When I first smelled this scent, I exclaimed: “The Hell! I can not understand if it’s a man or a woman perfume but my God it’s so good”. Roma Uomo is an exceptional fragrance, sometimes beautiful but I’m sorry to say it’s not for me. It could be safely Unisex. It ‘a fragrance that is easily confused with its female counterpart “Rome” which, however, is sweeter and this is already enough. In the opening phase I also feel a fruity note that tastes like peach. If I was a woman I would wear it every time, for any occasion because this is a scent that is worth and deserves the fame it has but I would never be able to wear it because I find it devoid of masculinity. However, it remains a wonderful fragrance and I’m so sorry! Great.

I first bought this back in the mid 90’s when it first came out and it was my signature fragrance. So I decided to relive old memories and got a new bottle today. Unfortunately, since its reformulation, I must say that the dry down is nothing like the original. It opens up fresh with grapefruit, bergamot, basil and galbanum. It’s spicy and makes it presence known. A true Italian powerhouse. But the drydown is now a let-down. All I get now is cheap galbanum and benzoin and not in a very positive way. The depth that was there before is gone. Although I can smell the essence of what used to be there it now smells almost offensive and… cheap. Like an inexpensive shower gel. No, I know I am going against what most other reviewers are saying but perhaps they never tried the original formulation. As they reformulated it they switched to cheaper ingredients using the cheaper synthetic kind. Unfortunately this bottle will not be getting frequent use. What a shame because Roma used to be so great.

A very woody aromatic fragrance, warm,dry,creamy resinous,vanillic and some floral notes for the sweetness. Totally underrated,monster projection leaving a tapestry of wonderful karmatic emotions. A guy at the gym was wearing it and he smelled so elegant and sexy leaving an aura of woodiness all over the place, finally I had to ask him what he was wearing,I thought it was a niche perfume , I said Cool Water Davidoff as first guess but to my surprise it was Roma Uomo. Best test it or smell it from a friend or person to appreciate it.

#richmilton – as You can see on the bottle and on the package as well, it says Roma UOMO – so it´s mareketed only to men (doesn´t mean women can´t wear this scent as 2 of my female colleagues keep stealing this scent from me but the name of the cologne simply suggests it´s a male fragrance). So I humbly recommend You not to buy this scent to Your wife and staying alive instead.
As far as I know, there is Roma for Men (this one – Uomo) and Roma for Women (Donna) which has been released several years earlier – You can buy her a female version but I highly recommend to try it at first as it´s quite a heavy and sweet fragrance if I remember that well.
crupFoono – :
Is there a unisex version of this? I noticed a lot of women here (mostly American I assume) are saying this is unisex. But the title says it’s “For Men.” I’m confused. I want to buy it for my wife but she would never wear a man’s fragrance. She’s Asian and very feminine. Unlike American woman she doesn’t want to wear a cologne marketed to men. So is this unisex like so many woman here claim? If so, please correct the title because it says for guys. All I need is to buy her this and find out guys at her work wears this… she would kill me! Lol.

Smells like fancy fabric softener, very smooth frag.
Spac9 – :
Amazing scent! Makes me feel the spring in Rome. I enjoy sniffing it because it is so pleasant and relaxing.
I get very good performance for 6 hours, then starts to disappear. Projects very well on my skin. And it is cheap. For this money there is no better spring choice!

R.I.P. Laura….you made one of my favorite gentleman scents and the favorite female version of my mom and my long gone aunt…. 🙁 I’m spraying my Roma all day
apelisinoviyportal – :
I was curious to get this one based on the reviews, and well I did, and finally wearing today, but I am not feeling it, it does not bring any joy on me wearing it, I think is sort of cloying and the type of “Caesar Man” cologne, it has that car freshener type that I’ve never liked.
Any one interested on a trade?
p.s. I have Minotaure from Paloma Picasso and I don’t think they are alike IMO.
I just found that Mrs Biagotti passed today, and although the nose behind this cologne is not hers, but Annick Menardo, who has created some other ones that I like a lot, and actually some of them fall in my loved ones, so I can’t believe she is the same nose that created this Roma cologne. I sold it to a friend for 2 dlls in the yard sale.
I kind of paid tribute to Laura, wearing for the first time this cologne that bears her name, R.I.P.
MnKron – :
Very plesant scent, fresh, sweet and mature as Italian style. Never get bored.
Great for the office or close enconters. Good sillage and longevity. After 8 hour i still get a hint.
It is gentleman scent and classy.
For me 8/10.
tessei330 – :
I sampled Roma Uomo simply out of curiosity because so many reviewers liken it to Minotaure by Paloma Picasso, a men’s fragrance for which I have a real soft spot. The comparisons absolutely have a point: both fragrances have the same green-mineral-resinous quality, abstract fruitiness, understated balsamic base, and salty skin musk. I love this style of fragrance — it feels relaxed and Mediterranean, distinctly masculine and sexy, but still friendly, youthful, charismatic, and charming.
If you’re familiar with both of these fragrances it is almost impossible not to compare them, because they really are very similar and Roma feels like a spiritual successor to Minotaure. Minotaure’s galbanum/aldehyde beginning is a little bit rough and discordant, and in Roma this is smoothed out and the warm ambery-vanillic texture underneath is amplified.
It pains me to say this (because I really do love the unbridled brashness and rawness of Minotaure) but Roma is more successful as an overall fragrance. The composition is more rounded and fleshed out, and the longevity and sillage are a significant improvement. But the name, bottle, and ad campaign of Roma cannot compare to Minotaure’s boldness and individuality. I think from now on I’ll spray on Roma and just pretend I’m wearing Minotaure.

