I really love Ferrari Uomo. I bought it fairly recently and it does not project as much as its Italian Stallion image might suggest; in fact, this is a discreet and elegant scent and masculine as can be. Yes, there is a reference to Fahrenheit--that famous petrol note that Dior used works perfectly with the luxury Italian racing car aesthetic--but this is no Fahrenheit wannabe. Ferrari Uomo has Italian citrus in its opening (Sicilian Lemon and Calabrian Bergamot) with an herbal juniper note. The heart is all about the leather and wood of a luxury automobile and the base notes are dominated by Tonka and Patchouli. This feels amazingly restrained; it is a "lean into" fragrance that combines classic men's perfumery notes like lemon and leather with petrol and gourmand Tonka. The packaging is wonderful as well and completely lives up to the luxury brand's promise.
There seems to be considerable batch variation if you read the reviews.
I am more on the negative side.
Opens slightly citrusy and woodsy and dries down quickly to woodsy and earthy.
Nice enough. A restrained masculine cologne but projection is very weak. More of a skin scent. If you fall on hard times this is a cheap safe office fragrance.
Fragrance: 2.75/10
Projection: 2/10
Longevity: 3/10
As others have noted, it is a little like a toned down version of Fahrenheit. Pretty good longevity and projection. However, has the ability to overwhelm and make you sick of it.
Never less, a reasonable cologne for the price. I would rate it a 6.5 out of 10.
This was a pleasant discovery! Yes this is a less harsh Dior Fahrenheit, very leathery petroleum that works in a linear fashion. A perfect fragrance for Ferrari. High quality at a lower price point. Performance could be better but I still highly recommend.
Sexy, clean and masculine. Lots of Fahrenheit in this but softer and more subtle. Very good for the price but doesn't project as much as I would like. Also, longevity is an issue, so use reckless abandon when spraying.
