  Lavender, honey, and patchouli. That’s how I’d define the backbone of this fragrance, with a longevity and sillage reminiscent of perfumes from the late 70s and early 80s. These have their predecessors in Givenchy Gentleman from 1974, followed by this Trussardi from 1983, then Giorgio for Men from Giorgio Beverly Hills in 1984, Boss No. 1 in 1985, and Tenere from Paco Rabanne in 1988. Longevity over 12 hours, heavy sillage. What I felt most was its lavender, its honey, its flowers, the patchouli, the leather, and the tonka bean. Clearly for mature tastes. If you want a more updated version, perhaps you should try the Trussardi Uomo from 2011, reviewed in this forum.

  This is the authentic original Trussardi Uomo, nothing to do with that 2011 version which is just water. Sincerely, they let us get ripped off by pretty faces and tough guys who relaunch fragrances from the same house that have nothing to do with the original. The case of the so-called Trussardi Uomo from 2011, which has nothing to do with the original, which is very good and the one we have in hand today, is that it is very bad.

  @ Burnett Here is the authentic Trussardi Uomo that is already discontinued. The other one you like is a completely different fragrance that they try to sell off as if it were this one or its reformulation, but they have nothing to do with each other. As Priethcallas correctly states, the original was dense, while the new version is fresh for summer.

  The reformulated Trussardi Uomo 2016 smells terrible; it’s a total disappointment.

  You can’t live off the past, unfortunately, which is why today we define the current rather than the vintage. This product was reformulated and is no longer the same; it’s something else entirely for those who truly understand and love the brand, feeling like a laxative every 8 hours. I agree with the majority who know better: many fragrances should be labeled with a harsher tone regarding these infamous reformulations and not considered ‘current,’ as they are different products. If you want a Mercedes model XYZ, you want that, not a Mercedes JKL that looks similar but drives slower, is more economical, lacks power, understeers in dangerous maneuvers, and doesn’t hold speed above 150 km/h. These are other reformulations that Maison Benz makes to cut costs and dilute the product, eventually pulling it from the market or, worse, targeting buyers who purchase ‘brands’ rather than ‘contents’… I hope this helps. To the reformulated little finger below: ‘…To the lions…’ the Romans would say.

  Trussardi decided to discontinue its flagship fragrance and create a new one, Trussardi Uomo 2011. It’s worth saying that the latter has nothing to do with the former: it’s a spiced freshie with some grace that doesn’t stand out among the thousands in the genre. You can’t say the same about the original (bottle with crocodile skin texture), which turns out to be unique. Trussardi Uomo is one of the best leather perfumes I’ve ever tried. It has that spark of ingenuity and being different that is hard to find. Its opening, herbal, fresh, spicy, and calm, ends up being treacherous, as after a while it unleashes a resounding and greedy black leather, magnificent glove leather that isn’t heavy, rather addictive, oily, photographic. Smelling with attention, you detect the notes of an 80s powerhouse: patchouli, oakmoss, geranium, and animal nuances, working together to configure that final image of dark leather like coal. Despite what is believed, the trail isn’t anything extraordinary (and it confirms to me that nowadays perfumes project more than back then), but the longevity is majestic: Trussardi Uomo will stick to your skin until you decide to shower. I find a certain relationship with Gucci Guilty Absolute for men: it’s not as stylized, but it shares that relaxed yet uncompromising interpretation of leather. I think Trussardi Uomo could please many who, for all the right reasons, have gotten into Gucci perfume.

  The best leather perfume I’ve ever tried. It lasts all day on the skin and a week on clothes. Very masculine, not for the Le Male or Joop crowd. It’s for more mature people who know what they want (turncoats and indecisives), abstain because TRUSSARDI UOMO is very animalic, with a real leather smell, this was a perfume. A true lion is inside… the bottle is one of the most beautiful seen, sublime, perfect, unique. More fine and elegant they couldn’t have done it. The best of TRUSSARDI. I’m a collector and sell vintage pieces. I’ve been looking for this treasure for years… If anyone has it and it’s from Bs As Argentina, send a private message, thanks.

