Born in Roma Uomo - Eau de Toilette

Musky

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Valentino! Perfect for that special man in your life for valentines day, good play on words. Overall, I think the scent is musky and woodsy and smells nice. It’s giving typical manly cologne though, there is nothing that stands out so it is a bit lackluster. It also is so strong. So if you’re sensitive to smells I don’t recommend this. I was wafting it towards me and was still overwhelmed by how strong it was. It lasted for 8 hours on my partner and kept its smell pretty intact the whole time. Love the packaging! It’s both easy to hold and it’s sleek looking. I’d say this cologne would work year round, for all the seasons!

Gods tears in a bottle

Valentino Uomo Born in Roma is one of those fragrances that doesn’t just smell good—it rewires the whole mood of your night the second it hits your skin. From the first spray, it throws out this almost electric mix of mineral freshness and violet leaf that feels like stepping into warm evening air in a city you love, dressed better than everyone else without even trying. There’s a clean, slightly salty brightness up top that instantly grabs attention, but it never feels harsh or synthetic; it’s smooth, modern, and ridiculously easy to like. As it settles, the ginger and sage start to rise, giving this energetic, slightly spicy edge that makes the fragrance feel alive and animated, like your confidence just quietly leveled up. It has that designer sexiness that works on literally any age, but there’s also a subtle character to it, a kind of understated attitude that keeps it from being just another generic mainstream scent. The dry‑down is where it really gets addictive: vetiver and woods warm everything up into this smooth, masculine base that clings to your skin and clothes in the best way. In real life, this is a date‑night and going‑out monster—something you reach for when you want compliments without smelling like you tried too hard. It projects enough to leave a trail when you walk past, lasts long enough to ride through an entire evening, and still feels comfortable and wearable, never overbearing. People talk about it as a compliment magnet, and it absolutely fits that label, but the thing that makes it special is how personal it becomes once it mixes with your skin. On paper, it sounds like a fresh, woody, slightly spicy designer. On you, it might become your signature. And honestly, this is one of those scents you can read about all day—but you won’t really get the hype until you spray it on once and catch that first whiff for yourself.

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] It smells amazing. As soon as you walk in the room you can smell this perfume. Just a little goes a long way, no need to spray it multiple times. And it lasts for a very long time.

Bright, delicious

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Clean, fresh, bright. Gifted to my boyfriend and smells soooo good on. It has a sweet/ citrus/ forest opening, and then sinks in very lovelyly to smell like skin but better. I would recommend for daytime in spring or summer, but can be an easy every day scent.

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Valentino Uomo Born in Roma EDT is fresh, smooth, and easy to like. It opens bright and slightly spicy, then dries down into a soft vanilla and woody scent that feels clean and modern. It is versatile enough for everyday wear and lasts a decent amount of time without being overpowering. Not groundbreaking, but very pleasant and crowd-friendly.

Like it

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I love this cologne! Gave it to my boyfriend, and I like it! Not very woodsy like other cologne, almost slightly sweet which I like. One con is it doesn’t have great lasting power throughout the day, especially for the price

Smells great!

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] First of all the bottle is gorgeous. It's so pretty to look at and looks great on my counter. The smell itself is very nice and can be used by everyone (I'm a woman). It's long lasting and smells better the longer it stays on. Would recommend.

Masculine and seductive scent

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This Valentino Uomo Born in Roma cologne for men smells so good! It’s a great daily signature scent, as it’s not too strong. The spiciness pairs well with the woody, early scent of the vetiver. I do not detect violet, but nevertheless it is an incredible blend that makes for a masculine scent. It lasts fairly long and I can still smell it faintly after an entire day passed. I’d recommend this as a great gift for a partner as it is an elegant and sensual scent. The bottle is also incredible, it is sleek and stylish.

Highly recommend!

I would recommend this as a gift for any man in your life! The packaging is beautiful, and high quality! The cologne lasts all day and a little goes a long way! It smells manly but not overpowering and I think is a perfect balance of scents. Can be used for everyday or special events!

Must have long lasting scent!

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] gorgeous packaging! very strong notes! i love the longevity of it! my husband sprays it in his jackets and it lasts sooo long! definitely recommend for those looking for something strong and long lasting!

A great everyday scent for men!

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Valentino Uomo Born in Roma EDT is a modern, versatile fragrance blending fresh violet leaf and ginger with sophisticated sage, settling into an earthy vetiver base. It's a stylish, confident scent with good projection and longevity.

10/10 !!!

Perfect for men. I have the girl version of it and it’s so cute to match with the bottles. The smell lasts!!!
