Uomo?

I grabbed this as a tester off FragFlex — no retail box, no lid, paid about fifteen bucks and some change — and I could not believe what I was smelling. First spray, I’m thinking, “Okay... powdery.” There’s this clean, soapy powderiness right out of the gate, but not baby powder and definitely not that dated, dusty vibe. It’s just a smooth, airy softness that feels intentional. Then it shifts. That powdery layer gives way to a sparkling, citric, aldehydic brightness that’s almost fizzy. I completely understand why people compare this to Parfums de Marly Sedley in those early stages. There’s a soda-like effervescence — bright, slightly sweet, aromatic, and uplifting. It has that pop. That sparkle hangs around for a bit before slowly calming down. As the fizz settles, the spices start to peek through. Coriander and cinnamon work subtly in the background, never loud, never abrasive. Sage threads through it and keeps everything aromatic and refined. What really stands out, though, is this creamy texture that feels familiar but not obvious. It’s not sandalwood, but it has that kind of aromatic creaminess. After digging around a bit, Brazilian rosewood seems to be the likely source. It gives this lightly floral, gently woody smoothness that rounds everything out in a way that feels both retro and modern at the same time. The musk adds body — slightly powdery, lightly clean, just enough seduction without going animalic. As it dries down further, there’s almost a cola-like sweetness to the woods. Not sugary, just that warm, slightly resinous sparkle sitting underneath the freshness. It’s got that definitive Italian late-90s DNA: classy, stylish, masculine without being aggressive. Retro, yes — but not “old man.” It feels like something that came out decades ago and somehow still works perfectly today. Performance is solid for an EDT. It’s not beast mode, and it’s not going to punch above its weight in projection. It doesn’t constantly radiate around you reminding you that you smell amazing. Instead, it sits at a moderate range — and when you catch it, you catch it. One of those “what smells that good?” moments before realizing it’s you. This is a modern classic from the late ’90s that still feels relevant. Olivier Cresp absolutely cooked with this one. At the usual $32–$40 range, it’s already a strong value. At tester prices? Ridiculous. I’d rebuy it just to have the full presentation. Fresh, sparkling, lightly spicy, creamy-woody, subtly musky, with that unmistakable Italiano vibe — if you’ve looked at the notes and thought about trying it, it’s worth your time. The familiarity doesn’t feel redundant. It feels timeless.

That’s an ethereal love at first smell. It’s the freshest light cola-based cocktail. Extremely refreshing, inoffensive, pure mood booster, which develops to a floral-musky hug. It’s hard to pull out any single note, because the composition blends so well. I actually can’t even describe it as a general perfume by top, middle, base, bla-bla-bla - only emotions. It’s either giving a vibe of metrosexual gentlemen from the 80s right after the sculpting of his sophisticated hairstyle, or a Marilyn Monroe-inspired middle-aged lady patting her little puppy in a club-like mansion that we only saw on MTV My ecstatic mood was a bit pushed back by the realization that it’s a rather feminine fragrance - there’s a lack of sharpness, pepper, smoke, leather, or any other bold masculine note. So I’d love to hear it every single day, but on my girl And the longevity... You know, that’s literally that one story when you fall in love like crazy, can’t think about anything else, and then... It’s just over. Without any last hug or bye. You even didn’t start to date, but already forgot about each other. And only some memories left, which reminds you time to time that you felt something. In other words, after one hour it’s just a subtle powdery flower. But considering the price, you can spray it every hour and it won’t bankrupt you By the way, the price. 35 euros for 125 ml? You must be kidding, because it’s a steal. Literally a luxury composition for the price of what? Davidoff Cool Water? The brand is freaking Robin Hood. That’s only the second Moschino fragrance I’ve tested, and both are 10/10 for me. Most underrated designer in the game? Want to test Toy Boy 2 so hard now PS: I just realized. After a couple of hours, I still couldn’t understand why it’s a men’s fragrance. Then it hit me: «uomo?» basically translates as «man?». The name itself questions «what is my target audience?». So I’m 100% sure it was mislabeled intentionally, making a very provocative social experiment of selling obviously feminine fragrance to masculine folks. I’m not drawing back my initial review - it can still be worn on a very elegant dandy and it will be appropriate , yet it’s definitely a fragrance for women. I’m now even more curious about the other Moschino fragrances, especially labeled as «for women». Maybe there I’d find some bold, 100% masculine compositions?