Blind buy and did not had any regrets , Vanilla and at that special moment the pine tree leaps out of no where , Try before buy and a must have for those collectors!

The basil, citrus opening of Roma per Uomo takes me to a new place every time I spray it. It can be a stroll down a ruelle in France, or a walk in the Napa Valley on a cool spring day. For me Roma is strangely warm and cooling at the same time. It is very italian and very stylish. The basil opening sets up the jasmine and the coniferous notes to create this slow sweet, floral progression into an almost vanilla like woody/amber sweetness. Roma is linear but enjoyable. There is this beautiful natural aura around this fragrance. Sure the longevity isn’t great but the scent as a whole is a pleasurable olfactory experience. This is a great scent for spring and summer. This scent begs to be worn when meeting an acquaintance over an espresso in the late afternoon.
DXAN – :
Underrated scent!
But longevity is bad.
heiserind – :
I remembered this one after smelling Belmont Derby club from Armaf , my father had a bottle of Roma per uomo in his collection and I remember how potent it was, the scent is still stuck in memory. It had a strong orange bergamot smell that you cannot miss, mellowed down by vanilla, that’s all I could figure out growing up to this smell.
It is one of few frags that smell of bergamot and oranges but still very masculine. Enormous projection too.
seregabugulma – :
citrus, subtle amber, honey… beautiful and pretty linear perfume which lasts about 4 hours, it has one of the most natural scents I’ve experienced
casiomen – :
Amazing fregrance.Great projection
Underrated imo
mahovik – :
Roma per uomo is a very likable, warm mediterranean scent that really mirrors the warm temperament of the eternal city, with a beautiful basil note, sweetened with vanillic benzoin, heliotrope and jasmine.
It’s got lovely curves and soft edges() yet a green herbal undertone of pine and a touch of galbanum. The effect is very comforting, the same vibe as the delightful Dior’s “Dolce Vita”.
Not very layered, rather a straight up sunny Italian composition, quite cute:)
scent: 7+/10
longevity: 5/10
sillage: 6/10
saintdron – :
Interesting fragrance for warm weather, the most striking resemblance for me is oleander … not listed anywhere in the dominant notes. Is it masculine enough ? Not a typical masculine flavor, kind of a strong floral note, but definitely a very original mediterranean note.
krasyarBB – :
I enjoy wearing Roma pour Uomo and it is almost more likeable to me, than feminine version, that I also love and own for many years. Its effortlessly chic, relaxing, soft, creamy, smooth, the softest and creamiest pine tree with juniper, by the way. From the first spray it is like..buttery, if you understand the comparison. Whether that balsam’s of fir with benzoin contribution, but the blend is absolutely gorgeous. Projection and lasting time is very good as well.
To me it is not similar with Minotaure by Paloma Picasso, (also big like of mine) its probably goes in same direction, but they are not like kids from same mother and father anyway. Minotaure is sharper, more herbal and dry-frutier, Roma is again, – soft, creamy, woody – due to pine and cedar.
aleksgaponov2011 – :
And it lasted 2 days…
Well, hello there stranger! You are curious about this perfume? Say no more.
From the begining Roma starts warm, smooth and most important caring. Caring? Yes…you read that right! How? Well, that’s the real magic of this perfume, everytime you smell it you feel like some white, delicate hands on your face. An angel? No. It’s just the magic powder you get after you really feel Roma. For me, personally, honest it’s almost the same from start to the end. But did I mention that’s something wrong? Not at all…but it could be a little better on this side. I’m not into sweet perfumes but I feel this in another category and that is the mood that you feel sure on a date and you know that everything will come as it needs to be.
Mhm, when to wear this? In the afternoon, when you can see the sunset while you are at a vintage restaurant with side view to feel and see the sun when you and your love share the same feelings! This perfume is the bridge between you and her. It’s not to strong, it’s not to weak, it’s just for her nose, not others. She needs to feel it, to know that you are there for every second beside her. Remember the care I mentioned earlier? Here’s the perfect moment! Just take Roma a chance and maybe you will feel as I felt when I first sniffed it :-).
8.5/10
smagins – :
Hello all you balloon poppers! I was a bit severe in my (first) review of Roma, I confess. Decided to give it another go after quite some time. I almost threw the bottle away earlier! Well, I still find the opening notes of pine and citrus to be not right in my alley. However,it does get better after a while. The key is to not overspray or those notes will become almost suffocating. I get the best out of Roma when I layer it with Axe Africa, those 2 work very well together. UPDATE: I never thought Roma would become one of my fave scents, but it did after quite a while…
serg.ar2011 – :
A classy men’s fragrance!
I personally am glad that even today it’s available days of perfume.
Even if only one treadmill – called “light” – versions !!!
At the time of publication there was a “freak” among the scents that time!
Almost smell went against the trend in the 90s!
But more striking and more unique phenomenon in itself was a civilized way!
I think in today’s world begins to come alive when a “retro” feeling great fashion and may pass this veteran fragrance for today’s fashion world perception and an occasional perfume last!
I think it is from the original release and now is 10 / 10 !!!
The revised version I think is slightly underperform, but it is still a “bright spot” in addition to today’s fragrance !!
Heritage Classic!
tashka – :
It’s just impossible to dislike this scent…aroma seems to be very familiar but it’s really unlike any other fragrance….it’s soft, pleasant but also deep , long -lasting, warm …. like the best balm that soothes pain and brings relief. It is not the perfume that is needed to seducing or giving some splendor for user…it is perfume that shows -quite simply-the scent of beauty.
inviting – :
it’s simple, not overpowering, smells clean, you get the feeling like freshly washed in the best fabric softener in the world 🙂 at the end it’s close to skin and really sweet….besides d&g’s the one, this is a true gentleman, very cary grant like feel 😉
and the bottle is cool
all in all, very addictive scent
one of my favorites

