Carthusia Carthusia Uomo is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2004. Carthusia Uomo opens with Green Notes, Bergamot, Lemon, and Freesia, settles into a heart of Cedar, Patchouli, Jasmine, and Geranium, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Sandalwood, and Oakmoss. Carthusia's Carthusia Uomo carries a Statement verdict, a green-led wear.

This is a quintessential grown-up masculine scent, a classic barbershop vibe that's divisive - some call it timeless, others dated. If you want something fresh, clean, and unmistakably masculine, you'll love it. If you're after anything remotely modern or playful, best steer clear. It's an old-money staple.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Citral Geranial from Lemon
  • Oakmoss Evernia prunastri extract from Oakmoss

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Rose geranium Pelargonium Graveolens Oil from Geranium
  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Carthusia Uomo opens with a lively burst of green citrus - lemon and bergamot sharpened by fresh freesia. This quickly evolves into a heart of clean florals, with lily of the valley and jasmine softened by a warm geranium. It settles into a sophisticated base of woody notes like cedar and sandalwood, enveloped by earthy oakmoss and amber, with a subtle hint of musk.
