deep, reassuring light to reveal the character traits of a radiant, energetic and determined man. Composed in three steps around Valentino's Colour, Cool, Couture notes, this spicy oriental eau de toilette surprises with an unexpected gingerbread accord. THE COLOUR TOP NOTES: a fresh and exotic twist of juicy Italian mandarin and zesty, exotic pineapple accord awaken the senses. This explosion of colourful, energizing freshness celebrates the optimism of today's Valentino man. THE COOL BASE NOTES: This new, never used before accord captures the scent of freshly baked gingerbread creating an oriental, compulsive warmth. THE COUTURE BASE NOTES: Madagascan vanilla complements the gingerbread accord, with its soft, smooth facets. Its leathery and animal character blossoms in the warm sensuality of cedarwood create a powerful, lasting sensuality. The bottle is designed with the iconic Valentino Rockstud: inspired by Roman architecture, it transforms a bottle from classic to edgy. The bottle is multi-facetted and energized by a yellow fluro signature. The BORN IN ROMA creation started with a dialogue with Valentino's native city: Rome. The streets of Rome are full of the memories of the past. A symbol of free thought, a city where cultures and aesthetics layer on the walls. Reverence and irreverence collide. BORN IN ROMA pays a tribute to both haute couture and street culture that coexists in Maison Valentino designs. It is about an attitude towards life: I claim my heritage and I create my own rules. “If you don't dream, you can't deliver dreams” Pierpaolo Piccioli, Maison Valentino Creative Director
