Such a dramatic break from what we tend to perceive as a bottle ‘for men’.