WHAT A NICE SMELL!.
danik9000 – :
This is a perfect example of a perfume that has a very misleading name. There is actually nothing wrong with Roma Uomo but when compared with Roma the name leads one to believe that this is just a masculine version of the Roma, which is marketed as a perfume for women. Since I love the smell of Roma and then tried Roma Uomo and it was not remotely like it, I was annoyed. I was expecting, and wanted a more masculine version of Roma. Why can’t these perfume houses do this when they have a men’s and women’s version of a perfume with the same name? If they are not remotely alike, would it just not make more sense to call it something completely different? Really the whole thing went wrong when someone got the stupid idea to start arrogantly assuming that he or she had better sense of taste than the consumer and would decide for him or her which perfumes men should wear and which women should. Think what would happen if everyone decided for himself what he wants to wear! Apart from this perfume being too citrusy, with pine, which I do not like in any fragrance at all, and lacking sweetness, I do not find it warm at all. I fine it green, piney, and cold with no musky warmth or floral sweetness. Even the cedar and sandalwood are most certainly from the synthetics sandaxol, sandela and cedral. It does go on strong and has great sillage, there is no wearing this one discreetly. And it does last quite a while. With all that said, it is not a terrible perfume, but not at all animalic or floral, so the only thing that could make it worse for me would be to add lavender, and an oceanic, fresh, sporty notes. So if you are looking for a dry, woody, aromatic perfume with hints of pine and juniper then this is worth trying but if you are at all expecting something similar to Roma then forget it, the name is the only similarity.
tracovaveas – :
The very sharp and synthetic lemon in Roma kills all the other notes, making it rather more resemblant to a detergent than Paloma Picasso’s wonderful Minotaure. I washed this of me after a while as it was irritating my throat and nose, it is that pungent. Projection and longevity is really good though. Scent-wise Roma falls well short of Minotaure who is more unique, warmer, sweeter, fruitier and overall a superior scent.
cancer – :
A good Parfum. Warm,sweet,romantic… relax me. The benzoin ago backdrop to all the other notes in a perfect way. A perfume indicated more for fall according to my taste .. has a moderate sillage and longevity on me lasts 6-7 hours. I like the drydown, thick and creamy .. a delicious perfume.
Sillage: 7.5/10
Longevity: 8/10

