Valentino
When considering legendary Italian fashion house Valentino, three words come to mind: luxurious, bold and iconic. For more than 50 years, Valentino has been a cornerstone of the international fashion scene, creating evocative fragrances, statement-making ready-to-wear, and signature shoes and handbags (under the Valentino Garavani label) with haute couture craftsmanship.

No
Did not like this perfume. It smells too strong on top of that super spicy and smoky for me. The bottle is stunning. More for date nights and winter. Lasts more than 8 hours.

Great all around fragrance, easy to wear and uniqu
The first cologne I ever begged my mom to buy me was the original Born in Roma EDT. As like all Valentinos, it has a beautiful bottle and fits great in the hands. It might not last as long as the others in the line but sometimes this can be for the better. It projects great in the warm weather and is considered a perfect “clubbing” fragrance by many, its sure to fetch you compliments.
