Italiano Nero Uomo

The Armaf Italiano Nero Uomo Review

When a fragrance achieves the kind of ubiquity that Italiano Nero Uomo has, cynicism is the easy response. The harder — and more honest — question is: why? What is it about this EDT from Armaf that has made it a fixture in so many wardrobes across continents? Released in 2017, Italiano Nero Uomo built its following on Citrus, Aromatic, Warm Spicy, Woody, Fougere, and years on, it has not lost a step.

A warm and inviting aromatic-spicy blend that offers a sophisticated feel without the hefty price tag.

How Italiano Nero Uomo Smells: Notes & Development

Italiano Nero Uomo opens with Bergamot, Lemon and Orange Blossom — the first impression as it hits the skin. Once that burns off, usually inside the first half hour, the heart turns to Nutmeg, Rosemary and Lavender. What lingers on skin and clothing hours later is the base: Tonka Bean, Amber and Cedar.

Strip it back to the bones and the profile reads Citrus, Aromatic, Warm Spicy, Woody, Fougere — easy to place and easy to wear.
