I bought it looking for a cheaper version of Fahrenheit. I was very disappointed. It’s a generic and boring weak leather-based fragrance. And weak is an understatement! In fact, it’s one of the weakest in my collection of 230+ fragrances. It turns into a skin scent within the hour (seriously!). Well, I paid only $20 for a 3.4oz so it’s not a big lost.
I considered just tossing it in the garbage because it’s just too frustrating to wear a fragrance I can only smell for 30-60 minutes. I even tried 10 sprays and it smells nice for a while, but it becomes a skin scent within an hour. I see it now selling for $12.99 for a 3.4oz bottle. However, even at that price it’s not worth the hassle. I’ll let my bottle age for a year or so with the cap off to see if it changes the performance. If not, I’ll be taking a 3-point shot straight into the trash bin.

Wow, it smells NOTHING like Fahrenheit to me. Two totally different fragrances. I probably got the wrong juice in my bottle. I own Bora Bora Exotic, and THAT is something that is in the neighborhood of Fahrenheit. Whatever juice I got in my bottle smells nothing like that. Ferrari Uomo has a bit of the same notes that Ferrari Essence Oud has, which I also own. It reminded me a bit of Zirh Ikon, too, which I gifted away. It’s in that neighborhood of scent tonality.
In my peasant-nosed opinion, it’s a leathery, woody scent that is not thick, but thin smelling. You couldn’t overspray it like Essence Oud. Very delicate, and it smells good on female skin, too. It has some other notes blended in the background. My pastor’s wife (73 y/o) opined it smelled like new car leather interior and that it had a classy, manly vibe to it. I agree. She loved it when I was testing my new purchases with her, so I gifted it to the pastor. She also loved Ferrari Noble Fig. It blew our minds, hah!
BTW, those Ferrari stitched bottle caps look and feel amazing. They’re so heavy, too. I like ’em a lot. God bless!
A200573 – :
I had a 2014 bottle and it was very weak projection wise, good scent but low strenght, if nobody can smell anything it is kind of sad because I wear fragrances for myself but also for others to enjoy.

@smellsbells Lucky you!
To me there’s worse than having my perfume criticized: it’s when I ask “what do you think about it?”, and the answer is “I can’t really smell anything”.
I really wanted to love it, and I only care about the juice, not the bottle/brand. I even wear and love some Bogart fragrances that I bought $5 to $15 a bottle…
But $12 for 100ml of water and ethanol seems overpriced to me.
Again, scent is good, and while longevity is ok, projection is just shameful on my skin… (and for what I could read, on the skin of many).
I’m not wearing a frag to get compliments, but would like at least to smell it myself for a few hours without being seen as a weirdo because I smell the inside of my elbows to smell something…
That said, after it stops projecting, sometimes it comes back to life for a few seconds, then nothing… strange fragrance…
MF8844404 – :
I HAVE an older bottle and its very strong on me.
alkore – :
I will confirm what other have already said: same vibe Fahrenheit, at least on the opening and middle notes. After that I can hardly tell for how light this scent is.
Guys, let’s be honest here. I have the feeling that a lot of people gave a generous rating because they are happy of the good deal they made. There s a decent (but moderate) projection in the first hour, but after that, one must really put his nose on the skin to smell something.
So, is it a good quality/price bargain? At $12 for a 3.4oz new tester, I thought it was. But given the amount needed to be sprayed to remotely smell it, no it’s not.
Is it a copy of Fahrenheit? Not at all, because if one cannot smell its scent without sticking its nose on the skin after an hour, it’s nonsense wearing it. (And anyways, the basenotes are really weak, far from the heavy leather of Fahrenheit)
Should you buy it? If you’re looking for a watered down “Fresh” Fahrenheit opening (petrol, violet) that lasts an hour and have no problem shooting 15 sprays on yourself, go for it.
