The story behind the bottle.
Valentino Uomo Acqua was launched in 2017 and crafted by perfumers Sophie Labbé and Alexis Dadier. This aromatic EDT opens with a burst of mandarin orange and tomato, creating an unexpected freshness that reads as both citrusy and green. The heart is anchored by sage and iris, while the base offers earthy patchouli and leather notes. This composition captures a modern sensibility, blending crisp freshness with subtle sophistication.
Apply two sprays to your pulse points for a balanced effect. The citrus opening notes are vibrant but fade within an hour, allowing the powdery and leather elements in the base to emerge gradually throughout the day.
