Thank you for being honest. It's why we watch

This is my first Valentino scent and I fell in love with it! It performs great off of me. I needed to get some spring and summer scents I grabbed CAHSEE and this one just popped for me! Plus there’s ladies out there who are serious about their coffee and I know they’ll love this!

No way!?

Dad came home with a bottle of this stuff randomly and gave it to me and man this is a really nice scent it’s not like anything I currently have

Was at Sephora with my wife and seen this one and also Born in Roma… She liked the Born in Roma (me too) but I liked this one a little bit more..Born in Roma was a little more floral vs this one which is that Classic Valintimo scent with a more modern shower gel scent. I really like this one and hope they consider an intense version later…It’s not a projector scent at all and easy to think it dies out but what happens is the scent stays on you but your nose becomes blind… If they make an intense version then it will probably fill a room with projection that last, I’d most definitely get me a bottle of it again and most definitely buy an intense version if they make it. Don’t judge it by other people’s opinion because everyone has a scent they want to use (me personally) and all of these Valintimo colognes seem to follow a similar base and stray off with something a little different… If you like Valintimo and have any other versions (I most certainly do) and this one is a clean shower gel scent with that classic creamy/powdery dry down. Hope this helps

got this one in almost 2 weeks ago and I gotta agree! I honestly feel that this one is a layering fragrance. It just needs something to boost itself up. Not a bad smell just slightly below average

I wasn’t expecting much from this fragrance. This review has confirmed my thoughts. I’m not a fan of this whole line though so I was expecting less than people who like the line.

Valentino keeps on putting out bombers nice sweet scent but still masculine this gonna be my summer scent for sure

Probably gonna wait till I can test this one out for sure

Everyone I've seen review this says it's mid. I'll get to it eventually, but I'm in no rush.

I wear Dior EDP daily, and wanted a new scent for the summer besides the nautica that i use in the really hot months. This scent is amazing and very unique and i highly recommend it!

@@LBenn302Either way, Dior changed their formular and it is commonly accepted in the community that the latest edition is far inferior to the previous iterations. It used to be less powdery, (though it was powdery still) more sweet, and more dark. They toned down the violet too, such a shame. No hard feelings i was just recommending something similar, you are welcome!

@@Stsebastian8900oh ya sorry if I came across arrogant or something. I got mine about two years ago and the bottle still had a lot left. I’m not sure about the formula switch but I do enjoy the smell a lot. Their elixir was too potent and the EDT was too light. I’m not very experienced with fragrances so I appreciate the suggestion! I’m interested in learning more about them tho

I definitely didn't pick up coffee either when i had bought it.

I came from the one million elixir and I was really frustrated with the green born in Roma. It smells boring. I guess I was used to the sweet tobacco notes or something.. would recommend to anyone who wants an every day fragrance that’s not overpowering but I guess it’s not for me. “Pretty nice, but no wow factor” is the best way to describe it.

What an odd comment thread 😂

I picked up on the coffee note in The first 10 min soon as it hit the mid. Also just bought the new Burberry Hero Parfum . I bought them at the same time & been wearing them at the same time🤣🫣🤷🏼‍♂️😝 I like the combo. It’s Like smelling coffee in a wood shop,.. I think all take those 2 add some Cartier noir absolu for the smoke. Coffee cedar and cigarettes. The triple threat trifecta😆🤷🏼‍♂️

Honesty. A rare quality. Keep it coming.

Its incredible, but like yellow dream and born in roma edt it just becomes a skin scent in an hour so id only wear it at home for myself.

Great review Ash Can you please make a video of best EDT fragrances?

Sounds similar to Givenchy irresistible fresh.

I picked up a sample of this one last weekend. For some reason it reminds me of MYSLF without the heavy ambroxan note

yet another instance of ash showcasing his impeccable taste, that bebop shirt is fire

Doesn't sound like my cup of tea. And I really like Valentino Intense. Nice review as always.

lol the sarcastic build up is nuts 😂

Dang, I had high hopes for this one

The bottle design alone screams out “teenie bopper goth kid”

Sounds like you've pretty much described Very Irresistable by Givemchy, a 00s staple. Do the 2 smell similar?

Maybe an EDP or Parfum version would improve this scent...

Miami duty free for sure

Probably works like Pepe Jeans London. I like it a lot.

got mine through Neiman Marcus. I really wish they would put the entire fragrance name on the bottle, not just the house. Lasts 6 to 8 hours on my skin.

It's available in UK now I read few trusted reviews and spoke to two friends who has it and overall people say it is dissapointing Nothing special and doesn't last that long Pass for me. I personally love Valentino uomo intense And Born in Roma intense. I skip this one

Only lasts 4 hours for me, the dry down is loved by my partner , but not really anything special for me, glad I got it at a discount direct from Valentino on release day (£54.80 GBP for 100ml )

My BROTHA! Cowboy Bebop tee for the win

That’s a sick t shirt ya got there, bud.

I smelled this the 1st day it arrived here in the uk. I gotta say, i was extremely underwhelmed. Don't think i will be adding it to my collection.

got a sample of this... it's a miss as opening smells slightly sweet with a funky smelling note that i picked up... realised it must have been that coffee note, dry down is slightly better.... doesn't last too long so going to swerve a purchase of this flanker.... just writing this while watching the video and agree with this review and isn't worth considering purchasing it

Coincidentally i'm wearing a green scent right now. Fugazzi - thirsty

Ash i was wondering with shirts you wear recently its rainbow colored

Shame you’re not reviewing Ganymede with that shirt on! 👌

It's just a slightly less sweet yellow dream...thats it, nothing more, nothing less...zero coffee by the way, it's a terrible terrible release lol but it's got a green bottle I guess... wonder what's next born in roma: Blue Spectacular 😅

Reminds me of Lafayette st

Insert future video “this one has really grown on me”

I was actually pretty interested in this one when I saw the announcement for it but I think I'm going to wait until everybody gets it to get a lock in on the performance and then I'll probably end up buying a decan from eBay or from decant X but at the moment I'm a little disappointed from this initial review or first impressions rather... And my scent of the day is moustache EDP

So it performs like Yellow Dream. Got it!

Don't forget the rockstud noir that came out in this line AFTER the intense. That one is another generic waste of space.