If you’re looking for the bitter leather or a fragrance that lasts a bit, pass on that one and get Fahrenheit (you ll need just 2 sprays to have a performance much better than that one, so at the end, Fahrenheit is less expensive).
I previously read that this could be Fahrenheit’s cologne flanker. It’s not. It’s Fahrenheit’s eau tres tres tres tres fraiche.
The scent is good, but because of its very poor performance, it’s just a like, not a love. This scent has the strength I expect in a shampoo, not a fragrance. Performance similar to John Varvatos’s fragrances.
Will not sell it, but will not buy again either.
While Fahrenheit is more of a Fall/Spring evening wear in my opinion, this one is, at best, for hot summer days.
Summer days, 25+
Today I realized one thing: while a great scent is necessary to make a hit, it’s not sufficient. What one is paying for in a great fragrance is the scent AND the great projection. A lot of copies/clones of famous fragrances manage to copy the scent, but most of the time, their projection and longevity is poor. Because that’s where the secret is.
МалВА – :
This is a poor man’s Fahrenheit with a tad less petrol (nutmeg) which is perfect for me. I had gotten Fahrenheit Aqua hoping it would be a laid back Fahrenheit and it’s not. Then considering the pricing… why the hell not?
Kegeagrighcit – :
I feel Ferrari Uomo is a slept on fragrance. Granted it isn’t a long lasting scent compared to what it is a clone of, but I would say it is very much worth the discounted price for it.
Ferrari Uomo is basically a mix of the Fahrenheit petrol open with Vince Camuto for Men (the black leather bottle)’s barbershop leather scent. This is everything I wanted Liz Claiborne Curve Black to be and it is even cheaper than that. Go figure that one out. The fragrance has a violet/petrol accord and I say it is an accord since it (violet) isn’t a note at all in this fragrance. This dominates the cirtuses and juniper berry to my nose. The mid takes it into a heavy leather direction (perhaps this gives that petrol accord too) with some woods and nutmeg. The base I get a slight tonka and musk but it is still leathery from the mid.
Ferrari Uomo is despite the Fahrenheit trademarks of being a fall/winter scent is actually an all year scent. I first wore It in summer and it don’t feel all that cloying or overpowering. It works much better as a night scent, but it is actually a good day scent. It does project nearly heavily during the first hour, and pretty moderately during the second hour, before becoming a skin scent. The scent lasts about six hours in total and works in dressed up, work settings or even club settings if you spray it initially.
Ferrari Uomo is very much an amazing scent. Online you can get it for the pricing that you can get La Rive Hitfire. Uomo is a love for me. Now if only the cap I had for it was a little better… I rate it an 8.5 out of 10 with the main knock being the longevity compared to Fahrenheit.
Maksimka052 – :
I echo scentitar’s comments. Great fragrance and a phenomenal deal at current prices. I haven’t smelled much like it…a light fragrance with muted leather and a gasoline vibe…and a wee bit of freshness. It is a bit like the smell of gas spilled on leather clothing..or gas on your hands that you tried to wash off with a fresh scented soap. Not overpowering at all.
It turns into a skin scent on me at around 2-3 hours, but will last a whole work day.
This is a great fragrance…basically any Ferrari fragrance you get with this same style bottle will be good to excellent (Noble Fig and Bright Neroli are phenomenal)
snoncophony – :
When I wear this I feel like I just finished shaving with an expensive shaving cream. There is this light spicy wood projection that is quite nice. warm, masculine, but not heavy. I find it quite classy. longevity good, projection light.
sasha57 – :
Pleasant surprise, If you ever wanted a more modern, smoother and cheaper Fahrenheit this is it.
This lasts 6 hours on me and projects moderately.
A steal for how cheap you can find this discounted.
I personally don’t like how it becomes slightly sweet as it becomes a skin scent, but do enjoy that it is smooth, slightly nutty, and smooth, yet rugged, and has personality, like it has.
This is a example of how good Italian fragrances can be. Recommended for 20 to 35 year olds.