Recent bottle. Very nice even though the atomiser is all miser. It would be so easy to go nuts with that thing. The kumquat effect (more peel than flesh, to my nose) is recognisable as such if you're familiar with the fruit, and on my skin it pleasantly dominates the opening. Once that recedes, which predictably does not take more than a few minutes, you possibly have to like florals to enjoy this scent, as, at least to my nose, it packs a fair old punch of flower power. (Cyclamen? Is that the cyclamen? I could believe that that was the cyclamen.) There's also something that I experience as a kind of white, creamy clean, though not soapy, smell, which I think must be down to the musk, the (non-marine-smelling) ambergris and perhaps the labdanum. The combination of this and the cyclamen in particular is arguably borderline effeminate and it's the main reason I wouldn't recommend wearing this on hot summer days. It could become quite stridently back-of-the-throat perfumey. It would be doable but you'd have to know what you were doing with the sprayer. Also the fragrance seems to me to be quite understated initially, before the admittedly pleasant flowers blossom, and I can imagine spraying what might seem like just enough indoors, only to go outside and find myself at the heart of an offensive flowery cloud. But it's a nice kind of Mediterranean scent, comfortable to me but not generic in any bad way. Performance is probably average, sillage probably slightly stronger than longevity, but I don't really need much more of either in a light spring or summer scent that I do not intend to use as a weapon. Love.

Italian life and culture in a bottle, this is the best description of the fragrance. Fun, active life, freedom, ease, living simply, but with elegance and beauty. This is Italy, and this is the fragrance (uomo). The fragrance opens with a strong citrus scent, but it does not last long , with a sweet scent that continues throughout the fragrance, after that the scent turns into a soapy floral scent or a bright clean scent, and the dryness is with a creamy woody scent with a light musk and not exaggerated or heavy. So the perfume smells woody, creamy, musky, sweet, clean, pleasant, soft, safe, harmless, elegant, easy to wear, multi-use, with casual clothes. The perfume does not carry the trend of classic, sharp perfumes or dominated by oak moss, which are described as aged perfumes, on the contrary, it is a perfume that relaxes the mood and gives optimism and its smell invites happiness. My bottle is from 2014, and I find that the longevity of the fragrance is completely satisfactory for more than seven hours on the skin, its sillage and projection is medium, it is admired by women, the fragrance is not unisex and at the same time it is not very masculine, perfectly suitable for daily wear and office work. I don't know if young people between 20-30 years old like this scent or not. I use the perfume in the spring and autumn, and I find it suitable also in the summer, and I see a beautiful and pleasant morning smell.

After years this is STILL a staple in my collection !! I originally got this years ago admittedly when Jeremy Fragrance hyped this and the hype is well deserved as it’s one of the best cheapies I love this stuff as it has many layers to this making it harder to get tired of and it smells pleasant and I’d say this has cracked my top 10 most complimented even after wearing I’d say 300+ frags at this point This opens up very bright,citrusy and honestly slightly off putting as it’s mostly nice but has a slight bug spray vibe. A After this dries down that syntheticness dies down and the warmth from the cinnamon and woods come in complimenting that citrus making this musky,zesty,fresh but also really warm and cozy !! I’d also say this is a very refined,professional smell as well so it’s perfect for work !!! The cinnamon in the drydown is my favorite part !! I also love that this is similar to a lot of my favorite scents (Chanel Allure Homme, Burberry Touch,Jaipur Homme, and even Reflection Man) Performance-for me I get really good performance on this one !! It has nice projection for 2 hours and lasts on my skin 8-12 hours Overall rating -8.5 out of 10 !! An amazing scent that gets compliments,performs well and has an amazing price tag !! Only gets points taken away as it’s a favorite of mine but it’s not quite in my personal top 5 or even 10

