Valentino has launched its first men's fragrance, Valentino Uomo Eau de Toilette (50ml/7,100 yen, 100ml/10,500 yen).

Perfumer Olivier Polge has created a fragrance that embodies the sophisticated man envisioned by creative directors Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pierpaolo Piccioli. The opening notes of bergamot and myrtle are followed by coffee and gianduja cream, and are enveloped in cedar and leather.

The bottle, reminiscent of a liqueur bottle, is entirely prism-cut, and the brand name is engraved on the metal band. The black box is trimmed in gold.
