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.

Its moderate performance and clean, green profile make it highly suitable for casual wear and the office, offering a pleasant aura without being overwhelming. It's too understated for formal events and not energetic enough for sport.

About

GMV Uomo is an Eau de Toilette that opens with cypress, mint and bergamot, a cool, green and citrus start. The heart brings lavender, patchouli and geranium, aromatic, herbal and slightly earthy. Oakmoss and sandalwood make up the base, mossy, dry and woody. It is a traditional masculine blend of fresh herbs and moss that feels clean and refined.
