A modern floral-amber that’s both radiant and edgy, Valentino Born in Roma Donna Eau de Parfum opens with a lively hit of blackcurrant brightened by bergamot and a twist of pink pepper, blossoms into a couture trio of jasmine (including sambac and jasmine tea), then melts into plush Bourbon vanilla over cashmeran and guaiac wood. It is an elegant, sensual signature inspired by Rome’s clash of heritage and street style.

Story & Positioning
Conceived as “Color, Couture, Cool” in a scent, Born in Roma Donna contrasts juicy blackcurrant and sparkling citrus with a refined jasmine bouquet and a creamy vanilla-woody trail. Manages to be polished enough for the day and irresistible at night. It anchors the Born in Roma Donna line, which later expanded with Yellow Dream (2021), Coral Fantasy (2022), Intense (2023), Pink PP/The Gold (2024), and Extradose (2025). If you enjoy warm floral-vanilla styles like YSL Libre, Burberry Her, Prada Paradoxe, and Good Girl, this sits in a similar, addictive space.
Bottle & Design
A studded glass flacon pays tribute to Valentino’s iconic Rockstud, a motif drawn from Roman architecture, here framing soft pink juice with punk-couture attitude.
