Born in Roma Purple Melancholia Donna - Eau de Parfum Pour Femme Chyprée Fruitée

Great everyday scent with a je-ne-sais-quoi

The plum adds a sweetness that is just right, enough so that it isn't "too much" if your nose is sensitive to strong or overtly sweet smells. It feels like a delicate spring afternoon and the plum adds a uniqueness to the perfume that isn't easily replicated or found in other scents.

Beautiful bottle and scent!

I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Honest review, I LOVE this perfume!! I’m in no way getting paid to say this but I adore Valentino scents and this one has been by far my favorite! It smells so elegant , so beautiful I can’t even describe it but it has some pheromones or something that make me go WOW!!

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I was super excited to be picked to receive this perfume. As soon as I got it and opened it up to smell it I wasn’t a huge fan. It almost reminded me of cough medicine. The packaging is super pretty and I’m a fan of Valentino perfumes but this one wasn’t for me.

Dark Velvet Bloom💜

Valentino Born in Roma Melancholia first hits with a balanced fruity note that naturally blends into a rich floral heart from the osmanthus. It then wraps the entire fragrance in a soft warm vanilla that ties everything together seamlessly. This fragrance formula has a bit of everything fruity, floral, and sweet yet is layered with subtly dark, sensual notes. It makes you feel confidently delicate; perfect for any occasion or special event. What impressed me most was that the fruitiness in this fragrance isn’t overwhelming. It stays smooth and wearable without becoming too sweet. In terms of performance, longevity is strong on skin, but even better on fabric. On a velvet jacket and cardigan, the scent lasted a few days. Recommended🖤🥀✨

Perfect and elegant

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Valentino born in Roma purple melancolía EDP, is such a pretty mix of fruity and soft floral. It opens a little juicy, then settles into something warm and sweet, and creamy. With a smooth vanilla finish. It’s very feminine but a little moody. Perfect for a night out and when you want to feel elegant. Not too overbearing. Long lasting scent. The bottle is very beautiful and unique.

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This packaging is to die for, it’s not only the size of my palm but i love how it’s see through so you can see the stunning purple color. The smell is very dark and it lasts all day long!

Great scent

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This scent last all day long and the bottle is so pretty to have sitting anywhere in your house. It’s very elegant and great for a night out. I get many compliments wearing this!

Amazing

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This perfume has a gorgeous packaging and looks really good. It has a very different smell from the original Born in Roma perfume but still smells wonderful.

Plum Heaven 💜

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This fragrance is perfect for spring & summer time, the scent is very different compared to other perfumes in my collection. The notes of plum are what make it stand out & it being paired with vanilla is a great combination. I found that it unfortunately doesn’t last as much as I wish it would on the skin, but things like Vaseline under the perfume definitely help. Add this to your collection now!!

Not as I expected

I redeemed my fragrance certificate for this, but it doesn't have that wow smell like I would've liked. This is good for layering. The scent dies down pretty quickly, I always find that layering helps somewhat.

Wanted to love it...

At first I really enjoyed the smell but after wearing it over a weekend I found I was having to constantly respray myself cause I couldnt smell anything on me. This I found was really odd for Valentino because they are always very long lasting on me with a great scent trail. Will be bringing back as I am so disappointed. The plum and osmanthus is beautiful but I get more of a powdery dry down and no vanilla. Ive loved all the Valentino flankers but this is a no for me, sadly.

not my fav

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Very strong floral scent with musky undertone. Not my typical go to scent. Love the bottle and presentation of the perfume. Large bottle. For someone who enjoys this scent it would we good.
