Perfume Parlour Italian Gentlemen For Men is an Eau de Parfum launched in 1994. Italian Gentlemen For Men opens with Bergamot, Grapefruit, Galbanum, and Basil, settles into a heart of Pine, Jasmine, Heliotrope, and Juniper, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Sandalwood, Patchouli, and Benzoin. Perfume Parlour's Italian Gentlemen For Men carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

Italian Gentlemen chases Laura Biagiotti Roma per Uomo's sweet-creamy aromatic woody. Community feedback rates it close enough to mix with the original - it captures the elegant, warm citrus-and-sandalwood character on a budget, reading only marginally simpler.

About

Italian Gentlemen opens with a fresh, lively top of bergamot, grapefruit, basil and green galbanum that echoes the citrus-aromatic start of Laura Biagiotti Roma per Uomo. The heart turns soft and slightly green with jasmine, heliotrope, juniper and pine, before a warm, sweet-creamy base of benzoin, sandalwood, cedar and patchouli takes hold - that powdery, vanillic woodiness the original is loved for. Where the 1994 classic feels velvety and refined, this budget version reads only marginally simpler; reviewers who own the original say the two are close enough to mix. Projection is moderate and longevity is good at five to seven hours. It is an elegant, romantic aromatic woody for casual days and cool-weather evenings, and a genuinely close, affordable stand-in for an Italian classic.