Ferrari may be on a path to greatness.
lliiss – :
This is absolutely very similar to Fahrenheit (minus the violet). However, this is VERY light in comparison, and the nutmeg stands out quite a bit. On the bright side, this scent layers extremely well with other scents!
With the nutmeg standing out like it does, this scent layers best with spicy/woody/ambery “brown” scents. I’m currently wearing it layered in equal parts with Ferrari Leather Essence, and it’s almost like these two were made for each other! If you own Ferrari Leather Essence and love it, but wish the leather were more pronounced, grab this to increase the leather’s presence!
As far as performance goes for this scent on its own, it does indeed have quite a bit of staying power, and sticks around for a full 8 hours for me. Unfortunately, the projection is dismal at best on my skin. It’s really pretty light… But others disagree, so YMMV.
Overall, for the extremely low price, this is worth it, in spite of its low projection. Those looking for a true Fahrenheit replacement should try Liz Claiborne’s Bora Bora Exotic, which is much more similar to Fahrenheit. (And it’s also only $13!)
Mekax753Bessinepome – :
Ferrari Uomo is a very good creemy leather EDT.
It opens very citrusy fresh and a bit green (probably due to the Juniper note) and then you get the density of the leather spiced by the nutmeg and some woodsy notes.
The dry down is very good as well and very “Morillas”. You can still feel the leather in the dry down (probably the resudual leather note emphasized by the labnanum note) but tonka dominates. Patchouli fits very well in the dry down helping the woodsy scent to remain present.
Before I blind bought this fragrance (a bargain for €11.00 / 75 ml) I was a bit concerned by reviewers claiming the strong resemblance with Fahrenheit… I hate Fahrenheight! Although I am a fan of leathery scents, the gasoline scent in Fahrenheit makes me puke. With Ferrari Uomo you also get a faint vibe of motor racing – a very faint vibe of burned motor oil and tyres. This vibe is a plus and I enjoy it very much.
Rating for Ferrari Uomo
Scent:8.0
Longevity:8.0
Sillage:7.0
Versatility: 9.5
Uniqueness: 7.5
Quality:7.5
Presentation: 9.0
Average: 8.14/10,00
Ferrari Uomo is not a masterpiece or a shining star. But is a very good and safe versatil fragrance. It’s the type of fragrance that pleases everyone. Do wear it in any season, day or night.
It’s not fantastic for clubing (just Ok), but it may be weared almost everywhere.
Ferrari Uomo is clearly not in my top 10. But I know that I am going to use it a lot and that will buy another bottle.
fuad777 – :
I got mine yesterday a 50ml beautiful bottle for only 9.90€
This is a good quality fragrance in general, nor sweet neither cloying, I sprayed on the back of my hand as soon as I got it, the sprayer is awesome, it last about 10 hours (of course very close to my skin) today I am rocking this baby (I was bold to go with 6 sprays) paired with a leather jacket, I smell wood, lot of leather and kind of petrol. I’m at the office and I still smell it on me after 6 hours, I think the sillage is good too.
Very nice leather fragrance, at times soapy but in a good way. I didn’t get the citrus note maybe just some minutes in the beginning
I am glad that I bought it, if you like it is a fantastic value for the money.
UPDATE:
The performance on my skin was ridiculously long yesterday, I still getting whiffs all the time of the scent after 12+ hours and the dry down is Lovely.
This is a nice daily office scent for the fall
chothCyhora – :
Light at first but nice — definitely leathery, the best(?), most noticeable at least, clearly leather note I’ve ever detected — and decent quality. Probably my favorite leather-oriented scent. Masculine, but not overbearing — well friggin’ done Mr. Morillas! In the States right now you can get the largest (100 ml.) bottle for as low as $16, delivered: I suspect it is discontinued as one big distributor has it on “clearance.” It is a B+ scent, gets a solid B for longevity, and a C for projection making this a bargain, professional(‘s), fragrance.
