Tempore Uomo (1999)
by Laura Biagiotti

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.

A strange but wonderful combination of mostly woody and spicy notes, with some fruits and nuts thrown in for good measure.
The cypress in the top note drives the fruit straight into the juniper and spice of the heart note, so it doesn't fully come off as a fruit-heavy mix.
It dries down to an unexpectedly floral-oriental note; quite a nice ride, but one with only moderate sillage. The effect is romantic and enveloping. It feels good to wear it.

If you don't pay attention, you definitely miss all the notes described...naw, actually it is so complex that you can't tell top nor bottom from this scent. It's warm and spicy like her earlier creation, Venezia, though it has very powdery notes and less sharp on the spice. The scent seems to weave itself in slow pulses of powdered warmth and sweetness. It doesn't project much, although I may also suspect that the notes are so densely packed that one might easily be suffering from olfactory fatigue from this one, hence one might be tricked from its true longevity. The scent artistry could be markedly better if contrasting notes were added to give it better texture. Overall, it's still a pleasing scent.
