    I consider this to be a masculine classic.
    I have a mixed taste and variety of fragrances that range from sweet vanilla to pungent oakmoss but this is one of the most masculine scents in my collection.
    There are certainly several formulations of this one (as noted in reviews here) and they couldn’t be more different to be honest. The SPA-Firenze bottles are long lasting and powerful, with heavy leather overtones and a huge floral dry down. I’ve heard the SPA-Parma bottles are even more refined but I can’t vouch for that (or even imagine it either) I’m curious but not so much that I’d actively seek them out as I’m more than happy with the Firenze version. I also own a decant of an unknown Uomo variation (I suspect Bethco) that’s nice but not as leathery and a mini of another edition which is NOTHING like the Firenze one as it’s basically a weak citrus focused scent. For those trying to determine which bottle / formulation to go for, I have the horizontal stripe (Firenze) bottles and that’s what I’m basing this review on.
    It opens with a dirty punch that I’m not overly keen on, it makes you take a step back with a hint of regret but once it settles it’s an enjoyable rough ride for 12 hours plus. Projection is large so 1-2 sprays needed only.
    This has similarities with Chanel Anteaus to me, more so the later formulations than the vintage as it has an almost powdery leather / floral mix and it’s brash and up front, you are constantly reminded that you are wearing it.
    Personally, I like to watch westerns and drink whisky when I wear this.

    I finally scored a bottle of Fendi Uomo.
    Given that I missed it when it was still in production, I was really looking forward to smelling this classic. I was not disappointed at all!
    It’s a very elegant and beautifully constructed perfume; in the same vein as Herme’s Bel Ami and Moschino’s Pour Homme.
    It really saddens me that gems like this are no longer in production, but on the positive side, it makes fragrances like Fendi Uomo that much more special.

    I felt like remembering those old days, and I decided to wear this gem today, and it brings back memories, as a nice perfume should do.
    I’d wished they continue making fragrances like this, they were so complex and very nice blended, with most of real ingredients back in the time.
    This is still one of my favorites, and I just found out that adding just a touch of Joy in the hot spots makes both to blend nicely.

    I love this perfume,only 10% left in the bottle from the original formula back in 1989…It is something that i can not explain,,,every time i had this on myself in 89/90s i had the best compliments from girls,because that time other people used Pino Silvestre (almost every men) and RALON after shave…Sillage is beyond the limit (24h plus) just after 24h it starst fading but can be smelled in the next 3-4 days…No one can beat FENDI in this type longevity and sillage plus projection…

    Depending on which formulation you have will most likely determine how much you love, like, or dislike this. I know of at least 4 different versions – having learned the hard way, or should I say – the expensive way, to find this elusive scent I once sampled and loved.
    Of those that I’ve tried, only the original Bethco (with zero, or few, ingredients listed and no mention of EA / Elizabeth Arden on the label) and the SPA-Parma versions are worth seeking out. Out of these two, although very similar – maybe just batch variations even (as opposed to different formulations), I slightly prefer the Bethco. It emphasizes the leather and sandalwood more; whereas, the Parma is a touch more macho with a stronger dose of cumin (maybe 1/10 of that in Aramis) and more patchouli. The quality and quantity of the essential oils used in both are top notch and literally can be seen in these bottles. The liquid seems slightly viscous and has a deep gold amber color, much more so than the version shown above (but also, be aware of one’s that are too brownish in color – indicating poor storage – too much exposure to heat and light). Sandalwood, though not listed above, should have been placed prominently in the pyramid.
    Unfortunately, as with most classics, the later formulations don’t translate well because the use of too many synthetic replacements – they end up smelling cheap and lifeless. The lighter colored (Firenze, EA-Bethco,LVMH) are like re-using teabags, the soul’s already been sucked out.
    The original is close to perfection for me. Smell the Glove 😉

    Use lightly and the dry down is absolutely lovely. This opens up to a very clean iris/floral, delicious spices, and sweet vanilla/citrus with fresh suede.