Cixskitty – :
This scent – more than most others I’ve tried – triggers a number of olfactory memories for me. And yes, it IS noticeably similar to Dior Fahrenheit – but like DF, it’s a masterpiece in its own right.
That first whiff carries with it the slight gasoline vibe others have mentioned – hovering as the notes separate and settle. This is where I think it’s most like Fahrenheit.
Tuscany on Top – The up front hit of citrus and juniper is potent but brief, and not unlike the whiffs of evergreens and lemons you find everywhere in the region. This is a key difference from DF, where instead of citrus and juniper, you get a more soapy combo of florals (lavender/violet) and citrus. Both are nice, but I like Ferrari Uomo better for its clean brightness right off the bat.
Leather and Memory – In the moments that follow, the brightness fades and I find myself in an olfactory memory, walking the streets of Firenze – leather shops on every corner. An assertive but well-stylized leather composition takes charge, leaving all the other notes in their rightful, subordinate roles. Notes of childhood memories of… my old baseball glove…
It’s hard to put this into words, but for me it takes me back to that old neatsfoot oiled, pine tar rosin-dusted baseball glove I remember – leathery, oily and a bit woody – juxtaposed with the stately scent of a well-seasoned leather and wood interior of that vintage Ferrari parked only in my mind.
As remnants of the top notes wither away, the base notes come out, softening the leather and wood with vanillic tonka and earthy patchouli. Not much, could be more there for the sake of longevity – but it’s there. And it’s damn nice, but I do wish for more of that warmth to come out – perhaps with a touch of amber/benzoin to heighten it.
I like Fahrenheit; but to be honest, I like this better, as it’s a bit brighter and evolves a bit more throughout the dry down – albeit at the expense of DF’s lasting gasoline vibe and beastly longevity.
This is the scent of a CONFIDENT MAN clad in a seasoned leather jacket, driving up the coast in his convertible on a cool fall’s day – a man who knows who he is and what he wants.
Old and new. Fresh and potent. Unmistakably manly yet subtle and sophisticated, all at the same time. Combines AMAZINGLY well with the sweetness of Bentley Intense. The two indeed seem to complete each other.
Like Fahrenheit, this is not a scent for everyone, nor one that just anyone can pull off – but if you do like it, you’re just as likely to love it. If you like wearing leather-type scents, just buy it already. You will not regret this thrifty but awesome sauce.
Once again, Alberto Morillas FTW.
waitztom – :
Slightly disappointed with this one…
But only because I’m not getting the longevity or projection of others.
Lasts around 2hrs on my skin (and clothes) as a usable scent.
Bergamot and nutmeg, into patchouli, Tonka and leather.
Nice spiciness, has an old school vibe, but not too woody which I prefer.
Just wish it’d project and last longer.
ua9yk – :
Creamy leather, as many others have said. Very high quality-to-price ratio in terms of the scent and the longevity. Projection is pretty tame at a couple of inches, but it really lasts.
My take on the Fahrenheit comparisons: the leather note, which I consider dominant in both fragrances, is very similar. The creamy vibe is stronger in Uomo. Obviously, Uomo doesn’t have the violet leaf note, but I can still detect a faint hint of something like the petrol vibe of Fahrenheit, maybe it’s more like rubber. I personally don’t like the particular petrol vibe of current Fahrenheit formulations, its kind of weak and acrid. Fahrenheit has more complexity and better performance but I personally find Uomo a superior scent and substantially better value.
Conclusion: The best leather cheapie available (since Midnight in Paris is discontinued). Also, nice bottle!
mini1593 – :
So this isn’t my cup of tea.
The opening is trash…and the middle.
The Base is nice tho.
Nutmeg and tonka beans mix…is great.But you have to wait to get there.
I used nine sprays…both wrist, behind my ears, back & front of my neck, chest, front and back of my shirt.
Will I buy this again?…No.

