The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2025, Born in Roma Extradose Uomo by Valentino is crafted by perfumers Antoine Maisondieu, Olivier Gillotin, and Guillaume Flavigny. This aromatic, spicy, and woody scent opens with a burst of Spicy Notes that create an immediate sense of vibrancy and energy. The heart note of Wild Lavender adds a fresh herbal touch, balancing the initial heat while maintaining a subtle edge. The composition settles into Woody Notes, providing warmth and depth that resonate throughout the day. This fragrance captures the essence of Rome at night — a city alive with energy and rich with history.

How to wear it

Apply two sprays initially to capture both the spicy top notes and the woody base. The Wild Lavender heart note fades within an hour, so a second application in the evening can enhance its lasting presence.