    Louis, I respect your opinion. As I said, Dior Sauvage was just an example, okay? Okay. I see you already got your fangs out, because I said such things about “new generation” of perfumery. I’m not lingering the past like, I’LL NEVER USE NEW PERFUMES, THEY ALL SUCK! UGHH, BLEAH. Not at all, just because 80% of nowadays production of perfumery it’s just as said before “from same hatched egg from same hen” and we need to stop this and SEE and SMELL the DIFFERENCE, we need to see what ICONS like Gentleman, Derby, Macassar and the list can go without any problem. The problem is not only here in perfumery, it’s in this WORLD we are ALL living, just herds over herds copying eachother without thinking how to be YOURSELF, EACHONE = ORIGINAL.
    Overall Louis, I don’t judge a book by its cover. Keep that in mind! I test everything is new and AFTER that I judge and say my personal opinion. Even it’s a 10$ or 1000$. Don’t worry man, I would really like to have a deeply discussion about what do you think is the problem of this HUGE difference between WHAT IT WAS and WHAT IT IS NOW.
    Regards,

    For all,
    Sadly, perfumery world withered so much in the last 10 years. And this makes me everyday more sad that I was yesterday. What can we do? Nothing. Just to suffer in silence to watch how all gems are discountinued, prestigeous brands are making fun of themselves. Best example? Sauvage by Christian Dior. Do I need to say something? YES! All new perfumes…hatch from same egg…from same hen! And they are big brothers and little brothers. Big brothers or niche and little brothers as designer. Fresh and sweet for getting cheap chicks in clubs. Oh wow, hold your horses gigolo…wearing Sauvage or Invictus makes you instantly alpha? God, I love teen reactions or men at their 30s and never smelled something for classic era of 70-80s! They are so afraid to try something new…to see what’s a real perfume…of a REAL man. I may be subjective to the bone, but I feel like everyday, a piece of me falls off when I go to perfume stores and I see blind people buying all the mainstram stuff because it’s WORE BY EVERYONE! Not that represents themselves. I have to say much much much more! But who cares? Yeah maybe 2/10 people, but they already know my fustration, my point of view, this passion of perfumery.
    Honest regards,
    Masterpiece

    I have to agree with everyone who says that most hard to find fragrance are way too much to dish out. con the other hand considering how much nieche fragrance cost…this is a deal. There’s so many overpriced fragrance with little to offer. Most including myself have the experience that the old juice would stay well past 10hrs. Most current version and some nieche fragrance fade away within 3hrs.
    I was sooo fortunate to find a 100ml bottle for $80.00..I grabbed the bottle.
    I will do a follow up about the juice itself very soon. Enjoy
    Update
    I agree with minipoly, I looked at the base of the bottle and there was S.p.a Firenze italy. This fragrance is the orginal version and has far more robust warm/woodsy blend with a hint of floral scent making this juice a lost art in the fragrance being produced. Longevity and Silage is far better back then. In today’s market it’s hard to find a juice which lasts as long.

    it is expensive because it was discontinued since few years ago. What you bought with 80$ was a luck and maybe an old stock. This is what it happens with all discontinued like Arpege lanvin PH, Gucci PH, Iquitos AD and many many more, it is simple. But Fendi still can be found at a resonable price.

    I got a 50ml today. Opens like a true aged smell. But I love the way it settles. This can take on newer good perfumes. I am gon treasure it for couple of yrs to come.

