PowderyWhat does Valentino Uomo Born in Roma Ivory smell like?
Most voters pick fall, spring and winter, with summer well behind. It is chosen mostly for leisure and daily wear, though some voters place it at work or in the evening. Its longevity and sillage are rated moderate.
Bergamot gives a fresh opening, with Provençal lavender at the heart. The base brings firewood, fire and smoky notes. Beneath the fresh, floral side sit a sweet, gourmand, spicy warmth and a woody, powdery floor. Diesel D and Parfums de Marly Pegasus share a close profile.
