The review
A long shot. That is where Italian Man For Men 1289 lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Uomo.
Perfume Parlour sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Uomo's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
It is sold as an extrait — a high concentration, which usually means it sits closer to the skin for longer.
At $83 per 100ml it costs 10% less than Uomo — the 2nd cheapest of 2 twins we can price.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Perfume Parlour publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.
What it's built to smell like
What it is chasing: bergamot and myrtle up top, hazelnut cream and roasted coffee in the middle, leather and cedar underneath — the shape of Valentino Uomo.
Top
- bergamot
- myrtle
Heart

Roasted hazelnut cream draped over soft Italian leather, gourmand without being childish.