    You’d better love patchouli and leather if you’re going to blind buy Fendi Uomo. This is a patchouli and leather powerhouse bomb from the 80s.
    The comments about there being two formulations are correct, but both are excellent. The original version smells thick and heavy, loaded with leather, a total 80s macho man scent. The later version has a little less leather, is a little drier, but still powerful and excellent nonetheless.
    If you love Giorgio For Men, Maxim’s Pour Homme, Oscar de la Renta Pour Lui, those kinds of frags, this is definitely for you.
    My rating: 9/10

    I got a splash-on vintage sample and was first a little overwhelmed by the powerful accord that is both intense and complex. Because being an aromatic fougere scent, it instantly reminded me of two other (sadly) discontinued scents, both by Givenchy: Xeryus Rouge and Insense (the original one, not the Ultramarine), and also of Boucheron Jaipur Homme.
    Of course all four do differ, but in the present-day world of mostly uniform-smelling synthetic cocktails, they clearly stand out as old-ish time pure masculine scents. Funny enough today’s noses that didn’t grow up with scents like this might easily confuse it with a women’s perfume because they just stopped making this kind of juice for men these days. Don’t know why…
    I love how rose and iris are gradually taking over the more straightforward coriander, patchouli and carnation, creating the almost talc kind of fell. That Italian fragranced talc. The leather is there at all times but it’s rather subtle, and I find this note to work as a “bridge” that binds together the floral notes with the leather one.
    At this point I feel I should round up with this typing and go find myself a good old copy of Fendi Uomo in a larger bottle (or two) on the bay of E.

    Recently got hold of a 30ml EdT.
    Wow – this is really nice stuff!
    Leathery, woody and aromatic on my skin but for some reason, the first time I wore it, more than anything else, reminded me of the original Gucci pour Homme.
    Not quite sure what was different about my skin that day, but today the leather note comes across more consistently.
    I’m impressed.

    I have two bottles of Fendi Uomo: one bought in the early 1990’s and the other bought recently from eBay with a batch code of R0201. There was sadly a reformulation that I wasn’t aware of. The older one is more a classic fougere along the lines of vintage Azzaro pour homme. This newer one leans towards the reformulated Santos de Cartier.
    This is just for your information, not a judgment on SdC.
    The original…It’s a very good, very conservative, very by-the-numbers traditional Italian-style fougere (ditto for the reformulation, btw)…but for those same reasons, I don’t reach out for it as often as I’d like…and even less so now. (Now that I know about the reformulation!)
    The reformulation…I’ve been wearing it for the last three days. It’s a light fragrance, very diaphanous, very low sillage. It’s a skin scent barely an hour after application. However, when sprayed on clothes, it sticks like giraffe snot. I’ve been noticing this with Lagerfeld’s fragrances: the ones I have all have tremendous staying power when sprayed on fabric…every single one, even the reformulated Photo.
    What I like most about Fendi is the packaging. Those metallic-looking accents you see on pictures of the bottle? Those are really made of brass (or at least some copper alloy), not merely painted/plated on.
    And I’m swapping out the newer bottle bought from eBay. So, if anybody’s interested….
    *****
    Skip that last part. I think I’ll hold on to it.

    I finally was able to get my hands on a little tiny vial of this stuff thanks to another member on here.. I am in love! Fendi Uomo is a great vintage scent.. Tons of gorgeous leather! It is classified as a woody spicy on here but smells more like a classic chypre to me.. It is strong, classic, and mature but I definitely could wear this.. It really smells exactly like a male version of the women’s “Fendi Donna” which I fell in love with first.. Will update once I get to know this better.. Gorgeous!

    I’m going to say it and I hope this doesn’t get deleted. It’s the aroma of the leather seat of a lambretta moped once that tight cheeked Italiano dismounts. His D&G jeans, his swarthy swagger. The sunglasses worn at dusk in the outside cafe. You admire his gait. His stance. His attitude is “untouchable Adonis”. You wear this and everything in the morning tells you he fell for you. It’s still on the sheets, your fingers, your mind. You both became one in fendi uomo and that’s brilliant.