Kaktoos – :
I’m honestly disappointed this scent is receiving such a contrast in comments. Either it’s incredible, or it’s trash. Somehow the “incredible” comments are mostly in detail, well written, and have some semblance of thought behind them. The “trash” comments are vague and don’t seem to have any real substance behind the claims. How suspect. Then again, I always need to remind myself this is fragrantica. Regardless of how amazing a scent smells, if users on here don’t like the perfumer, or the brand, or whether it’s a knockoff (it’s not), then they’ll say it’s nothing special. Thankfully, this fragrance is dirt cheap and Youtube reviewers seem to paint this is a very different light. I decided to spend the less than $20 and blind buy this juice.
Let me open by saying the bottle is stunning. The cap is metal, very heavy, and has leather on it. Honestly it’s one of the nicest caps I’ve seen on a fragrance and puts niche bottles to shame. The bottle itself is heavy glass and quality. Presentation looks WAY more expensive than this thing costs. Gorgeous, heavy bottle with stunning quality heavy cap.
So, what’s this smell like? Fresh, creamy, quality leather. A surprisingly subtle approach to a leather scent that makes this very easy to wear compared to something like Fahrenheit or Tuscan Leather. I can see this being worn even in summer, it’s that fresh of an approach which in itself makes this one standout from all those cold weather leather heavy hitters than are hard to wear. This is a well done scent that is now one of my best blind buys ever. I spent $17 on this. $17. Does this smell like a $17 scent? Not even close. I can see people paying $100 for this if a popular designer bottled this. Opens spicy and slightly synthetic, but give it a little bit and it becomes divine. This is a subtle, light leather with an incredible, creamy drydown. Honestly the drydown is what makes this go from like to love for me. This is so easy to wear, projects for at least 4 hours on my skin, and lasts upwards of 6. Spicy, citrussy, classy leather. This leather is so light, so airy, and so gorgeous that you can wear this in just about any occasion. The nutmeg mixed with the citrus and leather is just divine. This is not a sharp citrus, or a bitter one, it’s smooth and fresh. This is not a heavy scent. This is no loud scent that will clear a room. This is a comfortable, soft scent. I also think this is a fantastic night time out scent. This paints a lovely picture of a drive on the highway at the dead of night, watching the lights go by as you slowly cruise along, listening to some slow, nostalgic music with a special other. Honestly I can’t get enough of this and I’m going to buy a backup bottle of this wonderful elixir just in case.
Also I think we’re forgetting something here. The nose behind this scent is Alberto fucking Morillas. A legend of perfumers and responsible for many incredible scents. You’re getting a Morillas scent for bargain bin prices here. He’s one of the big reasons I purchased this juice and I’m not disappointed. What he managed to accomplish with low quality ingredients is just masterful and damn impressive.
So, what’s the deal with these reviews? I can understand people just not liking the scent. But the talks about quality, or knockoffs of Fahrenheit, or longevity and what have you are ridiculous. I can almost guarantee you that if Dior packaged this as a Fahrenheit Fraiche flanker, or Tom Ford marketed this as a ridiculously priced Eau D’Tuscan Leather or something, people would be singing a chorus of praises. Simply, people turn up their snobby noses to this gorgeous scent because it’s a car brand. Yet it’s almost like they’ve forgotten what a hit Bentley’s Intense was. Or perhaps they were hating on that one too, despite it being niche quality and smell at affordable prices. If there’s anything to take away from this, it’s that you can’t really trust a lot of negative reviews on this site. Nor can you trust a lot of positive reviews for big name brands, as the scents tend to be mediocre despite the price tag. At the end of the day, I suppose you should always try before you buy, when you can. But at this price, I wouldn’t hesitate to go in blind. Mr. Morillas took low quality ingredients and made it smell amazing. Well done Mr. Morillas.
Thankfully Youtube reviewers seem to be a little more honest. Thanks Chase for keeping it all about the scent, as it should be, and not about brand politics.
