It has mandarin, green tomato, iris, sage, patchouli, and leather. It doesn’t sound like the classic ‘Acqua’ lines or smell aquatic at all. The opening is citrusy and powdery with a green touch (the tomatoes) and reminds me quite a bit of Dior Homme Eau, with Dior being infinitely better. It fails on longevity and sillage: it doesn’t reach two hours with a practically non-existent trail. In my opinion, it’s not worth it; it’s a pleasant scent but nothing unseen before. If you’re looking for something similar but better, go for Dior Homme Eau.
It has mandarin, green tomato, iris, sage, patchouli, and leather. It doesn’t smell like the classic ‘Acqua’ lines or have any aquatic vibe. The opening is citrusy and powdery with a green touch (the tomatoes) and reminds me quite a bit of Dior Homme Eau, though Dior is infinitely better. Here’s where it fails: the longevity and sillage are non-existent; it doesn’t even reach two hours and leaves almost no trace. In my opinion, it’s not worth it; it’s a pleasant scent but nothing new. If you’re looking for something similar but better, go for Dior Homme Eau.
Tested it yesterday. At first, it sounds like Prada L’Homme: that mix of iris, neroli, and amber with a floral acidity that here comes through as tomato leaf, iris, mandarin, and suede. As it dries down, it smells undefined: at times it’s a refreshing hazelnut with flowers, like a low-calorie frozen praline. I don’t know if it’s a floral woody musk with edible touches or an ambroxan that ends up being a haze where all you smell is a watery Axe deodorant. I hate to say it, but it’s necessary: it costs €60 and lasts only 45 minutes with no sillage. I was gifted a rollerball yesterday; I applied it at 12:30, went to bed at 2, and when I smelled my wrist this morning, it smelled like nothing. If you don’t want to smell like a Marian apparition with a cloud of lilies, go for Eau de Lancaster, CK Be, Mugler, CK One, Arden, Courrèges, Gallet, or Sisley. This is a scam.
Not a bad fragrance! Its notes give it a green-floral character. It’s different from the light or existing ‘fresh’ versions. I’m wearing it right now and on my skin it highlights a powdery iris with a leather touch that I love; it gives it body and elegance. Accompanied by a green aura, perhaps from the tomato plant (I don’t smell tomato, but I do smell the plant). I applied it 5 hours ago and I still perceive it; the fixative is good. That said, moderate sillage, like all contemporary Valentino perfumes. I admit that since the Valentina era, I’ve liked their fragrances, both for women and men: they aren’t opulent or complex, but they’re very wearable and exude elegance. Plus, their bottles are exquisite. I see the Uomo and its flankers as different from the Dior Homme line: these have better sillage, but their sweetness is coumarin-based, not vanilla. In the Uomo, the sweetness is softer, similar to praliné with hazelnuts (a distinct and soft gourmand touch). Good fragrance, wearable in any situation and makes you feel good. Plus, it’s different from existing citrus-aquatic options.

Good fragrance, wearable anywhere, and makes you feel good.
Valentino Uomo Acqua can be deceiving by its name; I expected an aquatic version, but nothing like it. It remains a leather fragrance with green notes and the characteristic hazelnut of the other versions. I think they just rebalanced notes: added greens, removed coffee and chocolate, but kept the hazelnut, leather, and a type of iris, bringing it closer to proposals like Dior Homme Eau for Men or Prada L’Homme. I had good longevity (depends on the skin; many fragrances work very well on me). I feel it’s not very versatile, ideal for autumn, although I prefer Dior Homme Eau for Men. It wasn’t bad, but not indispensable.

Of the fresh summer colognes with iris, this is the best compared to Dior Homme Cologne, Prada L’Homme L’Eau, and Givenchy Gentleman Cologne. The Givenchy is too fresh without lasting power or iris; the Prada has lots of iris and is decent; the Dior, with so many changes, I don’t know which is the cologne, but anyway, it’s the one I like least. This Valentino is excellent, pity it’s discontinued.
Delicious fragrance! Spicy opening from the tomato leaves, but it dries down to something delicious that perfectly fulfills its niche: fresh, masculine, and wearable. Of course, you’ll receive compliments. It might be the least famous in the Uomo V line, but that doesn’t mean skipping it; I highly recommend it.
