Valentino Donna Born In Roma by Valentino is jasmine three ways, set on a soft bed of vanilla and wood. It starts with black currant, pink pepper and bergamot, tart and a little sparkly. The heart is the point: jasmine tea, jasmine and jasmine sambac, moving from green and airy to rich and creamy. Bourbon vanilla, guaiac wood and Cashmeran then warm it into something powdery and smooth. It launched in 2019 and is mostly chosen by women who like a floral with some sweetness and polish. Voters wear it in autumn and winter, mostly in the evening and at night, though it also suits the office. Most wearers vote its longevity moderate, and most call its sillage moderate too. A 3ml decant lets you wear it through a week of dark evenings before you commit.

The house
More from Valentino
Valentino is an Italian couture house whose story starts in 1960, and its perfumes bring the same sense of occasion to everyday wear. Vanilla runs through much of the range, brightened with bergamot and mandarin, spiced with ginger or cardamom, softened by jasmine and rose. Valentino Donna Born In Roma is the one to begin with: fruity up top, vanilla and woods beneath. Valentino Uomo Born In Roma Intense pairs vanilla with lavender. The original Valentino Uomo Born in Roma is cooler, mineral and woody, while Valentino Uomo goes nutty and warm. Try a Donna and an Uomo side by side.
