The iconic Born in Roma studded bottle by Valentino is recognized everywhere. This collection consists of 6 perfumes, with a For Her and For Him version of each. The newly announced Born in Roma The Gold Donna and Uomo are limited-edition summer fragrances designed to beat the heat and honor the city of Rome in the summertime.
Rome is at its best during the summer as daylight illuminates the ancient cobblestone streets and highlights the city’s timeless beauty. The Born in Roma The Gold perfumes highlight these aspects of the old-age city.
Born in Roma The Gold Donna (For her):

Perfume Notes
Top | Italian Mandarin |
Middle | Golden Gardenia Accord |
Base | Coco Accord |
The Italian Mandarin note is tangy, fresh, and joyful—the scent we’re supposed to get with this summer fragrance’s opening. The gardenia note at the heart complements the citrusy opening. It is zesty, sweet, and slightly creamy.
The base of this edition of Born in Roma is Coco, a chocolatey, warm note. This note grounds this perfume, gives it warmth, and extends its longevity.
Born in Roma The Gold Uomo (For him):

Perfume Notes
Top | Spices |
Middle | Virginia Cedar |
Base | Amber Accord and Vanilla Accord |
The top notes in the Uomo version of this Valentino fragrance are spices, which are completely different from the citrus notes we see in the Donna version. The spices here are cold spices, though, which suit the summer theme of these scents.
The middle note is Virginia cedar. This note softens the sharpness of the fragrance with a woody and smooth scent. The amber scent at the base is a blend of warm, powdery, sweet scents. Paired with the vanilla, the base of this perfume is warm and sweet.
This is what we know so far about these two limited-edition fragrances, which Valentino will launch sometime this summer. Stay tuned for the launch of these perfumes on our website, or visit any V Perfumes store near you to try them as soon as they are launched!
