UOMO Salvatore Ferragamo
A brand new fragrance for men who want to immerse themselves in an Italian lifestyle, heritage, and innovation. What does the Italian way of life represent? For the Ferragamo man, it is an attitude, a state of being, a way of approaching life that involves always chasing the best – with irony and optimism, and an eye for style and beauty.

UOMO Salvatore Ferragamo is a charismatic oriental woody creation that leaves a lasting impression, just like the man who wears it. An elegant embodiment of masculinity where vibrant woody notes interplay with invigorating gourmand notes of pure seduction. A fresh and cool opening, infused with an irreverent sense of charm using unexpected ingredients of Black Pepper, Cardamom and Bergamot. The heart of the fragrance is built around an iconic and classically Italian ingredient, the Tiramisu. The combination of Orange Blossom and Ambrox, perfectly represents the duality of Italian men: strong, confident and roguish, yet seductive and sweet. Cashmere Wood and Sandalwood seal the fragrance with a touch of Tonka Bean, leaving an indelible mark with enormous long lasting qualities
