Hello chad when is the full review on this scent coming out ???

It smells so happy and that’s why I bought it. It smells like you aren’t trying so hard. It smells sweet but a DIFFERENT kind of sweet, kind of sporty fresh vibe too but it smells very energetic.

looking forward to trying this one! BIR Coral Fantasy is absolutely fantastic. Beautiful opening, a great dry-down, and lasts a good 8 hrs on me!

Valentino retains the crown for the "worst named flankers" division. Pretty impressive how long they've kept it now.

Haha yeah 🤣 😆

I'll probably pass on this one. I do wear Valentino born in Roma intense to work and it's one of my most complimented fragrances. A co worker of mine had this smile on her face like she was in intoxicated with the smell as she said, "you really smell so good." It's worked but on other people it can smell different.

Excellent first impressions review of Born In Roma Green Stravaganza. Yes, I agree with you this Valentino Uomo line I've never been impressed with except for the very formulation of the OG. I'll try this one bc it seems different from all the rest and also try it out with some vanilla frags I have. 🌟👍🙏❤️

Ive mixed this with lucky 1million by paco rabonne and omg its so good

I'm in Canada too and I smelled i both on strip and on skin. It's....fine. For me personally, even as a mass appealing designer frag, I think it's neither here or there. It'll be nice for the spring, with that bit of freshness. Disclosure: I've never been a huge Valentino fan. Their drydowns on my skin have always been so unremarkable. Love the bottle though.

@@ChadSecrets I see, thanks! I asked because the BIR Intense is a EDP while this is EDT

My guess as to the name and the green theme is, since star anise seems to be a main note, it could be playing off the idea of absinthe, since that’s a green spirit with the main flavors being a licorice, anise flavor

I can smell the coffee and Bergamont in this one, but no star anise I think I much would prefer and grab the coral fantasy. I like the smell of that one better than this one.

Oh my! You win

Loved the original Valentino oumo intense so a few years later I rebought it not knowing it had been reformulated. First thing that caught my attention was that it now had a cap and different atomizer. What a let down it was, went from a deep strong and complex fragrance to a one dimensional sweet shell of its former self with no projection or longevity. Bottle is still pretty much full over a year later 👎