    Complex, mature and quite elegant
    I have nothing but admiration for the old italian style of perfume making, and Fendi Uomo is typical of this.
    The fragrance opens up with a host of notes that can be almost overwhelming but which work together really well to give the impression of a well dressed, slightly conservative image of a man. Pure masculinity in the old tradition.
    With lavender, cinnamon, carnation and herbs, followed by rose, iris and vetiver, with leather, patchouli and amber constantly in the background. It can be dense and a little heavy, but it dries down beautifully with leather and earthy, herbal florals to give this impression of masculinity. Think expensive cut suits with wide lapels, the finest Italian leather shoes, immaculate grooming. I don’t see this primarily as an “old man” type of fragrance, but more of a “classic” style type of scent. Like a young man in an old Italian film or magazine dressed in the best male fashion of his day.
    In this world where this kind of smell is slowly disappearing (Fendi Uomo has been discontinued for some time now), it really is nice to smell the old classic style of masculinity once again. Nostalgia, yes… but certainly worth it.

    A masterpiece standing the test of time! Of course its 80’s and powerhouse and all those definitions overused in the fragrance community but c’mon, the nose which has created this smell was a genious. Its indeed a big orchestra of spices and flowers but so delicately blended that the actual AROMA that comes out of this blend is one of the most comforting, self assuring and tasteful creations I have ever had the pleasure to smell. For me its in the top 3 of all time spicy “powerhouse” (there you go I use it too) fragrances ever created. Trussardi Uomo, Hermes Bel Ami, Versace L’Homme, Marbert, Boss Nr1 are among those who stand out in general but the top 3 for me are Lagerfeld Classic, Alain Delon AD and this brilliantly made Fendi Uomo. I just love it to bits. The aura it creates and aroma it has is unbeatable. Of course its not for youngsters, I myself was only 20 when i first wore it and it didnt agree with me at all. Now at 41 is a perfect companion for these cold autumn & winter days…..Fendi Uomo another fragrance giant which slowly and sadly disappears….

    They just don’t make them like this any more, that fresh leathery smell is similar to Sienna by Crabtree and Evelyn. No other comparisons can be made, truly a unique leather smell. patchouli is strong throughout the life of FU, giving this scent a real bite of fresh green. sure floral, sure green, but really a leathery, spicy, bitter scent more akin to some of the more powerhouse fougeres i own. 10/10

    Just found it again in a small store in New York City. I had to bargain with the salesman. The price? US$ 200,00 . After he sold me at US$120,00. Still expensive but I just love it.

    Well to me this fragrance is the epitome of old Skool, super strong, masculine to the point of butch and not really to my taste.
    However, I understand the appeal because this fragrance takes one back to an era between the 60’s and 90’s where all masculine scents were…well frankly exactly like this.
    I remember trying this years ago and feeling it was dated even then but after clearing out some of my dads old stuff I found a bottle of this juice and when I tried it again to my suprise enjoyed the dry down but the opening is still too harsh…..I don’t hate it though.
    Seeing as its sort after and hard to get hold of now (by all accounts) I have a bottle I’m probably rarely going to use so get if touch if you’re interested.
    Update: The drydown of this fragrance is sublime you get lots more than you expect it’s really very nice. I still have more than 3/4 of a 100ml bottle if anybody wants it let me know.

    My dad used to wear this occasionally. It is extremely masculine and wonderful! I would say for the older and more mature man (maybe cos my dad wears it, who knows). I don’t know what else to say, this is great, classy, and a true mans scent.

    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?

    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.

    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?

    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.

    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.

    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.

    i thought it was okay until someone said on basenotes, literally put this thing on blast and said, that it smelled liked guerillas, and alligators pissed in the bottle

    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.
    18-Oct-2013. My opinion remains the same. This used to sell for @ $30 when it was in production, now i read that you need at least six times that to secure a bottle if you can find one
    As for comparison with M7 OA all I can say is errr.. dunno.. M7 & M7 OA share a lot of DNA but Fendi Uomo is/was a traditional 80s Powerhouse comparable to other traditional 80s powerhouses.
    13-Jan 2016. Great Scent!
