The story behind the bottle.
Valentino Uomo Born in Roma Ivory, crafted by Alberto Morillas and launched in 2025, is a woody fragrance that captures the essence of Manhattan's nightlife in the 1970s. The composition opens with sparkling bergamot and radiant lavender before giving way to a sensual smoky fireplace accord. This limited edition scent embodies the spirit of inclusivity and individual expression from that era, merging fresh spicy and aromatic notes with warm woody undertones.
This fragrance is best applied in two light sprays to allow the smoky fireplace accord to develop over time. It pairs well with cooler evenings or indoor settings where its warmth can truly shine.
