Valentino Born in Roma Intense Donna Eau de Parfum is a magnetic floral-amber composition that amplifies the original’s signature into a deeper, after-dark mood. Starts with an ambery & solar Bourbon vanilla vibe lifted with a blackcurrant accord and bergamot, a luminous trio of jasmine at the heart, and a warm benzoin trail. Crafted for those who live intensely and love Roman nights.

Story & Positioning
Born in Roma Intense is conceived as a tribute to Rome at sunset. An “aristo-punk” statement that pushes vanilla and jasmine into a bolder, more sensual register for nights out, date nights, and occasions when you want plush warmth with modern edge. Part of Valentino’s Born in Roma Donna line, it sits in the floral-amber family with a vanilla focus. If you enjoy jasmine-vanilla ambers like YSL Libre Intense, Carolina Herrera Good Girl, or Burberry Goddess, this plays in that alluring, addictive space.
Bottle & Design
The faceted bottle pays tribute to Valentino’s iconic Rockstud—a pyramidal motif inspired by Roman architecture—here rendered in an edgy black-to-pink look that cues “nightfall in Rome.”