EDIT: I’ve tested this fragrance more, and I still have a faint skin scent 12.5 hours later after applying this stuff… I think in about 30m to an hour more it will be gone for good, but this stayed on my skin for 12 hours boys. I used 2 sprays to start with, then waited 2 hours and used 2 more sprays. I then calculated the time starting from the last 2 sprays I used. So a total of 14 hours on my skin, but technically 12 hours since I reapplied. I think reapplying helped it stay on longer. I honestly wonder if I have the patience to try it with moisturizer, lol. Point being, this stuff lasts and anyone claiming it doesnt is full of it. I know everyone’s skin is different, but now I’m finding a lot of these reviews claiming it doesn’t last to be downright fake. There’s just no way people are getting that low of a performance when I’m here getting over 12. If only the projection lasted longer(only 4 hours), but who am I to complain for this price and this scent.

I picked up this cologne based on the reviews that this was apparently close to Fahrenheit cologne here on this site.. Boy could people further off.. If you want a leathery cologne, this would be it, but if you want a leathery cologne that has both projection and silage, move elsewhere. I litterally sprayed myself with 20 sprays and it was gone in under an hour..

Imagine you’re driving a Ferrari along the coast of Sicily and the blistering heat on the road creates a mirage effect over the road. A subtle whiff of fuel exhaust and fresh lemons clash and suddenly you embody the heat waves, you are in the heat waves, yet the cool ocean breeze is constantly calming the incandescent experience. This is Ferrari Uomo. This is a masterpiece. This is not a beast mode scent, but it is a magnificent scent. This is somewhat linear and the entire experience seems like you’re riding the heart of the fragrance the whole time, and boy is it lovely. You want to stay in that sweet spot for as long as possible. Alberto Morillas killed it.
UPDATE:
The dry down is to die for, its coming off to me like a honey leather.. Just when you think this fragrance is at it’s peak you realize that the very end might just be the most beautiful scent of the whole experience.. frickin fantastic subtle and sweet honey.. is that honey hidden in there? or beeswax? Whatever is doing this is pure genius.
UPDATE 2:
I decided to rock 10 sprays today to test and I’m nuclear 2 hours into it, I don’t know what’s wrong with the guy above, I’ve filled an entire warehouse with scent and I’ve got 4 compliments within 2 hours this morning using this. I feel embarrassed wearing so much as I sit here typing, I’m waiting it for it to tame down a bit, and I’m kind of avoiding people to not be “that guy”. Oddly I feel like I’m about to combust. I feel like fumes are coming off of me and they might be flammable. This has a really awesome fuel accord that’s similar to Fahrenheit, just a bit smoother and not as red.. this is more orange and yellow in color and feel if I were to describe this as a color. Anyway, I definitely think this has ample strength, I’d go maybe 5-8 sprays every wear which is more than vintage Fahrenheit where you’d do maybe 3 or 4 max. My bottles were $14 bucks each and the scent is amazing.
Caveat:
Ok 3.5 hours in and 10 sprays things have finally calmed down to one of the best dry downs of my whole collection, it’s the dry down that keeps me coming back over and over. My co-workers still smell it, so even though the heavy fumes from the 2 hour mark are gone, I’m still leaving a decent trail I’m told. Maybe I’ll ask someone if they smell me at 5 hours and report back.
Ok, 5 hours in, 10 sprays, I ask a co-worker in a different part of the warehouse to tell me if he smells me as I walk by, sure as shit he said he definitely smelled it, I walked by again and he smelled it again, same scent, and had him smell it up close and he’s like yeah, “when you sprayed earlier, you filled the whole building for a minute.” It’s been 56 degrees fahrenheit today and I’m in SLC UT, it’s been raining all week long.. This stuff cuts and performs I tell ya! It’s 1:18PM now. haha
Conclusion:
This is a fresh scent in the dry down, not a heavy sweet tonka like in some date night/gourmand fragrances. It’s a bit transparent and clean after about 3 hours, but it’s still pumping.. It’s so crisp and refreshing. Starts heavy and turns crispy and refreshing in the dry down. Amazing.
nusakisa – :
This can be picked up incredibly cheaply in the UK and is a very decent fragrance.
