{"product_id":"valentino-donna-born-in-roma-intense","title":"Valentino Donna Born in Roma Intense","description":"\u003cp\u003eDonna Born in Roma Intense is Valentino's boldest feminine statement in the Born in Roma collection — launched in 2023 and created by Amandine Clerc-Marie and Honorine Blanc as a \"bewitching, magnetic, and floral couture fragrance designed for those who live intensely, passionately, and with a touch of extravagance.\" It was launched in 2023 as the intensified flanker to the original 2019 Donna Born in Roma, dialing up the sensuality and depth with a focus on vanilla and jasmine rather than the blackcurrant-forward brightness of its predecessor. The opening is an immediate, enveloping wave of bourbon vanilla and amber lifted by bergamot and blackcurrant accord — warm, creamy, almost molten in its sweetness, with a honeyed richness that skips the fresh citrus pause and goes straight to the heart. The heart reveals a powerful and sensual trio of jasmine — indolic, luminous, and unmistakably bold — creating a floral intensity that some find intoxicating and others find polarizing. The base becomes infinitely sensual with benzoin resin, amplifying the magnetic vanilla into extravagance — a warm, resinous, almost amber-glaze finish that clings to skin and fabric with exceptional longevity. Reviewers report it lasting the whole day on pulse points and lingering on jackets days later. The fragrance was awarded \"Fragrance of the Year – Women's Luxury\" by the Fragrance Foundation in 2024. Community comparisons most often land on YSL Libre Intense, the original Donna Born in Roma, and Gucci Bloom Profumo di Fiori, though this is decidedly sweeter, warmer, and more vanilla-dominant than any of them. The Intense version is often seen as more polarizing than the original, appealing to those who crave a richer, more complex olfactory experience. A definitive evening fragrance that rewards confidence — not a safe blind buy if you're sensitive to indolic jasmine or sweet amber, but a decant is exactly how to find out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eScent Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTop: Bourbon Vanilla, Amber, Bergamot, Blackcurrant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMiddle: Jasmine (trio of jasmine flowers)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBase: Benzoin Resin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBest For\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFall, winter, and evening wear.