  Review based on the July 2012 version. It seems the 1983 TRUSSARDI UOMO was from the leather family. This 2011 one includes leather in the notes but it’s barely detectable. Its placement in the Aromatic family seems appropriate. As a clue to the change, we moved from a bottle with explicit leather pads to a shiny black, polished, and lustrous one, like the bodywork of luxury cars that Trussardi loves so much and has caused family tragedies for. The house owes its beginnings to Dante Trussardi, who founded a luxury glove factory in Bergamo in 1910 for the English Royal House. A tragic Italian opera nonsense hangs over the family: Dante died prematurely in a hunting accident. His grandson Nicola inherited and extended production to other leather goods. Nicola has two sons and two daughters. On the road between Bergamo and Milan, Nicola died in a car accident in 1999, followed by his son Francesco in 2003. The current heirs are brothers Tomaso and Gaia. TRUSSARDI UOMO has a galbanum opening. Galbanum is a plant resin that hardens to form the resin. Its aroma travels through fresh green cut grass, turpentine-like pine greens, dry balsamic resins, and damp forest greens of ancient trees. Clary sage is the key. Clary sage adds herbaceous, camphoraceous, and aromatic tones, turning the green into something potent, deep, dark, balsamic, and restorative. A healing and medicinal green. The subsequent notes deepen these almost scorched tones. Bergamot and lemon don’t add citrus but with their acidic juices highlight the greens that seem mentholated and oxygenating. Those scorched brushstrokes might come from the conjunction of moss with geranium and the green accord. I don’t detect other declared notes like patchouli or violet. In the dry-down, a faint distant leather is felt that doesn’t make it leathery nor subtracts that constant greenery. I don’t know the primitive version, but this 2011 one is pleasant, especially for lovers of alpine, mentholated, balsamic, expectorant, and oxygenating scents. The trail is sufficient and longevity is acceptable. It’s perfect for work meetings and conversations. Also for summer temperatures and outdoor dinners. It’s a serious, disciplined, rigorous, and clean perfume.

  Powerful and virile aroma, no complexes. A lush blend of flowers, spices, moss, leather, patchouli, smoke, and wood, all very masculine, for men who wear gold chains and possess an animalistic power of seduction. Trussardi Uomo smells like a discontinued 80s man, hot-blooded, well-built, wearing designer sunglasses looking for female company. It requires olfactory experience and maturity to enjoy, like tasting a good red wine. It’s potent, sensual, suggestive, and never goes unnoticed. The opening is exciting, like a classical symphony with a thousand-watt audio system. If a perfume acts as an aphrodisiac, this is it. It symbolizes overflowing but kind and warm masculinity, evoking vacations from those years, sun and sex on the beach or in the car, when your nighttime conquest whispered to find a more discreet spot. Like a partner to invest in a business, you need a man who can handle it, then the combination is irresistible. A grand perfumery work of art with longevity nothing like the current 2011 version.

  A courtesy from my friend @jerry drake, an expert on Italian fragrances. Before, Uomo wasn’t taken lightly. This Trussardi Uomo has nothing to do with the 2011 version; it’s like seeing Humphrey Bogart in The Maltese Falcon and then Edward Norton in Fight Club. One is hard and masculine without pretension, the other tries to be so and ends up being a pastiche. Bogart dressed finely and had Lauren Bacall, a wild woman who would eat most men alive today. That means it’s a perfume from before: hard, potent, masculine, protective, elegant, and refined. For those not used to vintage, don’t stay on the opening, which is loud and very similar to the original 1974 Givenchy Gentleman, not the current watered-down version. They share a lot, though with nuances. Concentrated aldehydes, moss, and aromatic herbs. In Trussardi, the opening lingers longer. While in Gentleman honey combines with patchouli, here honey blends with leather. Both remind me a lot of each other, but I lean toward Gentleman for its refined patchouli. If you like leather, this is probably the highest-quality note, no wonder Trussardi worked with luxury leather. I stick with Gentleman, but all my respect to this great one. Au revoir!

