Tempore Uomo (1999)
by Laura Biagiotti

Sugar dusted woods surrounded by grandma's flower garden.
The opening suggests some masculinity, but as time trickles, can't help but notice how wonderful this scent will deliver on a classy mature woman.
Nothing tempting here for me. Too feminine for my taste. I will gladly buy it for my aunt who likes to boss people around and always shows up in a terrific outfit on opera night.
As a masculine offering I have to give it a neutral rating, but if you decide to surprise your mom, she may love it.

I bought this fragrance when it first came on the market and I still love it. It is warm and spicy, and its signature accord is like carnation mixed with petrol. The after shave is quite light while the EdT is heavy and more complex. This is one of those scents that mark the 1990s as a very distinctive era.

almost more notes than antidote(25 to 20), but also not a big head turner. very subtle flowery light inoffensive bore of a scent. i get the spicy middle notes but they are overtaken by the flowery top notes. base notes are undetectable or this would be an ok scent.it's like a bvlgari light.

I smell a lot of fruited woods, extremely light powdery notes and a ambered patchouli base. Very complex and everyone seems to get different impressions. Mine was, "huh, that's interesting."

Very, VERY unique fragrance in a beautiful bottle. Fresh, floral fragrance with spice and wood accents. Smells actually very weird to my nose, and it`s very hard to compare to anything else.

Tempore Uomo smells alot like a mix between salicylate and sweet carnation. It`s oddly medicinal smelling. Very sweet too, especially after few hours of application. (it really turns sweeter and sweeter during the time)

Don`s stare at that pyramid above, I dare to say it doesn`t give you the slightest idea how it actually smells like.

I believe this can easily smell too feminine to some. It`s not particularly masculine in any ways. Could be worn by women too, especially considering the fact that this is waaaay better than Tempore Donna.

BTW, Tempore Uomo is discontinued, but still widely available.

I love this scent from Biagiatti. It's another winner. I smell so much going on all at once but I love it and the drydown is very nice. I have only smelled this and Roma but can't wait to try other fragrances by this Biagiatti.
