Another Valentino Masterpiece
Simply put, starts of fresh very mass appealing then after about 30min as it starts to dry down you get a slightly smoky accord along side the freshness which to me complements the fragrance it blends together well and is not off-putting at all.. for an EDT it lasts 5 to 6 projecting and up to 8 as a skin scent on myself.. overall I'm glad i picked it up as a fan and collector of valentino fragrances this is another masterpiece if you get the chance to grab it do it you wont be disappointed..

Absolutely Incredible
I got this at 10:05 AM as soon as it was released in store at my local Sephora. The reviews I've read on this one are the most annoying pieces of work I've ever seen, How can a fragrance be rated a 5/10 before it even drops? This community needs to grow up.

For starters, this is one of the most unique fragrances I've ever smelled. If we are talking uniqueness, especially in the Valentino BIR line, this is a 10/10. I own Coral Fantasy, and Born in Roma Intense, and this is NOTHING compared to any of the other Valentinos. Could you say it smells slightly similar to Intense? Yes. It is a similar DNA after all, but it's not the same and it's not redundant.

The opening hits you with a cozy desert like scent. Very sweet, very warm, and very comforting. It smells like a warm and sweet lavender milk. But after about 15-30 seconds it hits you, that "Fire" note and the woods that rest beneath it. Is it like Maison Margiela's By The Fireplace? No. But I can see you wearing this in the same settings as that. It smells absolutely incredible, and I can't express that enough. I almost want to purchase another bottle because I know this will sell out fast. Powdery, Sweet, Gourmand Desert, sitting right by a Fireplace. THAT is what this is.

As for longevity, it's hard to tell right now. I do get some intense projection for the first hour, but it slowly pulls in to a more intimate scent. But not a full skin scent. This is perfection for a winter night out, or a date night. Heck, even cuddled up with your loved one in the winter watching a Hallmark movie haha. I got about 6 hours of total longevity on my first wear, but it's a VERY VERY real possibility I just went nose blind because this is the type of scent that will do that to you.

All this being said, it's a limited edition, it smells remarkable, and the bottle is beautiful. If you can fork up the money, go out and buy it. You'll love it. The hate for this as of right now is completely unjustified and the community needs to get better with that. Just because you can't afford a fragrance, or personally can't justify the price, doesn't mean it's a bad fragrance. This is a beautiful masterpiece and you should make a move on it quickly.

Keep on making the world a better smelling place, my friends!

Milk Bomb
This is basically a milk bomb, something like a muhallabiyya (middle eastern milk pudding with pistachio). I dont get any smoky notes at all. It smells more like a dessert, but I don’t think its the type of dessert smell that translates well to fragrance. The milkyness tones down after a couple of hours and the lavender and soft woods are more prominent. I also think it leans more feminine than masculine.

Beautiful bottle, scent and longevity disappoint
Tested today Unfortunately not for me at all. I can hardly categorize the scent. I don't notice anything creamy. Hardly any longevity; after spraying it is gone immediately. Only the bottle looks great. I don't understand why this was also made limited edition.
Better not to have released it at all.
I applied the scent several times to be sure. Yet even after a few minutes, it was almost unnoticeable, even up close. For a fragrance in this price range, that is truly disappointing.

L'Oreal and the Infinite Sadness of this core turboslop. 2 perfumers this time, for a creamier vanillic Paradigme.

The creamy + smoky notes came across like bacon-flavored Easy Cheese (in a spray can), and the lavender felt savory-herbal.

I find this more about a milk/cream than smoke or 'fire'. A smooth & sweet lactonic scent with nice soft vanilla. It's not for me but decent

I only briefly sampled, but I thought this wasn’t half bad. It reminded me slightly of the 2014 Uomo. Kind of just a warm and fresh scent.

What I get from this scent is intense coconut, and it gets a bit milky in the dry-down. Not a big fan...

Very faded blend of bergamot, lavender & wood in the DD.
Totally weak & just not interesting.
Could be a La Rive.

You can do it, but it's definitely not necessary. Stick with the Classic. It's giving diluted mix.
