Biagiotti Due Uomo

Due Uomo was one of my first scent that I was infatuated with in my fragrance journey. The opening with some lime and vetiver (the green side of it) that went to patchouli and light coconut was something that really was different from what I had sniffed to that point and it was so good that I just had to have it even if it wasn’t in stocked in my local shops beyond the lonely tester. Drydown brings the coconut forward a bit especially if you get warmth to the spot you sprayed the fragrance and overall it brings the scent alive with some resin and meaby smoke something lightly sweet. Without the added warmth the scent is nice but bit forgettable dusty vetiver/patchouli and coconut whispering in the background mostly unnoticeable, sadly. Longevity is actually nice on me, lasts pretty much all day though sillage lets me down as I’m lazy individual that doesn’t get enough heat from activities usually so the fragrance is mostly just a skin scent. However, if I get some heat from whatever source to fragrance it quickly gets acceptable sillage. Overall Due Uomo is inoffensive, cheap scent that would be nice for active people or on warmer weather. Speaking on weather, I find it one of those nice scents that I feel like wearing though whole year even if it performs better in sunshine, it’s fresh enough for hot weather but it has also some backbone for colder days; not for the extreme weathers for either end but still. I’m happy with this one still, even though it isn’t as great as it was for me when I got it all those years ago.

I like the smell, just like. Not any projection and longevity tho :(

A fragrance with coconut and incense notes? wow...I though this would be my new favorite fragrance. oh how wrong was I Due first smells little citrusy...nothing special. then it becomes very clean smelling, soapy with hint of coconut...disgusting! I tried to wash it off my skin but the scent stayed! ugh I gave it to my father, he wears everything

Unbelievably dull. Poor lasting power, which in this case is not a bad thing. Pretty nice bottle though. Shame about the contents.

A long time ago, when I went on a trip in Italy, I was looking for a gift and I've chosen Laura by Laura Biagiotti, because my wife's name is Laura and the smell fits her very nice. Last year she return my gift, buying me a Due Uomo by the same house. She knew that I like resinous-herbal-sweet type parfumes and she was no mistake with this. It is such a wonderful fragrance for cold times: it opens with a fresh-sweety smell of lime, patchouli and resin (such a strange & nice combination, b.t.w), then is progressing through earthy-greeny notes of vetiver and sage (about 2-3 hrs) with the musky faints of opoponax still felt, until the sweet basenotes take control of the stage; The final combination of star-anise and incense, with random coconut milk can be a liitle too sweet, but very acceptable. My overall rank: 7.5/10. ☣☣☣
