Uomo Born in Roma Purple Melancholia is an eau de toilette for men by Valentino, launched in early 2026 alongside the Donna version. The house describes it as an ambery aromatic woody: cardamom opens it, lavandin forms its heart, and a creamy coconut accord melts into amber woods, over the bergamot and lavender trail of Born in Roma Uomo.
Valentino classifies Uomo Born in Roma Purple Melancholia among the ambery aromatic woody fragrances. The composition opens on cardamom and rests on a creamy coconut accord, which the house pairs with lavandin and amber woods.
Top, heart and base
At the top, a fresh and spicy cardamom brings its liveliness. Aromatic lavandin forms the heart; in the base, a warm blend of amber woods and creamy coconut accord lingers, over the bergamot and lavender trail typical of Born in Roma Uomo.
The notes are arranged here as follows: cardamom at the top; lavandin in the heart; coconut and amber woods in the base, with bergamot left out of this list.
What the label declares
After alcohol, fragrance and water, the list opens with a synthetic ambery wood, coumarin and Virginia cedar oil. Linalyl acetate, bergamot oil, linalool and lavender oil, materials tied to lavender and to citrus, appear in the first half.
Cassia leaf oil and cinnamal, with spicy hints, appear at the end of the list. A UV filter protects the liquid; two colorants, a violet and a red, give it its tint.
