Notice the aldehydes right away, sparkling against kumquat, coriander, and Brazilian rosewood in an opening that feels considerably more polished than most typical men's citrus colognes ever attempt. Cyclamen, clary sage, cinnamon, and labdanum warm the middle into spiced floral territory, genuinely interesting rather than predictable as the composition develops. Musk, ambergris, cedar, and wormwood take over by the dry down, dense and herbal enough to give Uomo Moschino Cologne real staying power through an entire long evening.
Evening wear and formal occasions suit this aromatic spiced Eau de Toilette especially well, confident rather than loud about its own considerable presence. Few colognes in this price range commit to an unusual wormwood note the way this one does, spiced, warm, and unafraid of it.
