DONNA BORN IN ROMA EAU DE PARFUM
Fragrance Family: Amber Floral
Key Notes: Sambac Jasmine, Cashmeran, Vanilla
About the Fragrance: Launched in 2019, Valentino Born In Roma Donna Eau de parfum is a women’s perfume inspired by Rome—a place where past and present coexist. The modern ambery fragrance tells a story of self-expression: a celebration of people living life freely while embracing their heritage. It is luxuriously feminine with an edgy touch inspired by Rome’s Street culture today.
Fragrance Description: The opulent fragrance opens with notes of one of the most luxurious ingredients in perfumery, jasmine sambac. The intoxicating scent has been an icon of femininity for centuries.
The woody scent of cashmeran brings a vibrant heart to the fragrance. An unusually spicy note adds a layer to the multi-faceted note, bringing a lively turn to this sensual note.
Finishing notes of vanilla bourbon bring a rich, leathery, smoky aspect. A refined sense of darkness doubled with extreme sensuality, crucial to the intensity of the signature. Its dry down is spicy, carnal, sensual, and distinctive, bringing an irreverent twist to the fragrance.
This warm floral scent is perfect for winter and fall but will bring spice to your date nights all year.
About the Bottle: The bottle pays tribute to the iconic Valentino Rockstud. This edgy pyramidal design, inspired by Roman architecture, is a house signature of Maison Valentino. The edgy rock-studded bottle is made even more modern thanks to the contrast of black leather with vivid pink. At Valentino, pink is punk, poetic, romantic but also bold and daring.
Born in Roma Donna is also offered in a 10ml mini perfume bottle studded with the iconic Valentino Rock stud, in a vibrant pink protective rubber sleeve for travel.

THE STORY
A STORY WHERE ROMA IS A CHARACTER
BORN IN ROMA began with a dialogue with Valentino’s native city: Rome. Full of the memories of the past, cultures and aesthetics layer the city’s very walls, while Rome’s streets are a symbol of free thought. Reverence and irreverence collide. Rome is the city the Aristopunks adopt in their minds
ARISTO PUNKS. (n) masculine/feminine
A person who makes the ordinary extraordinary. Characterized as proud of their roots, culture and valuing difference. Nothing is imposed. Sharing the beauty of individuality, inherited culture is seen anew.

BORN IN ROMA is a fragrance for a generation who embrace diversity, value personalities and like to celebrate them with their crew. A scent that stands for owning the magnificence of the past, while having a free and irreverent attitude towards life. Claiming heritage yet creating their own rules.