Valentino took that groundbreaking iris accord thanks to Dior Homme 2005 and gave a different direction to its Uomo line, moving from masculine and gourmand to what we have here. Although it carries ‘acqua,’ it’s not aquatic; to that iris-gourmand DNA, they added mandarin citrus and strange greens (green tomato or leaves) along with sage and suede, giving a velvety touch. The opening is fresh with that sweetened citrus-green vibe from the original nut and chocolate DNA (even if not listed) and the iris with a timid earthy patchouli. It’s delicious, versatile, and gets compliments, although in my country the strong heat makes it disappear quickly, so I recommend reapplying. Poor longevity: it projects well for the first hour, then stays close to the skin and vanishes after three or four hours.
Valentino took that groundbreaking iris accord (thanks to Dior Homme 2005 and then Demachy) and steered the Uomo line in a different direction. Although it carries ‘acqua,’ it’s not aquatic; to that iris-gourmand DNA they added mandarin citrus and strange greens (maybe green tomato or leaves) along with sage and suede (not leather, for me) giving a velvety touch. The opening is fresh with that green-citrus accord, sweetened by the original nut and chocolate DNA (though not listed) and the powdery iris seal with a timid earthy patchouli. It’s delicious; although it seems ideal for summer, it works almost year-round, better on cool days (26°C) because strong heat makes it disappear quickly. Performance is poor: it projects well for the first hour, then clings to the skin and vanishes by 3-4 hours. I recommend carrying the bottle to reapply. It’s a delicious perfume that generates many compliments.
Everything I’ve tried from Valentino so far, including the classic Uomo EDT I loved, made me excited about this fresh version that exceeded my expectations. It’s very fresh, elegant, and rich; subjectively, I think it’s a hybrid between the Valentino DNA and Prada L’Homme L’Eau, but with originality that makes it unique. It opens effervescent with a piercing iris that later becomes velvety, refreshing, and tasty. It has a green touch of tomato leaf and I think sage is the main ingredient, balancing everything so the leather, iris, and fruity accord (mandarin and another fruit) don’t clash, giving a sweet and distinctive look. Moderate performance; I see it as unisex with a slight masculine trend for use almost year-round, though in cold weather I’d have other options. I like it a lot and think it’s a worthy flanker to Uomo. Rating: 9/10.
All Valentino tested so far, including the classic Uomo EDT, are my favorites, so this fresh version gave me high hopes and exceeded expectations. It’s very fresh, elegant, and rich; it sounds like a hybrid between Valentino’s DNA and Prada L’Homme L’Eau, with an original touch that makes it unique. It starts effervescent with a sharp iris that later becomes velvety (as Abry_81 said). There’s a green tomato leaf touch, and I think the sage is key, balancing everything so the leather, iris, and fruity accord (mandarin and another fruit) don’t overwhelm, giving a sweet and distinctive vibe. Performance is moderate; I see it as unisex with a slight male leaning, usable almost year-round (in cold weather I’d have other options). I love it and think it’s a worthy flanker. Note: 9/10.
I saw it by chance yesterday and, loving the original, didn’t even think about trying it. My nose doesn’t detect a difference from the original, just softer. I sniffed it on my hand during the whole movie Oppenheimer and found no distinguishing point. The listed notes shock me. I’d go for the original and apply less.
I agree with many: it’s an ultra-aquatic version of Valentino Uomo. The sillage is non-existent; if you don’t bring your nose close, you won’t smell it. Performance is moderate to low. The iris and mandarin are very noticeable, while the rest is barely distinguishable. It’s so skin-scented that even with over-application, it’s hard to smell anything else. I didn’t like it, but you might; remember we have different skin chemistries.
I bought it blindly on sale and the disappointment was minimal. It has nothing of ‘acqua’ and the citrus is just a spark; it smells of iris and leather. If you like leather, you’ll like it. They say it has no sillage, but on my skin it lasts all day (pity I don’t like the note). It doesn’t smell bad, but it’s indifferent: just another perfume in the crowd.
Fresh at first, but it dries down too sweet for hot weather; it smells almost identical to the regular version.
