The story behind the bottle.
Born in Roma Extradose Donna, launched in 2025 by Valentino and crafted by perfumers Honorine Blanc-Hattab and Amandine Clerc-Marie, is an Oriental Vanilla fragrance that captures the essence of Roman warmth. The composition opens with a burst of blackcurrant, adding a vibrant freshness to the mix before rum takes center stage in the heart, lending an intoxicating depth. At its core lies vanilla, offering a sweet and comforting finish that lingers like a warm embrace.
Apply two sprays to pulse points — this fragrance blooms gradually over time. The blackcurrant top note fades quickly, so relying on the base notes for lasting warmth is key.
