Scentrack: Jovanotti - Serenata Rap

| Source: Moschino |
Moschino Uomo? was released back in 1997, the year I finished elementary school. When I look back at the year it seems like a distant dream,
a memory of some other person implanted in my brain. Everything seems fuzzily and
indistinct, but I can clearly recall the general happy feeling of hanging out
with my old gone friends or gatherings with all the members of my family. Such happy, sunny, and naïve days. This sunny vibe Moschino Uomo? gives me. Sometimes
it's sad to wear such a happy fragrance with this past-times melancholy, but luckily
Uomo? for me is usually an uplifting, happy and vivid creation.
Moschino Uomo? opens with a brisk and fresh kick of Mediterranean bergamot
accompanied with a touch of pepper and extremely clean aldehydes. Under this
introductory fresh kick, hidden are some woody cedar-like nuances. The
composition gradually morphs into a very interesting and distinctive way. It
becomes more floral and warmer. The cinnamon note becomes more pronounced
paired with just a hint of warm and cozy labdanum. The base is simple but gorgeous.
Clean musk with some beautiful ambergris tendencies.
Nowadays Uomo? is mostly overlooked and located on bottom shelves.
However, I strongly advise giving a chance to this happy and nostalgic creation.
