About Salvatore Ferragamo
Salvatore Ferragamo by Salvatore Ferragamo is a cologne that doesn't shout for attention—it earns it quietly. Launched in the 1980s, this fragrance represents the Italian fashion house's philosophy: elegance stripped of excess, sophistication without pretense. It's the kind of scent a man reaches for when he wants to smell like himself, just better. Fresh yet substantial, it bridges the gap between everyday wear and something special enough for important moments.
Fragrance Family:
Aromatic Fougère
Scent Type:
Fresh, Citrus, Woody, Aromatic, Clean
Notes:
The opening hits with bright bergamot and lemon—that immediate freshness that makes you feel awake and alive. Lavender and geranium soften things in the middle, adding an herbal, slightly powdery quality that keeps it grounded and masculine without being heavy-handed. The base settles into sandalwood and cedar, with hints of amber and musk that add warmth and staying power. There's a subtle tobacco undertone that gives it character—nothing overstated, just enough to remind you there's depth there.
Suggested Use
Apply to your pulse points—wrists, neck, and behind the ears—right after showering when your skin is warm and slightly damp. This cologne projects well without being aggressive, so one or two spritzes is plenty. It's versatile enough for office days and casual weekends alike. The scent develops beautifully over the first few hours, with the citrus fading gradually to reveal the woody, amber-tinged base that can carry through an entire day.

NOT THE ORIGINAL SF FRAGRANCE, I believe the bottle was refilled with who knows what. The metal portion on top of the bottle was reglued and did not stick to the glass. Will never consider buying from this site again.

My signature fragrance...
I discovered this great fragrance many years ago & wear it frequently. It's just unique & unlike any other fragrance I have experienced. I will be 71 next month & my sense of smell is not good due to health issues but Ferragamo I am still able to enjoy & I got to have this in stock. I stopped buying many other fragrances I used in the past but must have this around.
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

It is a alright cologne. I was expecting much better though
I was really looking forward to this fragrance, because I thought I would really enjoy it . . . But it was not what I hoped and really has a fig note that overpowers everything else. For the first hour or two it is not that great, and does not have the best projection. After you spray it on a shirt or piece of clothing, after and hour or two it does smell nice.
Bottom Line
No, I would not recommend to a friend.

Underwhelming
Dissappointed in this fragrance because I really like the others I own from this brand so I expected much better. My girlfriends favourite fragrance is womanity which is based on 3 different fig notes, so I was searching for mens fig fragrances, and when I discovered this one, i thought it must be worth a blind buy because every other one I have from this brand are real gems (from the uomo line and the acqua essentiale line) - plus, I have 3 types of fig tree in the garden, so I really like fig, so what could go wrong? It just simply smelt like figs that were almost rotten! Not completely rotten, yet, but reminds me of peeled fig skins that have been sitting there a few hours, and will soon be rotten if left there much longer. No uplifting notes at all and just missing some much needed freshness. Like fermented figs due to the booziness I get from it. I am exploring ways to save it, and that's to layer it with my aventus clone, club de nuit intense, because I dont mind smelling of different variations of aventus most days, but overall this is a disappointing fragrance. I saw review videos and they said dont blind buy it unless u like fig. I love figs but this smells incomplete compared to the other gems from this brand
Bottom Line
No, I would not recommend to a friend.

Salvatore Ferragamo Men
First of all, i would like to say that i really love your website. It came to my attention that most of my favourite perfumes & colognes are found here. The freshness of the packaging was superb. Salvatore Ferragamo has been my choice of perfume since decades. I love this woody/earthy scent on my body & it brings level of my confidence to the fullest. Last but not least, i will continue to purchase more from FragranceX. FragranceX has been the best website so far !!!
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

A True Classic
This great fragrance is ideal as a signature fragrance for all seasons and times of day. Strong enough to be distinctive but not overpowering, it lasts all day and 'ages' well. It belongs to the same family of classic fragrances as Aqua di Parma, Santa Maria Novella and the Guerlain classics, but without their soapy sweetness, making it a much better choice for designer-level customers. I have worn it constantly since it was introduced, and have now bought enough stock via Fragrancex to see me through the next decade. ....... but don't buy it: I don't want competition for the remaining stock!
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

Salvatore Ferragamo - A Unique Adventure
Salvatore Ferragamo released this Men's Fragrance in the 1990s, and while other Ferragamo Scents have been added to the line, the original Ferragamo remains my favorite. There is a seductive herbal/woodsy scent that has a hint of musk, which give this fragrance a unique personality: Wonderfully delightful, seductive, and romantic.
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

Cologne Review
I purchased the cologne as a Christmas gift for my husband (it is his favorite scent). I didn't have time to go to the mall and took a chance on your website. What a relief to see the cologne was exactly what I ordered and not a knock-off. It arrived in plenty of time and just as important; it was packed very well and in perfect condition. I will keep your website in mind for future orders and recommend you as well. Happy New Year and thanks for the Christmas gift help!

CASUAL ITALIAN ELLIGANCE
Casual elegance with a sophisticated flair as embodied within the spirit of the Florentines. That is what Salvatore Ferragamo has come up with in this sumptuous fragrance. The florals mixed with the woods amd mosses carry me back to a spring day in the gardens of the Pitti Palace in Florence. For me as it moves into the dry down the leather emerges which is a brilliant touch coming fom this master Italian shoemaker. As the base notes rise up in a masculine yet subtle blend of oakmoss, musk, cedar amd vetiver I am carried to the op of the hillside garden of the Pitti and in full view of the Tuscan countryside out of which Florence emerges in all it's Reanassance splendor. This is a brilliant rich and reserved fragrance that will stay in your memory long after it has faded with one last romantic whisper. Five gold stars!*****
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

There is not much I can say about the product itself. I've been using it for a very long time. I fell in love with its fragrance back in 1999, when I moved back to the USA for a short period.I've been purchasing it ever since. Unfortunately I've not been able to find it in any shops, so I've taken to purchasing it online.[...]
