Coconut and lavender might just be my new thing

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] So Valentino has never disappoint in terms of smell the bottle. The intensity, the impression and this year they're really outdoned themselves and what surprises me the most is that this is a toilette but some how last longer as a parfum would. And I can't emphasize enough how fresh the coconut with the lavender scent is. I didn't even know that this combo would have worked so well.

A great daily driver fragrance.

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] First it starts off with a strong fresh coconut note that stands out initially. It then dries down to a clean ambery lavender that feels balanced and not too overpowering. The longevity of it is great as well. I was pretty impressed on how versatile it is as well. This is a great everyday fragrance as it has enough warmth for the winter and it’s nice and fresh to wear in warmer months. I’d definitely recommend this for anyone that needs a new daily driver scent overall a great cologne.

Sweet, bold, and modern scent that gets compliment

I really like Valentino Uomo Born in Roma Purple. It opens sweet and slightly fruity with a smooth spicy touch. After it dries down, it becomes warmer and a little creamy with a soft woody base that balances the sweetness. It smells modern, stylish, and confident. Great for nights out or cooler weather. I’ve gotten compliments, and it lasts about 6–8 hours on my skin. The purple bottle design looks clean and bold too.

A smooth, modern scent with strong presence and st

Valentino Uomo Born in Roma Purple Eau de Toilette is a bold yet smooth fragrance that stands out immediately. The initial spray is vibrant and slightly sweet with a modern edge, but it quickly settles into a warm, aromatic scent that feels sophisticated and versatile. The sillage is noticeable without being overpowering, making it perfect for evenings, dates, or special occasions. Longevity is solid for an EDT, lasting several hours on my skin. The bottle design is sleek and eye-catching, especially the purple tone that gives it a luxurious vibe. The sprayer distributes a fine, even mist, which makes application easy and controlled. Overall, it feels like great value for a designer fragrance with a unique twist.

Unique addition to the Born in Roma line

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Valentino Uomo Born in Roma Purple Melancholia is a refined and distinctive addition to the Born in Roma collection, offering a composition that feels both modern and subtly nostalgic. The fragrance opens with a vibrant touch of cardamom and coconut delivering a smooth yet noticeable spice that immediately sets a confident tone followed by this irresistible creaminess. It’s aromatic and slightly warm, creating an inviting first impression without overwhelming the senses. As the scent develops, the heart reveals a unique blend of creamy coconut and gentle lavender. The coconut introduces a soft, subtly sweet richness that feels comforting rather than tropical, adding depth and a slightly gourmand nuance. Lavender balances this sweetness with a clean, herbaceous freshness, maintaining the fragrance’s elegance and preventing it from becoming overly indulgent. In the dry-down, amberwood anchors the composition with warmth and depth, leaving a smooth, slightly resinous trail on the skin. The result is a well-rounded fragrance that transitions seamlessly from its spicy opening to its warm and inviting finish. While the projection and presence are solid, the overall longevity could be slightly stronger for a scent at this level — but the quality of the blend itself more than compensates. In the broader Born in Roma lineup, Purple Melancholia stands apart for its nuanced, aromatic profile. In contrast, offers a very different character. Coral Fantasy leans into a fruity aromatic direction with red apple, cardamom, and bergamot up top, followed by herbal sage and a warm base of tobacco and vetiver — giving it a bright, vibrant, and more immediately approachable personality. Would I keep this in rotation ? Absolutely, this is a gorgeous fragrance that hasn't been replicated out there and you will definitely stand out smelling like this.

New scent

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This fragrance have a unique scent. I honestly not a fan of cardamom but it’s totally fair. Cardamom can be a dealbreaker for a lot of people. But the packaging is phenomenal as usual. Great for everyday use, good around others but don’t expect it to blow people away.

Elegant side of coconut

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This cologne is meant for the summer. It’s a luxurious but rich, coconut scent. It reminds me of an elite tropical resort or holiday. I also love the colors on the bottle with the purple and black. The scent also lasts all day and smells even better dry.

Good overall

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Opens up with a nice coconut smell that later blends with the cardamom. On skin it reminds me of a marshmallow-like warmness. The amber really speaks to me while on skin. You’d think with the coconut, it’d be a tropical fragrance but with the addition of the cardamom, it becomes an easy everyday wear. I definitely can see someone pulling this off in any season.

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Valentino really nailed it with the “moody” vibe with purple melancholia. It’s a departure from the usual scents, opting out for a dark, jammy plum and creamy vanilla that feels intimate and expensive rather than loud.

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Purple Melancholia is a creamy coconut and aromatic lavender scent. It bears a striking resemblance to the smooth masculine DNA of Armani code, but with a much warmer, more contemporary edge. Thanks to the spicy cardamom. Despite being an EDT, the longevity is impressive, easily lasting all day and leaving a rich trail on clothes. Purple Melancholia would be perfect for evening wear.
