Valentino

If you like sweeter scents and are looking for a fragrance suitable for winter/evening use, this one is a winner for you! I've always liked Valentino's fragrances, and my go-to has been Born in Roma Donna (original). So this new release arrived at the right place and got good use! The scent definitely has vanilla and plum. I also found out that its heart notes are osmanthus and leather. So it's a somewhat deeper fragrance, which I think suits evening or winter well. Of course, I've also worn it during the day if I was in the mood. The scent lasts well, and for me, a sign of a quality fragrance is this scenario: I sprayed the fragrance in the morning and only went to work out in the evening. When sweating, the perfume scent rises again even though I no longer smelled it on myself in the afternoon. This situation also happened with this perfume! 👏🏼 The perfume bottle is beautiful and practical, typical for Valentino's Born in Roma line. The spray works well and dispenses the product appropriately. I don't give the fragrance 5 stars because it is *not, in my opinion,* the best fragrance ever made. But surely for someone it is, and I thought this one was excellent! 🥰 (video/photo coming later with the review!) #lykotestpilot #valentino #lykoreview

I have tested Born in Roma Purple Melancholia Eau de Parfum for about four weeks, and it is a scent that truly makes an impression. For me, who has difficulty finding perfumes as scents often change a lot on my skin, I was curious to see how this would develop over time. This is a rich and sophisticated scent that absolutely does not feel cheap. It opens fruity and warm, then develops into a deeper and creamy vanilla base. On my skin, it becomes quite intense, which makes me prefer to use it sparingly – 1-2 sprays are plenty. However, what is very good is that it lasts a long time, which shows how good the quality is. The bottle is incredibly beautiful and feels luxurious, which elevates the whole experience. The scent lasts long and suits both day and evening, but perhaps especially when you want to feel a little extra dressed up. An elegant perfume for you who like deep, warm, and expressive scents. #lykotestpilot #valentino

I’ve been #lykotestpilot for #valentino Purple Melancholia for a few weeks now! My all-time favorite perfume is otherwise Valentino’s Green Stravaganza, I’m very fond of jasmine. So it was really fun to try a new Valentino! And let’s put it this way. If Green Stravaganza is the perfect everyday perfume, then Purple Melancholia is the perfect weekend perfume! This one feels more feminine and floral, the vanilla stands out and gives that cozy feeling. With Green Stravaganza, many sprays were needed, but with this one 1-2 sprays are enough. And I find that this one lasts longer. I really like the perfume, but I don’t think it tops Green Stravaganza after all. But sometimes you want a change, especially on days when something special happens. Then I will choose this bottle first. My husband’s rating: “It’s good but a bit heavy. A bit musky. It smells nice, but it’s not the best you’ve had. Maybe not one for the club, but for nicer or calmer occasions.”