yashapukin – :
This is sweet like memories (however stupid it sounds:) classical 90´s.
My husband said it was too sweet, so i started to use it, satisfied.
It could be easily labeled as unisex these days – sweeter than the female version, but in fact, who cares.
Roma Uomo doesn´t smell very original, either deep. It´s not for evening intellectual conversations. It´s more like lazy summer holiday. Soothing, soft, sweet and easygoing elegant.
What i remember from my youth, from resorts in south of Europe – warm summer breeze brings this beautiful melange: blooming hibiscus bushes and other flowers, fresh fruit from local market, pine forests, blazing rocks, cafés and pastry shops with piles of quality ice cream, all kinds of nuts dipped in honey; all that mixed with the smell of beaches – tan oils and lotions, evening relax and fun on the promenades, full of nice smelling dresses and drinks, hotel rooms with clean beddings…
Same as summer holiday – the enchantment of RU won´t last forever. It has a little bit chemical vanilla – benzoin base, that reminds me of vanilla candles (but most modern fragrances are much worse)
The male notes are very gently represented by basil, juniper and cedar. The grapefruit fades within minutes and then comes barely perceptible, velvety bitter galbanum.
The base smells with soft sandalwood and sweet benzoin (maybe too sweet).
Pleasant woody-vanillic-resinous aroma.
Longevity on my skin is not worth a mention, but it lasts all day on cotton.
It´s kitchy and plain, but I find it “lovely”. It gives me flashback, it triggers a scenery. I love when perfumes do that.
ann777 – :
I used this fragrance some couple of years ago as unisex. It’s enjoyable pleasant fresh sweet juice. Suits to shy, modern young boys or girls. It’s too soft and I miss a little tricky and wildness, but it’s enough good in warmer weather or spend a lazy day with/in Roma:)
фаяз – :
It’s a very unique fragrance. It’s something that I like to sniff. But it’s not something that I wouldn’t want to wear everyday.
How does it smell like? I think it smells like going to a lovely pasticceria after a good dinner meal in Italy. It smells like…Tiramisu + Stracciatella Gelato!
That’s why it’s something that I like to sniff, but I wouldn’t want to wear it myself 🙂
FILIPPOV – :
Mine is not the popular opinion, but I’ll describe it to the best of my ability. What I like about this cologne is the incredibly sweet, candy-like feel. If you love sugar coated gummy orange slices or orange cream sorbet, a whiff of this will undoubtedly give you a rush of dopamine. It’s the most artificially flavored men’s fragrance I have ever come across, and it is as comforting as a fresh blanket from the dryer. What I don’t like, however, is very similar to what I like about it- it’s a candy-coated concoction and just doesn’t really feel like a scent I want to be known for. It’s the least complex cologne I’ve ever tried, particularly since it simply cannot evolve. If the top notes are divine to you, you’ll probably not care about its relative stagnation. However, I just don’t find this a good scent to have on my skin. Maybe to refresh a room, but not as a social enchancer. But hey, that’s just my opinion. Sillage and projection were kinda mediocre on me, but it does last. I give it a 2.9/5. Smells superb for a potential Febreeze fragrance.
avmanton – :
A pretty unique fragrance – especially here in the USA. I don’t know anyone else who wears this, and I’m fine with that. This is a very good, almost year-round fragrance. There’s some citrus and fruit, along with some sweet resin (maybe vanilla?) and wood. Again, here in the States, you will not find too many people who wear this. A great scent, and one of the most versatile in my collection.
PASPRONDERS – :

kazak972 – :

