Valentino Donna Born in Roma is a warm vanilla floral fragrance for women. It launched in 2019 and is still in the line today. This is the 100ml bottle.
How It Smells
The opening is blackcurrant alongside pink pepper and bergamot, which is the brightest part of the wear and fades within the first half hour. Underneath, jasmine alongside jasmine sambac and jasmine tea carries the middle, and this is what most people will actually smell on you. What remains at the end of the day is bourbon vanilla alongside cashmeran and guaiac wood, closer to the skin and warmer than the opening suggested.

How does Donna Born in Roma compare to Yves Saint Laurent Libre?
