Valentino Uomo Intense Eau De Parfum 100ml Spray For Him

Product Information

Valentino Uomo is conceived as a young Italian heir, whose timeless elegance comes from his legacy. The new edition of the fragrance Valentino Uomo from 2014, Valentino Uomo Intense, comes out in the spring of 2016, announced as the more intense, charismatic and masculine version. I'm kind of known for not enjoying vanilla in my scents guys but in here its perfect. I can't even lie.. As much as I love the entire Dior Homme line, and Dior Homme Original EDT is and always will be my favourite scent in the history of mankind, Uomo Intense does it for me more than Dior Homme Intense does. In conclusion, if I had to choose, I’d go for DHI, by a very small margin, maybe 9.2 vs. 9.5 (yes, I REALLY enjoy both). For the first 20 mins this is ever so slightly more masculine than the newest one (in that it’s a little more aromatic and slightly less sweet). And this is maybe slightly stronger (or maybe more sprayed out than from my sample of the newest one). But essentially they smell the same. And the dry down is identical.

OCCASIONS: Formal events, outdoor gatherings, office, business, casual, clubbing. In moderation, this is an office-friendly fragrance. This is amazing, totally unisex. A must try as it’s unlike anything else I’ve sampled. Definitely less masculine than Dior Homme Intense which I wouldn’t wear myself as it has more of a masculine drydown on my skin. I just got Valentino uomo intense from notino UK, and the bottle is different, it's not a built-in atomisers. mine has a cap and spikes around the collar or the bottle. Valentino Uomo Intense EDP opens with a strong projection of sweet, leather, and spicy accords. The opening is bold, masculine, mature, elegant, projecting, and very pleasant. The clary sage comes up for a moment, just to pave the way for the leather. The clary sage contributes with a sweet, herbaceous, spicy, and leathery touch, the mandarin orange, is almost unnoticeable. Soon after the initial application the leather and iris fully develop, the iris creates a mild and projecting powdery accord. The leather is the most prominent note, aromatic, bold, dark, but not animalic or offensive, but with that combustible or gasoline vibe found in fragrances that feature strong leathery accords, yet, it comes across as refined and elegant. The tonka bean and vanilla are the sweetening notes, noticeable but not as strong as the leather, they contribute with their sweetness and a bit of a gourmand delectable touch. The opening to dry down transition is relatively linear, the fragrance opens with a strong projection, bold and intense, but as it transitions, it softens to a moderate projection. The iris makes the fragrance mild powdery. The leather accord is consistently the featured note. Once Valentino Uomo Intense EDP has reached its full dry-down, it can be summarized as a moderate projection, leather, sweet tonka, vanilla, and powdery iris fragrance with spicy accords. The fragrance feels bold, casual, classy, commanding, delectable, dry, elegant, exotic, formal, heavy, high-quality, imposing, leathery, masculine, mature, mysterious, nocturnal, powdery, refined, sophisticated, sweet, warm, and very pleasant. The face of the perfume is French actor Louis Garrel. The refined design of the original bottle remained the same, coated in a darker shades of gray. Available as a 50 and 100 ml Eau de Parfum.

where have I been? I mean, I was late to the Dior Homme party but this party here. absolute banger! same goes for the Valentino uomo 😚👌🏾 The longevity is ok, about 6-8 hours with good projection for the first 2. I find it quite versatile and easy to wear all year except summer. I also own DHP and Prada l'homme intense and i find them way too strong for warmer days. The bottle is just beautiful, one of the best bottles i've ever seen.

Performance is good. Sillage and projection are felt in the first two, three hours and persistence on the skin 5 ... 6 hours. However, the perfume lasts a few days on clothes, which is why I recommend spraying on fabrics.

Because it does have a designer vibe to it's scent, it does last a good long while, even more on clothing. But if you spray on clothing you are not going to get as good of a whiff of the Iris as that note tends to soak into clothing and get lost. I prefer to over-spray on skin AND clothing with this frag. By about half an hour later, both colonies start to drift slightly apart, following slightly different paths. Valentino felt more linear, still iris-strong, whereas DHI’s iris begins to settle a bit and you’re left with an extremely pleasant “chocolatey” aroma (maybe the cocoa powder some reviewers mention?). This has the perfect sillage, it isn't enormous but its just enough that you dont offend anyone, but you 100% will get noticed when entering the room. Actually I find it funny when I have this special ability to "stun" my friends, from time to time I just see them blankly staring and just trying to smell and process it in their mind. I have heard the "you are wearing Valentino right?" with the smiles on their faces. They know that this is my signature scent and they love it! Uomo Intense doubles down on that Iris while giving you some daring and confident leather behind it. It's addictive. Had a friend who isn't really into fragrances just get completely mesmerized when I got into her car one day. Starting asking me all types of questions about perfumery lol.

The Sage and Tonka do make it lean designerish, but in a good way. The Tonka makes this a dark fragrance. The Iris plays a middle support role unfortunately because i just want more & more, and for it to outside the other prominent notes. So i over-spray like a mf! lol :D It does give off a bit of a 'come hither' sexy vibe to it. And because it's such a dark fragrance, i call this my 'dark horse' frag, that really represents my personality. Both the opening, the middle and the base blend very well. Orange juice and tonka sweeten the composition while the iris is wrapped in a silk leather making it very attractive and chic. In light of these, I can only recommend it with confidence. This is a 'dark freshy'. It's citrus brightens up the dark dna of the other ingredients, while the Iris makes it sexy.Initial projection is strong at around 6 feet. Sillage is very strong, leaving a heavy scent trail. After a few hours the projection was still more than arms length and the scent trail was still easily noticeable. After around 8 hours the projection was still about arms length and there was still an easily noticeable scent trail. At the 12 hour mark, the projection was within 12 inches, but there was still a slightly noticeable scent trail. Beast mode performance. Unfortunately, as far as performance is concerned, I couldn't complete the experiment as I ended up having an unscheduled meeting at night and had to take a shower. After the shower, I could still smell both on my arms almost equally well.
