About This Perfume
Valentino Eau de Parfum comes across as fresh grapefruity flowers with powdery soft sweetness. It opens with grapefruit and magnolia, moves into orange blossom, mimosa and violet leaf and settles on heliotrope, orchid and rice. It leans feminine, though anyone can wear it.
This eau de parfum works across all four seasons and is a daytime scent. It suits date nights. Released in 2009.
In the community's experience it lasts a solid half day on skin, and projects to about arm's length.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: anyone after something floral and romantic for date nights.
- Sample first if: floral is new territory for you.
- Skip if: you dislike fruity fragrances.
Around $81.