setax – :
Smells like an orange dreamsicle and I love orange dreamsicles. Probably oversimplifying but this is a great male scent despite being a gourmand. The added spice from woody base notes make this work perfectly. Both the vintage and reformulation smell great but the vintage lasts longer.
Periafrip – :
I don’t remember if I’ve tried this on years ago in the stores or not.? I recently obtained a sample of this to try out. It smells both sweet and spicy. I like it because of that. The sweetness isn’t cloying either. So, where is this sweetness coming from? I did look into this further and even started a thread the “men’s” area of the Club. I think the floral notes of Jasmine and Heliotrope(which I’ve rarely heard about and smells similar to Vanilla) are what’s causing the sweetness besides Benzoin which is a type of resin. I was also perplexed by this having spice notes in it until it occurred to me that “Basil” is a spice even though lots of times referred to as an herb. I think maybe Juniper, Cedar and Patchouli may play a part in the “spice-like” aroma even though they aren’t spices. This fragrance smells classy and it’s one to enjoy in the day or night in the Fall and Winter.
l270682 – :
for me this is a dinner with my lady in italian restaurant on the beach at the sunset while ocean breeze is gently waving our hair (to me it smells very “italian” in its way and bring back memories of Italy almost instantly)…elegant, fruity, nonchalant and sweet yet versatile enough to be worn by any age group (as Rhonoray mentioned)…and yes, it´s a bit similar to Minotaure and seems to be predecessor of Hugo Boss Bottled (but Roma is much about citruses while HBB is spicy apple-pie frag:)… 8.5/10
chela8661 – :
Another ‘Italian stallion’! There’s something about these Italian fragrances which is just so seductive. Another favourite is mine is Moschino Uomo (check that one out if you haven’t!). Anyway, back to Roma Per Uomo. It opens up very fresh with a citrus/orange smell and is joined by a woody/green smell in the mid and basenotes. Masculine, but not macho. Popular, but still unique.
The fragrance is from 1994 but it stands the test of time without any problem. Roma is a true classic which brightens up my day whenever I get a whiff of it. Perfect for the office. Good for all-year round use. Amazing as a compliment-getter (I had many). Conclusion: an affordable, versatile and superb-smelling addition to any collection!
mkrt63 – :
quite common in italy, this is a good quality scent. it smells like “sweet oranges”, in a good sense.. elegant and versatile, can be used at daytime and night; it has class. there’s something in this scent that reminds me of the 90s.. anyways i think this better suits people above 25.

Volkosob – :
The first time I laid eyes on this beautiful and evocative bottle, I was in my teens, during the 90s. My best friend and I used to sample perfumes at our local Sephora on Saturday afternoons. I remember being captivated by this bottle and its colours. I wondered what it smelled like, but then I noticed that it was for men, and felt too embarrassed to even touch it (heh… it’s ironic, as most of the fragrances I now own are marketed toward men). Since then, I never sampled this juice again, until I recently decided to blind buy a small bottle of it. Not only had I read loads of positive reviews of Roma per Uomo, but I felt that it was about time for me to purchase this beauty, whose concept I had been infatuated with for over a decade.
I have a little of this juice left in my bottle, and I’m seriously considering buying it again. Grapefruit, orange, and benzoin are definitely the main players in this fragrance. I also detect a faint accord that reminds me a bit of incense. I’d stopped wearing it for a while, because I’d grown a bit tired of the benzoin accord. However, this is really a gem. If you love it, it can easily be a signature scent. A couple of light sprays, and you’re pretty much set. This is not a sillage monster, unless you overapply. If you do, it WILL become cloying. Roma has personality, but doesn’t need to shout to be noticed. Longevity is good, even longer on clothes. This is a timeless aroma that gently exudes strength and class. Definitely unisex.
ramin911 – :
Tried it this morning. Mixed feelings: the opening is very pleasant and warm, packed with smooth citrus. Then it transforms into something more complex (flowers!) but far less powerful. Drydown is very close to the skin, and it’s a pity – sandalwood is really beautiful here. Moderate longevity, disappointing sillage. Probably it’s my body chemistry, but I’ll go for something else.
yankoz.lov – :
Roma is wonderful. Originally bought this scent back in the 90’s and wanting to recapture my youth I bought a 125ml on ebay. It is how I remember. Very exotic and spicy and lasts all day. Very powerful and top class scent. Women love this scent, very Italian and a true classic. Highly recommended.
sld_1 – :
Very versatile perfume on my skin, in the winter I smell more sweetness like vanilla / benzoin, but in summer I smell more citrus like grapefruit and bergamot, always very balmy. Good quality, I tried the flankers too but this one cannot be beaten by them. Longevity and sillage are decent and better than the other Roma Uomo versions.

stigman5 – :
This was one of my first international colognes, together with Quartz Pour Homme and Café Café. And brings me great memories, as my first job, when I was still a boy of 17 years old, wearing social clothes and starting the “grown up” life style.
Roma Uomo is a delight, which opens with galbanum, basil and grapefruit, jumping to a delicious heart of jasmine, heliotrope, pine and juniper to then, get to its creamier base of sandalwood, patchouli and benzoin. The result is a creamy, sophisticated aroma that evokes the richness and elegance.
More than to find an occasion to wear it, the important thing is to find the perfect state of mind to sustain it.
Beautiful creation!