  Resplendent aldehydes of atmospheric leather, spurred and sustained by an animalic note. The result is resolved and exquisite. My bottle is the T-shaped can, not the one with the coat of arms.

  I’m lucky to have a bottle of Trussardi Uomo from 1985, very refined, Italian leather, very manly with a vintage touch and the strength of a bull. I don’t know what it’s like now, but the black plastic backing is a case that holds the transparent bottle where you can see the level. A delightful Italian treat to keep and enjoy for many years.

  Review of a 90s splash bottle, maybe 80s, with that black bottle and plastic cap with leather grooves. I decanted it to spray it. It has an aldehydic opening that highlights the leather, which is the core. For me, it’s intoxicating, not sweet, with hints of hay and leather drenched in caraway. That opening is gorgeous: well-tanned, perfumed leather with soft floral and animal notes, giving warmth and quality. A soapy leather. After the opening, it settles on the skin showing a clove-honey combo, with the spice of the clove and the density of the honey. Here it’s less prominent, staying closer to the skin. In the dry down, I smell slight cinnamon and rose. As it dries, leather and honey take the lead with oakmoss. Very masculine, from another era, the 80s, elegant and seductive at close range. Not very long-lasting or projecting, but the scent is addictive. Better for cold and intermediate seasons, at night. A beautiful leather, one of the finest I know.

  I’m reviewing a bottle of splash from last century, at least from the 90s, maybe the 80s. The kind that are black with a plastic cap featuring the characteristic ribbed leather-style drawing. I decanted it beforehand to spray it. It has an aldehydic opening that makes the leather more prominent, which is the heart of this fragrance. For me, it’s intoxicating; without being sweet or cloying, it has hints of that, and the leather is completely flooded with the scent of leather, which I love, or perhaps I’m just fixated on it. That opening is beautiful; I adore it. It’s not a harsh leather, but a well-tanned, perfumed one with floral and animalic notes, plus some spicy ones, all very soft and well-modulated, giving a sensation of warmth and quality. I’d say it’s a soapy leather. Once the initial phase passes, the fragrance settles on the skin, and along with the leather, it shows off that floral-animal accord more, which to me is a carnation-honey combo, taking the spiciness of the carnation and the density and very slight sweetness of the honey. At this mid-stage, it’s not a fragrance that stands out as much anymore, but has dropped much closer to the skin. In this dry-down phase, I also faintly detect cinnamon and rose. In its dry-down, leather and honey become the main protagonists, with oakmoss also present. Although it’s much closer to the skin now, it feels very masculine and from another era, even more so from the 80s, and for that same circumstance of not being scandalous, it’s elegant and also seductive at close range. It’s not a very long-lasting or very projecting perfume, but its scent is absolutely addictive, at least for me. More for cold and intermediate seasons. I use it more at night than during the day. A beautiful leather, one of the most beautiful I know.

  Reading all these reviews makes no sense. I tried it on my skin and it’s the worst thing I’ve ever sprayed: totally synthetic and soapy. I can’t find a trace of what you guys are talking about; the leather and lavender are completely missing. 0/10.

  Italian 80s scent, like a sophisticated man marking territory like an African lion. The current 2024 version is a letdown: it smells like water that evaporates in 10 seconds, boring, cloying, and soulless. It lasts 5-6 hours on skin but projects nothing; it’s a honeyed aroma trying to be ‘Motorhead’ but ending up as ‘Europe’, with no kick. There’s no leather. Ideal for autumn-spring on refined guys over 40. In summer it’s heavy, in winter it’s weak. If you like classic, old-school, or retro scents without being dated, and you can grab it for 30-40 euros, give it a shot. It smells good, is elegant, and doesn’t offend. Perfect for the office in shoulder seasons if you’re not an obsessive collector trying to lecture everyone on social media. The rest of us can just enjoy life without the drama.
