The story behind the bottle.
Born in Roma the Gold Donna by Valentino is a vibrant Floral Fruity Gourmand fragrance that captures the essence of a summer in Rome. Launched in 2024, it was crafted by perfumers Honorine Blanc-Hattab, Pierre Negrin, and Amandine Clerc-Marie. The composition opens with the radiant zest of Mandarin, leading to a heart of golden Gardenia that exudes warmth and sunshine. The base note of Coconut adds a sun-kissed tropical touch, making this fragrance feel like a warm embrace on a sunny Roman day.
Apply two sprays to your pulse points — it blooms best on warm skin. This fragrance has a strong opening that fades slightly after an hour, so reapply if you want to maintain its bright and sunny character throughout the day.
