Luciano Soprani Uomo (2003)
by Luciano Soprani

It smells similar to Black by Kenneth Cole, with its citrusy top ... rather than an incense heart, this one has a spicy middle, and realtive to its base, rather than being only musk, it adds some wood and vanilla ... longevity and projection is average ... nothing special ...

To my nose Luciano Soprani Uomo is the same style citrus scent as Emporio Armani White - where White is the somewhat richer scent, and Soprani lasts a bit longer.

For a while I wasn't overly fond of either of these two, as I prefer stronger more pronounced citrus scents in summer. But they've both made a bit of a comeback for me. Both are very good for a warm day when one wants a scent to be somewhat more subtle rather than particularly loud.

With reference to one of the comments below, the box my Luciano Soprani Uomo EDT came in is black, and there is no mention or picture of the soccer player Roberto Baggio on it.

At first, I thought that Luciano Soprani Uomo - clone of Lobogal... but when I learned that Soprani Uomo was created in 2003 - I realized that it was Lobogal - clone of Soprani... Well, not bad!

We are talking about the one that has a (soccer player) Roberto Baggio in cover of the box..? He is also a “face” of this scent in general. Released in 2003.

Extremely slick woody scent; it is very round and smooth without any edge. Little crispy.

Quite subtle and very soft blend of fresh woods and amber with hint distant hint of spicy florals. Light transparent musk wraps this unordinary and boring scent together.


Personally speaking I find this totally trivial. There are simply put thousands of better fragrances available.

Smells like a lot of those sports fragrances. I don't think this wanted to be a sporty fragrance. I believe I have a smaple of the reformulation because I smell the marigold in this. I have fond memories of marigold. I've always enjoyed their slightly stank aroma. My grandmother always said this, "If you put marigolds by my grave, I will come haunt you!" Well, sorry grandma but I like them. However the marigold is very subtle and is soothed by the spicy fruity aromas that swell all around. I like this and seems very hard to find.

As Naed mentioned, this one has been reformulated and the new notes lineup goes like this:
top: bergamot, lemon, apple, pineapple, nutmeg, cinnamon, cloves, white pepper, bright green notes.
middle: lavender, marigold, jasmine, orange blossom,violet, lily.
base: cedar, ebony, vetyver, amber and musk.
This new one is as fresh and energetic as they come, without a hint of the flowers mentioned before, and mantaining a big deal of the masculine aura that the original formula once had.
This new formula is adapted t the times,becoming less of an 80's powerhouse to a more fruity and fresh opening,and it delivers an equilibrated blend of fresh notes from top to bottom. The longevity is so-so and the sillage is all right, all in all, not a truly memorable fragrance, but not a bad one at all.