Firstly, I've heard complaints about the longevity and sillage, but these factors are both top notch upon my skin with various people tossing the "What's that smell?" or "One of you smells amazing..." in my scent bubble, which is around 6 ft declining over 6hrs in my mind's eye approximation. A warm, and natural scent. A happy teddy-bear boyfriend smell. I am personally surprised the Love rating isn't full. Smells like the visual of an ambery field of sunflowers delicately kissed by the sun. It amplifies a boyish, candid and easygoing charm. Somewhat androgynous, surely not something I'd imagine on the man of the hour as much as the wallflower boy. The scent itself easily turns heads; it is exceptionally unique as the scent profile suggests, and not divisively so. Some striking versatility; it is lovely all round. It shines in the soft morning springs and falls, but with a few nuts and bolts you can pull this off any time of year. Soothing and calming and kind and fuzzy-fizzy (the latter to mention, a little soda-ish but a unique delicious snuggly kind!). It is very nice, and you'll smell it on you for a good long while. It's in this... oddly pleasant space between sweet and fresh that makes it super versatile.

Super gentlemanly, Slighy powdery Lemon/ Italian/herbal/woody/musky/earthy concoction for gentlman 25 and up Id say. Also, while I happen to really appreciate aldehydes in my fragrances, and like it when the note stands out, the aldehydes are NOT prominent in this dna which is probably a good thing bc that note does seem to cause a lot of division as most tolks attribute Aldehydes to making perfume smell "Too old School", although I dissagree. I also LOOOVE how SUUUPER Earthy this fragrance gets in tbe far dry-down ehere it also stays powdery and wonder if its just me sensing that earthiness bc I see no mention of it here or anywhere else for that matter. Anyhow, Moschino Uomo? Smells really great, super gentlemanly and unique and after owning it for a few weeks I can say that the performance has improved a bit ESPECIALLY when worn on clothes where it'll last into the following day, but I do recomend spritzing atleast 2 times on the same spot to get that great longevity. Even on skin Im now getting a good 5 to 6 hours turning into nice, noticable skin-scent at around hour 4. A great/modern classic and a 7.5 outta 10 imo, REALLY Nicely done Moschino!!.

MY NEW SIGNATURE SCENT! Smells AMAZING! This fragrance is literally called a Woody Floral Musk and that is exactly what it smells like. It starts off with a nice soapy/clean unique citrus ... I assume it's kumquat along with a muted lemon-ish smell. Within just a few minutes or so you get a beautiful floral ... but it's not a feminine floral ... more unisex or masculine leaning dirty/musky floral. It pretty much stays this way but with a little more woody notes in the drydown which ends up pretty much replacing any citrus. I do not pick up on any cinnamon although it's listed. I would not consider this a spicy fragrance at all. So ... if you like a woody FLORAL scent with a soapy musky profile ... for the price ... it's a phenomenal buy for your collection. I would pretty much say that if you like Azarro chrome, Eternity or Pleasures for Men by Estee Lauder, then you will like it since it shares some similar DNA. Oh ... it's a solid "A" fragrance, a "B" for longevity but at best, a "C" for its atomizer. (Since writing this, I ordered another bottle and tucked it away in a bottom drawer ... it's that good.)

