Where to buy

What is more, it is a true standard-bearer of Italian craftsmanship around the world, while carrying in its DNA an undeniable love for its country of origin: Italy. Once again, in 2022, Valentino seizes an opportunity to honor its homeland. Its women's fragrance Valentino Donna Born In Roma Coral Fantasy draws inspiration from the Roman sky at sunset. So, how about tasting all the effervescence of the Dolce Vita?

Valentino Born In Roma Coral Fantasy, a tribute to the city of Rome

Valentino Donna Born In Roma Coral Fantasy is not a fragrance like any other. It is a true invitation to discover Rome, at sunset. Let yourself be seduced by the beauty of this coral light spreading across the horizon and enhancing the city's architecture! All the cultural splendor of Rome seems to serve as a source of inspiration for this fragrance. Valentino Donna Born In Roma Coral Fantasy also evokes the hour at which the city becomes more effervescent. During the Golden Hour, Romans gather at café terraces. They set the world to rights and give free rein to their desires and all their fantasies. It is precisely this burst of gaiety that is found in Valentino Born In Roma Coral Fantasy.

The colorful and sensual breath of Valentino Born In Roma Coral Fantasy

Valentino Donna Born In Roma Coral Fantasy owes its existence to perfumers Nadège Le Garlentezec and Jacques Huclier, who sought to capture all the mischievous character of the Valentino woman. It all begins with a vivid note of orange. Its soft, juicy burst is paired with a more colorful kiwi. Then, the Valentino woman reveals her smooth sensuality. Her femininity takes shape through a duo of Indian jasmine and rose, while ambrette lends this fragrance a more powdery and musky dimension. The whole ends with a more woody power of Texas cedar, softened by white musks.

The coral color also takes over the Valentino bottle

Of course, the orange color of the Roman sky does not only inspire this fragrance's breath. It also appears on its bottle. The result is an infinitely luminous glass case. What is more, in a nod to modernity, it dares a striking contrast, adding touches of opaque black. Finally, the iconic rockstuds are still present. These small pyramidal studs are an iconic code of the brand. Once found on Valentino's leather goods, they now appear on this bottle, while also recalling the shape of the cut stones of Roman palaces.

Olfastory’s review

The Valentino house was created in 1960. Since then, it has not missed an opportunity to pay tribute to its Italian origins. It was precisely in this spirit that the first Valentino Donna was created, in 2015. A symbol of lightness, grace and delicacy, it was later followed by Valentino Donna Born In Roma, in 2019. In 2022, Valentino signs a new flanker of its scent. It is called Valentino Donna Born In Roma Coral Fantasy and draws direct inspiration from the beauty of the Roman sky at sunset. Here is our review of it.

The advertising

Crossing Rome on a motorcycle

Adut Akech and Anwar Hadid cross Rome on a motorcycle in a film referenced by an advertising catalogue, set to music by Trinity Ezah.

An advertising catalogue lists a film in which two characters cross historic streets on a motorcycle, the woman dressed in colorful and elaborate gowns, under the caption “many ways to be you”. Models Adut Akech and Anwar Hadid play the two roles, and the soundtrack is carried by Trinity Ezah.

A Spanish version of the same spot follows Adut Akech across Rome until she joins Anwar Hadid. The same catalogue lists the earlier Born in Roma and Born in Roma: For Men spots, which already featured this duo.
