Roberto Cavalli Uomo Deep Desire

This is one of the most underrated designer perfumes – my wife loves a lot of the ladies fragrances and that’s perfectly fine because most of them are dead cheap, myself I have Uomo for quite some years which I really love, but Deep Desire is even better, warm spicy woody fragrance extremely long lasting with a decent silage, – unfortunately this one has already been discontinued, now you can still buy it relatively cheap but once the stock will dry down this will only be available at Ebay at higher prices

It is good, deep and underrated. For the lower price definitely you get more in comparison with other brands. Unisex- yes, winter - yes. Type of fragrance without leather that you use when you wear something leathery or wool... or natural. It starts with cedary-pepepy-citrus-mix and later the saffron -tuberose - mix comes in the game. It ends with sweet wood... while from time to time you can smell the dna ot the Cavalli uomo (black bottle). It is a winner!

This is very like Uomo by Cavalli. Deep Desire is slightly less sweet and slightly woodier. A good performance comparable to Uomo. Pity that there isn't a stronger cinnamon note though. I was expecting a different smell. If I had to choose, Uomo is a touch nicer A gorgeous perfume by Cavalli however. I love it.

Allright, so first of all the note breakdown listed on Fragrantica is completely off. It's rather shameful to see this. Having witnessed this not only here, but multiple times with other fragrances by now. It really makes you think and realise how a lot of frags listed on here might actually be composed of other notes then listed. Also hilarious how people use them in their imagination to 'disect' and mention these notes while they are not even used realistically in the composition lol! Anyway with that out of the way, these are the offical notes for this one: Top: Cardamom & Black violet Mid: Cedar & Patchouli Base: Honey & Tonka This one is a solid flanker within the Uomo line up which I adore in general. I mentioned this multiple times, it's one of the most underrated designer lines out there hands down. Deep Desire carries the backbone of the original cause of that black violet note, but definitely does it's own thing. In comparison with the OG, It's more creamy, slightly sweeter and a bit more cozy smelling. This oozes fall and especially winter weather wearing and is ideal for mostly nocturnal occasions. Best scenario's to wear it would mostly be in a romantic setting. Performance is outstanding, aside from the golden anniversary edition, this one performs the best. Longevity was 10hrs on my skin and could smell it on my jacket a week after still. There is just one minor thing that did not let me love this one and that's that from the mid till the drydown, it develops a peachy/coconut type of aroma that I did not like and got me tired of it. Maybe it's that added cardamom mixing with the rest and/or the re-aligning of the notes from the top till the base that makes it come off that way, but you either love it or don't. As much as I recognized how solid this scent is, because of that one aspect, this one did not cut it for me, although barely. Fortunately, recently I discovered Burberry Brit Rhythm For Him Intense. Immediately when I smelled that one I was instantly amazed by how good it was, but it also reminded me so badly of a fragrance I experienced before. Then I realized it was Roberto Cavalli Uomo Deep Desire. The only difference is that peachy/coconut vibe I got here is completely absent in there, which made it smell like an ideal take on this scentprofile for me. Deep Desire also reminds me a little bit of Valentino Donna Noir Absolu in certain ways and carries a slight vibe, just a slight of Spicebomb Extreme. All in all, Cavalli nailed it with this one even though it did not make it to my personal collection, I'm pretty sure a lot of other folks who would try this, would love it or at the very least like it. The value for money is insane, get this fast if interested, cause the stock is drying up! Rating: 7.7/10

Nice cheap fragrance. I got it for £18. All UOMO are nice. My ranking is La Notte, Deep Desire, Uomo and Silver Essence. Is it unisex? No. At least not for me. I would rather say original UOMO is more unisex. Scent wise it's smooth, warm wood with some sweetness from floral notes. Opening is the worst in my opinion. Citrus simply doesn't suit in here. Then it's getting definitely warm and woody. Saffron with tuberose gives really smooth and soft feeling and cinnamon brings the warmth and cosiness. The last stage is wood. Even thou there is not in the note I can pick up sandalwood. Experience wise I can see it like drinking spiced tea (with cinnamon and orange) sitting in front of a fireplace with few logs sparkling up, rolled in cashmere blanket. What's weird is people complain that this is nothing groundbreaking. Well off course it's not. Either Y from YLS is nothing new. Then we have tons of fragrances with amber, vanilla, tonka, carmel etc. sweeties where everyone are just amazed and in heaven, just because they came from bug names and designers. For the money you can get really nice, warm scent and that is definitely worthwhile the price.