Moschino Uomo is a masterpiece by Olivier Cresp that I discovered about 7 years ago. I think it was a YouTube video by Jeremy Fragrance that put me on this trail—a fresh, cheap, summery scent that’s all about musk. The trick with this fragrance is that you really have to apply it generously. With 12–16 sprays—spread across your wrists, underarms, neck, chest, and throat—you’ll actually smell it for 12–18 hours, and you can easily fill any room with this wonderful scent. For about 20–25 euros, you can buy a 125ml bottle, so applying it generously doesn’t break the bank. I have a nice perfume collection with several dozen fragrances, both designer and niche, but this is one of the two fragrances that elicit a spontaneous positive reaction from my wife. Every time I wear Moschino Uomo and she comes home from her morning workout at the gym, she says, “It smells so good in here.” The other fragrance she’s so crazy about is Sospiro Basso. I don’t really see a connection, except that they’re both Italian and, above all, masculine scents??? Maybe my wife just loves Italian men??

I can definitely see the Burberry Touch comparison but I wouldn't say they were the same at all, or would even necessarily appeal equally to someone. Whereas Touch has a sort of clear, sharp, focused nature (some might say "synthetic" but they're both synthetic in the literal sense), Uomo? is a bit sweeter, with more rounded edges, and a slightly more "naturalistic" and muddled quality. I like Uomo? but Touch is one of my faves. Edit: After some more wearings, I stand by my description of how this compares to Touch, but Uomo? grew on me really quickly. It's a very cozy, clean, laundry musk kind of smell that's very appealing. It's interesting that some reviews I've seen on YouTube describe this as very masculine because (1) I don't think it is, it reads as very unisex to me and (2) I don't think it was meant to be super masculine (hence "Uomo?" instead of "Uomo").

I like this Uomo for the reasons alot of guys are trashing it. It has a modest sillage for my cigar shop. Guys & ladies don't want to smell edp's or club scents like Versace Eros, while they smoke cigars. Strong perfume in a cigar shop is etiquette 101. When guys come into the lounge with a cloying aquatic, it punches right through the cigars and whiskey and says, "I Am Here!" To be honest, longevity is not bad for this EDT, I get 4-6+ hours and I am in my own little cloud---this is so light and mellow, you all may be going noseblind. This also is a bit too powdery, rich and warm(nauseating) for hotter temps. For cooler days though, a fairly citrusy, powdery, musky, and alluring barbershop---It compliments my cigars well and is refreshing(to me) all evening. Reminds me of Burberry brit, just less musky.

I originally bought this because it was compared to Burberry Touch, which I really like, and was quite cheap (under $30 on discounters for a 4.2 oz. bottle). Well, it did not end up smelling too much like Touch to me, although I can see some connection between the two (orange citrus with musk, cedar and wormwood/artemesia to give some "pop"), but I did end up really enjoying it. Although it took a couple wears for me to really vibe with it, I'm glad I gave this a chance. Like all my favorites, I like to smell from my forearm every so often for the sheer joy of it. Longevity and projection seem to be solidly moderate. An excellent choice for spring and summer days or nights, it has some kind of special brightness that lifts my mood and makes me feel suave and playful. Highly recommended.

I've had this on and off since it came out in the 90's. Currently have a bottle which is around 4 years old and still going strong. To this day it is my most complimented fragrance (unsolicited at least). Realistically that's not that many as most people know, but its saying something when I have some alleged compliment magnets in my collection. It's a type of citrus that you don't smell often, and the top notes do seem to hang around for the whole life of the application, which is realistically 4-5 hours with 5 sprays. The atomiser is shit and you don't know whether you'll get a mist or a jet, and that has never changed on the 3 or 4 bottles I've had. For £21 for 125ml most of the time, this is ridiculously good value. I will always try to have a bottle of this hanging around.