It was a privilege and it is still a pleasure to meet you, LB’s Roma Uomo!
Such a great perfume – and equally great is my regret that I discovered you just recently, just a couple of years before these lines are written.
How could I be so sightless? Where were my senses?
Roma Uomo is a colorful combination of citruses and sweets. It’s enthusiastic and joyful. It is a mature scent, but emanates the spirit of the Latin youth. His sweetness is not the Mugler’s or D&G’s one – but is that kind of aroma that will describe a city and his gents.
Of course, you may like it or not – is just normal.
My advice is to taste it. At least a few of you will adore it.
A deserved 9+/10
faramir9000 – :
LB Roma per uomo among all perfumes I know, is a outstanding masterpiece.
It is elegant, sophisticated and prudent. Its like Rome itself impressive and yet it is friendly.
It starts with a fresh citric scent with a trace of the incense you can smell in the many churches of Rome.
In the heart it is like the scent of the the old Roman monuments with some green nuances and jasmine.
At last it is like a oriental scent with the aromas of Italian food served in the evening. In the base there is sandalwood and patouchli. It is really a special perfume.
It doesn’t smell chemical like some modern perfumes like CK. Its a real Italian perfume which is really extremely long lasting for EDT.
It is really one of the best.
How good and nice a perfume can be depends on its ingredients. That is something I discovered just reading the sticker on the bottom. It says: natural spray * vaporisateur. When I looked at some perfumes that I have and that are for more than 80% natural, I was surprised that Laura Biagiotti Roma uomo had the same description. So now I know for sure that most ingredients of this great perfume are natural because this is an official product contents remark in the EU.
Yes I wondered already before I discovered this that this perfume smelled so natural. Wow what a masterpiece.
( The other Roma perfumes don’t have this remark btw)

This is absolutely no mainstream fragrance. It’s very different and I have not smelled anything similar.
It’s my bf’s signature scent and it smells really good on him. Also projects strongly and has great longevity on him.
It’s a wonderful sweet scent with a fresh twist.It’s balmy, creamy and well rounded. No sharp edges at all.
Unique!!
Definitely unisex as well, I’m wearing it right now. However I do find this to smell better on my bf. Not that it smells bad on me, it just smells different and better on him ;D
Dracoshca – :
This is awesome. I literally waited years, nearly a decade, before I decided to buy this one. The bottle alone mesmerised me, but the positive reviews about the scent finally convinced me to try it. This is a true gem. So well-blended, yet I can distinguish most of its notes. Longevity is moderate, and it can last for days on clothes. It’s also inexpensive, and could easily be unisex. It’s sweet but not overly so. However, if you’re not into sweet fragrances, I’m not sure you will appreciate this. It’s not loud, so I find it hard to believe it could offend anyone’s nose (unless oversprayed). It’s a comforting and classy scent.
spartak73reg – :
Masterpiece.
It reminds me a sailing cruise around Elba, Ishia, Ventotène, Ponza, Gianuttri, Procida near Napoli… Soft and addictive, Orange and vanilla with a creamy side. It smells happiness and civilization through thyrenian sea’s port of call… Bravo, 10 / 10
Je viens de me procurer celui-là : effectivement un délice, et je vois bien le coucher de soleil, l’air est encore chaud avec les agrumes, mais on sent la douceur nocturne en embuscade, dans ce fond crémeux et vanillé… La soirée sera belle, les gens charmants et l’on entendra au pied des terrasses le léger ressac de la Méditerranée… Exquise Italie, à la faveur d’une escale en mer Thyrénienne… Bravo, 10 / 10

Having worn & loved Due Uomo, I decided I’d go for Roma without trying it. Bang! It hit me from open to close as if we had been best friends for long. From spraying time to retiring time, this boy is active i tell you. Many a person I work with always have a good word upon it, talk of strangers tapping you on the shoulder to ask you what you’re wearing, this boy follows me all the time without being dominative cause, “Come On” I’m the boss at the end of the day right?, right!
Would I seek his services again?, hell yes! On me, this chap has it all in terms of duration, projection and sillage. We make a pretty good team I say.

ROMA is a pure delight. It is soft and sweet, I love it! For a Sunday afternoon stroll, perfect.

I got this as a gift ( from Italy )…It’s not easy to find here in the States.
In short, its nice, soft, subtle and sweet
