Just got this the other day (with the new formula) and it’s honestly devine. Have never smelt the old formula but if it’s better than the new one than it must be an absolute masterpiece!
My friend has the old formulation one, and I have recently bought the new formulation one. Smells 99% similar, but the new bottle feels a bit more fresh and just better. Maybe because its newer? Whatever, both smells amazing!
Got a 2022 bottle and it’s a pretty amazing intoxicating scent will definitely get ya laid cause of how good it is, it just pulls you in more and more! I guess you can say I was late to the party but still glad I snagged it.
I have actually fallen out of love with Valentino since the Born in Roma range was introduced. I'm ok with the bottle changes but I wish they would leave what's inside alone! The original Uomo and Intense are both fantastic. I'll reserve judgement on the new Intense version once I have smelt it.
I just recently got the 2021 to have backups bc on the Valentino web sight this one is discontinued . I love the cap . I agree with the review . My older bottles have had time to macerate so im sure that plays a part in the opening being stronger to my nose then the new version . I really like them both . This is one of my favorite designer fragrances of all time .
Just thought I’d comment on this as a user of the old formula I was almost put off by buying the new bottle from the comments. I received the new formula today and it’s just as good as the old formula and I sprayed about 5 sprays and it has lasted me almost 8 hours
I have 2 old bottles and 3 "new" bottles. They allmost smell identical. Don't break the bank while hunting for old bottles. Both fragrances are excellent!
I didn't know Valentino re released uomo intense! I never got to try it originally. Can't wait to grab a bottle! I own Valentino uomo and love it. Great indepth comparison.
got the new bottle around Halloween after my last old formulation bottle ran out. definitely an improvement on a scent i love, personally think it's a nicer leathery iris scent than gentleman edp and on a par with dior homme intense
I have the original uomo but it doesnt last very long but it smells so good. I just got this one and it is strong! I usually like to spray random fragrances that I can smell while I work or study and I think I sprayed too much thinking that it was the original uomo. Lets just say its a lil beast lol. I can still smell it after a whole day. It's a classic!
Great review as usual. Thanks for clearing that up for us! Question: which would you pick between Givenchy gentleman reserve privee vs VUI Lastly, is it redundant to own booth? Thanks
I had this exact same question so I bought both. Reserve privee is a boozy nutty iris. Uomo intense is a vanilla and leather iris. Reserve Privee has very poor sillage and longevity, around 2-3 hours. Uomo Intense goes for 8-9 hours.
I have both, and I agree with your assessment of new vs. old formulation. I prefer the old batch, as I think the leather note is more prominent, and less sweet than the newer version... and for me, that equates to a little more masculine. I also think the older formulation projects a bit more. I actually can't stand DHI, as I think the iris smells too much like a makeup bag, and feminine... DHP... I'll take that all day long. But if the comparison is between old formulation vs DHI, I'll take this all day long.
I just got this for my son. To me it smells like pine cones? Its the new version studded collar with a cap. Not sure what to think but he if he likes it I love it ❤
I still got a bottle of the older formula and have been debating on trying the new formulation. I've been hearing good things and it's pretty much the same.
Great video man, also in line with the scent profile of Valentino Uomo Intense can you review the line of Narciso Rodriguez Bleu Noir for Him Line? I'm torn between the EDT, EDP, and Parfum Thanks! More power to your channel 🙏
Valentino Uomo Intense was launched in 2016 - Top notes are Mandarin Orange and Clary Sage; middle notes are Iris and Tonka Bean; base notes are Vanilla and Leather. Valentino Uomo Intense 2021 was launched in 2021. Top notes are Mandarin Orange and Nutmeg; middle notes are Juniper and Sage; base notes are Iris, Vanilla, Leather, Tonka Bean and Patchouli.
Thanks for doing this review. I haven't seen anyone cover this since the reformulation, or even acknowledge it has changed. The juniper makes it a no-go for me. I can't stand that note. I haven't seen it in stores anywhere. Glad I didn't blind buy a bottle. I guess my DHI will have to be close enough.
I got the old no cap and the atomizer shoots a straight stream and it’s setup so you can’t change it. I ended up having to buy a travel bottle and fill it with it to get a better spray.
He says the old version has more punch at the beginning But he also says the new version projects more at the beginning than the old version where is the difference? For me the sillage is important no matter how many hours the perfume lasts on the skin. For me the scent trail is important Which version is better? Thanks in advance nice greetings from Germany Berlin
@@unknownbutknown6814 I honestly don't know , I bought it because of the good reviews on fragrantica and the hype. 50ml was 85euros. it does project but not loudly.
Zara 9.0 was my daily fragrance for more than a year. Recently bought Narciso Rodriguez Parfum. Also like Givenchy Gentleman Intense. Would Valentino Uomo be a safe blind buy ?
I know it's off topic but could you do a full review of versace the dreamer. Having watched other reviews I bought it and I am in love with this old school gem. Just wondered what you thought. cheers fella. Love your channel
Can you do a review of the original Valentino Uomo EDT 2014 vs the L’Oréal reformulated 2021 version? Some people say it is missing key notes like cocoa and hazelnut from the original.
I would prefer the cap since they dint had lock like jpg so its better they have added a cap for me its a decider other thn how it smells of course that also matters allot
Actually i only know the new one so for me its ok 🤣🤣🤣 Long lasting…smoth as you said This is the Brother of CD Homme Intense and familiar to Givenchy EDP Keep up mate Good content
It's always the same thing. Comparisons of old bottles with new bottles are useless because the lighter notes of old perfumes, which are usually on the top, are gone with time, while they are still fresh in a new bottle, so you end up noticing a difference in density and weight in the fragance always in the opening, it's totally normal. You can see, it's always in the opening that there's a difference, never in the dry down. Not always a fragrance is reformulated, we need to pay attention to this and stop being superstitious!
There is another point: in EDPs the dosing of base notes is higher, and base notes as woods, vanilla and tonka macerate more through the time. So, of course the base notes are felt as above the heart and head notes.
I guess you didn't listen to the part where the I had said that the note breakdown changed - I've tested both into the dry down and there are still differences, although slight. It's also worth noting "maturation" is controversial while some people say it makes a difference and others don't, especially in fragrances that use a lot of synthetics.
@@ChaosFragrances thanks for the video and explanation, I appreciate it allot. I have one question tho, would it be possible to share the batch codes from both the old and new bottle please?
old version made by puig with iris absolute ie real iris new version made by L'Oréal with iris accord hence synthetic ingredients to smell like iris I will stick with puig tbh I have enough stock one of my core scents
I heard they fully took out the hazelnut, chocolate, vanilla notes from the original and is replaced by cardamom, black pepper, vetiver. Especially the second reformulation in 2021. Any good alternatives, which feature chocolatey, warmer notes?
I don't really get where does your hype come from. I bought the new formulation almost a week ago, sprayed it every day and tested for days and his performance are really really bad. Anyone elses noticed it? I mean, im not expecting somenthing performing like a Megamare or other 20+ stuff, but this barealy reachs an our... Skin or clothes is irrilevant. So disappointed. Imma buying an old formulation to confront.
Disagree, the old outprojects the new one. Accidentally got the new one the week it came out, was so dissapointed had to send it back. And find an old one on ebay.