Agree with many other reviews that this is 100% leathery, creamy Fahrenheit.
If I had a criticism, it is that this does not project that well although it’s longevity is excellent (all day) on my skin.
Not a happy, fresh or uplifting scent, but a very sophisticated office scent given its weak sillage and currently low price.
ilnar929 – :
This stuff is awesome! It’s like a middle ground between Zegna’s Peruvian Ambrette and Fahrenheit. I’d say it’s slightly more masculine than Fahrenheit, as it boasts a stronger, ‘rubbery’ leather note with an animalic kick. It says there is no violet but I still get a similar note to it in the background
Мажестик – :
This actually is not half bad!
Citrus, nutmeg, and surprisingly strong juniper note that reminds me of paco rabanne’s XS…not half bad for the price, really. Casual, very versatile and easy to wear.
mazdaa8 – :
….just put on 11 sprays, off to work., It is more bitter than the Fahrenheit Le Parfum, that I am loving these days. Anyway, I like this juice already, so will get a back up right away for the price and presentation.
,,,Update, 4hrs. later…..Aaand it’s gone. Actually, some skin scent. No projection after 1-2 hours (hot sweaty work this morning, though). I still like this stuff! Btw, my current fav, Fahrenheit Le Parfum goes 10 hrs., easy and projects most of the way…
foster – :
Nice Scent but very weak….8 sprays and still no projection. Waste of money. Avoid.
alkan – :
Blind bought because it has a lot of positive reviews and albert morrilas makes good scents. It smells like a bad ck obsession to me. Definitely for older men. Too spicy to be liked by girls. Smells outdated imho.
Will only keep this because of the beautiful bottle.
ze_proforg – :
I received my bottle today and I quite like the bitterness it projects.
Its very citrussy, bitter more than acidic which makes it different to other citrus perfumes.
I can smell some spice, mainly nutmeg, and I get the woodsy notes too. Leather is there but its no way near TF tusan leather or Aoud leather which I know, its soft leather scent.
Its masculine as it should be, reading the name of the perfume.
Its not a clubbing fragrance, and it can be worn safely in different situtation, in different weather conditions, making it very versatile.
It is uomo after all, so I dont think it will appeal to younger population.
Good sillage, not huge; and decent longevity.
It is good for the price too.
Something about this perfume screams ITALIAN!
антон2 – :
Albert Morillas did it again. What can I say.
I’m dressed in all Harley Leather gear watching the football game. Wow, leather, leather, on some new car leather.
How much I paid for this??? Pennies fragrance family.
Here is a comparison that some may get. It has the scent bubble slash feel of Kiton for men. Soft creamy feel on both. Screw the notes. If you have both spray on both hands and you will see why I said that. They are not clones or even alternatives, just gives that soft creamy feel.
Ok you want notes?
I say leather, soft Tonka bean & soft soft patchouli. So well blended the other notes almost need a police K-9 to sniff it out. Lol. Ijs= I’m just saying…
Score 4/5 for a leather scent easy. Mass appeal crowd pleaser my friends. Not cloying, but noticeable for hours.

When first trying Ferrari Uomo I remember thinking, “Wow! just what is going on here?!”
Having tried quite a lot of the Ferrari fragrances this one stands above them substantially, incredibly well made and just crazy value at the price you can get it at. I managed to get the full kit (EDT, shower gel, deo stick etc) for around £30, insane value.

Can safely say this is the first Ferrari fragrance where I can certainly pick up the Italian influence which is fitting.
Very classy, very masculine IMHO.
Thumbs up! 🙂
