Gai Mattiolo Uomo

oh dear Uomo by GM! I miss you so much! Please come back to me! you were on of my favourites until that stupid day when you were stolen by thieves from my apt. I love you no matter what, no matter how many years have gone, no matter how many perfumes I have now or will have in a future. You will be a big part of the memory of sweet youth that we both shared. I will always have you in my mind! Love.S.

A mixture between rive gauche pour homme and Prada infusion d'homme with a bit more emphasis on the Infusion..Hidden gem...so what's not to like/love here ? Summer morning holiday scent to me... Edit.. it also smells a lot like Kenzo Power... 8/10

I love this fragrance; it starts fresh and citrusy thanks to the star anise, lemon and bergamot; after few minutes it becomes soft along with rose, pepper, musk and woodsy notes.

I must admit I am not the biggest fan of late 90s masculine as they often have this post-CK-one aeriform quality to them. My good friend has plenty of deadstock Gai Mottolo Uomo to go around, and sent me a bottle, and it's driven by polycyclic musks while all else in their orbit feels vague. Vague citrus, vague anise, vague rose. It all feels a little too vague, though, so that I cannot attach myself to it. It's pleasant enough, if just a bit too much the tenor of its time. What potential it does present in concept would be fully realized by Kenzo Power, released ten years later, where Olivier Polge turns floral, spicy vague inside out with the glue of labdanum and tolu. Overall, this is nice, but I can't connect to its vibe.

One of those forgotten gems nobody talks about. A well made, semi creamy fresh neroli-citrus scent, with light powdery nuances. There's a peppery touch and the base is a light musk, but it's pleasant overall with a very nice powdery citrus accord. I don't get any barbershop style accord from it, but I can picture this as sort of a beta version of Prada Infusion d'Homme but with more citrus. Great for warmer weather. Easy to wear and overall I don't have anything negative to say about it except maybe that the performance is fleeting. It doesn't smell unique but you can't go wrong for the price. I'm not sure whether it's discontinued or not, but it's worth checking out if you enjoy these fresh, powdery citrus scents. 7,5/10

Great fragrance, basically it smells breezy and spicy. It gives you the impression of being surrounded by a marine aura with a touch with spicy anise. Longevity is great, amazing considering this a clean fresh scent and sillage is perfect! There is also a woodsy touch but it's just here to supporting the fresh notes.

oh no!!! this one is awful, but i think, that my bottle,,no my juice in the bottle must be bad, b cause i really don t like this one at all....really...i am so dissapointed!!!
