A 2022 men's woody aromatic from Valentino, built around a red apple and cardamom opening that turns into lavender and geranium, then dries down to tobacco leaf, patchouli and vetiver. It is the brighter, fruitier flanker to the original Born in Roma Uomo, which leans on violet and ginger. The apple-and-tobacco pairing gives it a sweet, warm character that suits evenings and cooler weather more than the office. It reads as a younger, more playful scent than the original, and closer to a sweet tobacco fragrance than a fresh one.