@@kevins5498 if you get a decant of it, be prepared to buy a 3.4 oz bottle of it. The bottle is worth half of what they charge on its’ own. Good luck
Imo this stuff smells better quality than half my niche frags. It’s like a deep 3D type of fragrance. The Aqua is amazing also. Both masterpieces imo

Have you tried Givenchy Gentleman EDP
@@blackknightdl I have but I still preferred Valentino, for me I think it was a bit more refined

Hi,
which one do you prefer between Valentino Uomo intense and Valentino Uomo EDT?
Thank you for your answer !
Go check his full Valentino Uomo line video. He tells you there
How good is the sprayer on the new one, shoot more out than the old one
A few months later pretty much all retailers STILL sell the old version.
It’s the same thing
Is that patchouli note strong in valentino uomo intense 2021?
always liked the distinctive bottles-look like pineapples 🍍😁
can you also compare Uomo EDT of Puig and LOreal? I do appreciate that
thankyouuu
What seasons can the new version be worn in?
I can't wait for valentino uomo parfum
Did you do one for uomo edt??
Hi dude, the iris smell strong like the old one?
So the 2016 one is the same as 2021 just different bottle design ?
He said more smooth and less long lasting little bit
@@Mr-AbuNaji hm i agree
I returned the new formulation
Batch the 2019 is good,?
Now is 2 formulation.

I got a bottle for 50 bucks off ebay a year or so back payed more for aqua
I just bought a bottle and disappointed. Looses its iris after an hour and is just sweet. Not my vibe
Did they discountinued Valentino Uomo Intense?
No, it's just been reformulated.
old version made by puig with iris absolute ie real iris
new version made by L'Oréal with iris accord hence synthetic ingredients to smell like iris

Yeah on me too, last really short. The smell is great but it not last one hour, except when you sniff right from the skin.
Less leather..? 🥲

The old formulation was just smarties and m&ms in your face, new one is a lot more grown up and masculine
