Valentino Born in Roma - Parfum

Great strong cologne

This Valentino cologne is the next step up from the traditional Born In Roma Uomo. It is strong and very forward. I wear this scent when I’m looking for a cologne to last me all day. The packaging is sleek and modern. The scent is complex and very strong. This is great for anyone who loves a strong forward lavender based scent. Great for day or night.

A smooth scene for the summer

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Valentino Uomo Born in Roma Extradose is a bold and smooth fragrance that really stands out. From the first spray, you get this rich blend of sweet vanilla and lavender, which gives it a warm, almost creamy feel. As it dries down, the amber and woody notes kick in, adding depth and making it feel modern and masculine without being overpowering. One thing I really love is the bottle and packaging which are super cool and stylish, it definitely gives off a luxury vibe. It looks just as good on the shelf as it smells on the skin. I’m looking forward to making this my go-to scent for the summer. It’s fresh enough to wear during the day but still has enough character for a night out. The scent lasts for hours and I’ve already gotten compliments after just a couple of wears. If you’re into fragrances that are smooth, confident, and a little sweet without going overboard, this one’s worth checking out.

Great scent

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Has a spicy long lasting leather note balanced nicely with a vanilla finish. Very versatile as a serious scent during the winter. Super long lasting with nice projection so you don't need to use much. Fun glass bottle with a pattern that helps to hide fingerprints.

Pleasant sweet & spiciness, but nothing amazing

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This is a pleasant smelling fragrance, but it is not groundbreaking in any way. I’d say it smells 85% the same as the Uomo Born in Roma Intense flanker. I know this concentration is a Parfum but I did not get more longevity or sillage from this one. It’s a little sweeter than the intense, and maintains the same DNA as the rest of the line, but it’s not their best offering. I’d wear this one on a cooler day in the evening, and that’s about it so it’s not the most versatile. It’s a bit redundant if you own the OG, Intense, or even Coral Fantasy. But it’s very different from Yellow Dream or Green Stravanganza. It has an almost bubblegum sweetness that tries to mesh with the spicy woodiness but comes up just a bit short. Not bad though if this one is your only one from this line.

Cat Magnet

Great smell. Went out and public and immediately noticed women all over me. Makes me feel like Squidward. Packaging was great, in good condition. Bottle looks clean and stuff.

New favorite scent

Love how nice this looks and the packaging is so sleek. I also love the smell. It smells amazing and it actually lasts all day. I highly recommend and will certainly be buying in the future. Thanks Influenster!

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] The best parfum I’ve ever used. Everything from the packaging, to the bottle and the smell of the fragrance is superb. This fragrance is unique and versatile. 100% recommended

Born in Roma’s cooler, older sister

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Extradose is a deeper, richer take on the original Born in Roma. It trades the fresh, youthful vibe of the original for warm vanilla, woods, and a more seductive edge. Compared to Coral Fantasy (fruitier) and Yellow Dream (zestier), Extradose is the boldest and most long-lasting—perfect for nights out or cooler weather.

New favorite

I wasn’t sure what to expect from Valentino Uomo Born in Roma Extrait, but it completely won me over. The scent is warm, smooth, and has this deep, slightly sweet vibe that feels super sophisticated without trying too hard. I get compliments every time I wear it. It lasts all day on my skin, and the projection is strong enough to get noticed without being overpowering. What I love most is how versatile it is—I’ve worn it during the day, for date nights, even to events, and it just works. The packaging also adds to the whole experience—the box feels luxe, and the bottle itself is sleek and masculine, with just the right amount of edge. It’s definitely earned a spot in my regular rotation

Eye-catcher

Valentino Born in Roma Extradose is a bold, long-lasting scent with rich vanilla & amber notes. Its projection allowed me to get many compliments.

Safe but not unique

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Valentino Uomo Extradose is not a bad scent by any means, but it lacks the character that would make it stand out. The fragrance has a spicy-sweet profile with a touch of roughness, but it feels somewhat bland overall. While the scent is pleasant, it doesn’t offer much complexity or depth. In terms of performance, the sillage is moderate—you’ll notice it, but it doesn't project too far. However, it does leave a nice, subtle trail. Longevity is quite impressive; one application can easily last through the day, making it reliable in that regard.

Lavender worth a try

This was a product provided to me by Influenster. Valentino Uomo Born in Roma Extradose opens with a gust of soft musks and herbal lavender essence. It has a very Spa like quality, almost steamy. Incredibly strong, I recommend to spray this sparingly for the best experience. It is marketed towards men because of that musk however, as woman, I would enjoy this on a cozy or relaxing day. As a lover of lavender I get that subtle sweetness that I find suitable to my taste. Give this one a sniff