I wanted to give it a try since I heard comparisons with Burberry Touch - and yeah - the drydown is quite similar but the DNA of this one is a bit more sweeter and aromatic. It's soapy and VERY versatile, you could easily get away with wearing this all seasons and all ages. Maybe more during the day as it's on the lighter end and the spiciness won't carry it well in the cold The value is also pretty nuts, 125ml for 23 GBP at discounters??? F*ck yes. Lasts a reasonable amount of time and you get a really nice high-end soapy smell. It's a good dumb reach and I've recently found myself gravitating towards it more than my other fragrances since it's an all-round comforting and clean smelling fragrance. That cedar and musk at the end really sells it for me. Excellent juice 👌

Had to give another opinion about this fragrance after wearing it again. Fresh, woody and sweet fragrance that is somewhat unique and it should be criminal on how affordable this fragrance is today. The woods in this fragrance are done very well given the price I paid with just the right amount of sweetness and powderines in the dry down which is just the way I remember it smelling back in 1998 when I had this fragrance. Im aware of reformulations but I'm very satisfied with the current scent profile I have today and the sillage and longevity are decent enough for me. Mr. Cresp did his thing with this one so if you want a decent fragrance that won't break the bank then I strongly suggest you grab yourself a bottle of Moschino UOMO?🔥🔥🔥 10/10

I absolutely love it. Fresh but not sharp, and also has some deepness because of the musk. I think this would be suitable for all kinds of weather and situations, except maybe harsh cold (it's too light for that) and stifling heat (too flowery and musky for that). But for everything in between this, I think, is a great choice. And you really can't go wrong for this price either. I agree with the people qualifying it as playful and charming. That it is, especially charming. It's manly but not in a bold, hypermasculine way, but in a charming, playful way. Others qualify it as a dad scent. I don't agree with that at all, or you must think that everything that's slightly musky is for older guys. I love wearing it and I'm in my 20s.

I bought it in the beginning of my journey with fragrances. Someone suggested me it as a good starter. And I fell in love! It's sweet, but not overwhelmingly. A mix of flowers and sweet fruits. Some people might say it's unisex. My girlfriend claims it a bit feminine. I think it is, but I like it that way. A bit sassy fragrance, with those floral notes, that make it classy and funky at the same time. It's a great all-rounder. Doesn't really matter if it's for dinner or the office. It's joyful, not overbearing, but set you in a good mood. And the best part is the price: it's dirt cheap, considering how good it is. It's very unique, I have never seen anything similar, at least in mainstream perfumes. I highly recommend it!

This is a trip back to my youth and I really like it as much as I liked it then. Or more. There's nothing that I don't like in this scent. Fresh, clean, musky, powdery, aromatic and sophisticated. That's everything I want from my perfumes. The opening reminds me of Earl Grey tea and it's refreshing without being too citrusy. I bought the first bottle about in year 2000 and the second one arrived today. The only thing I regret is why on earth I waited 25ish years to buy it again. This is so good and maybe even better now when I'm 39 and understand a little bit more about fragrances than I did back then. And I have to say that I really like the bottle. This is a bargain and this is definitely a keeper from now on.

They don't make em like this anymore. I believe 1990s must be the apex for fresh and classy masculines. Easy a 9/10 scent for me. Reminds me of Herrera for Men, but this is fruitier and a hair less smoky, if memory serves me correct. Real fresh frags will never be a performance beast. So cannot fault it for that really like others in this comment section has done anyway. The performance on me was solid - for the fruity light concept that it is. Summery but versatile. Listen it is still around guys, I just tried it out for the first time this weekend, in a tax free store on a Baltic cruise ship. And I see it online for 25 bucks.

Ticking off another Oliver Cresp classic; I could wear one a day and still have years to go it seems. Spicy, aldehydic kumquat with a slight woody undercurrent in the open drifts into a beautiful light floral mix backed by sage and likely cinnamon. A powdery, almost soapy clean linen, musky base then effortlessly presents itself supported by an airy warm cedar. It's a light and pleasant fragrance that I think is very lovely and wearable for just about anyone from early Spring through late Fall. It reminds me of wearing paper thin airy shirt atop a swim trunks while jogging on a deserted beach on a lazy Sunday morning.
