Valentino Uomo Born In Roma Yellow Dream Valentino 2021

There it was, this new Valentino, the yellow dream of those born in Rome or whatever they wanted to tell us with the name of the fragrance.
The yellow could describe the fruity juicy pineapple and tangerine. The fragrance itself is not really surprising, it seems very unexciting with adaptations of known scents. A bit of a mix of some hypes of the past year(s). I tested it in an office environment in spring-like temperatures. However, it was perceived as pleasant by the ladies I interviewed. Probably because I confront them more often with really polarizing fragrances and on some days I can work completely undisturbed in my office, because more sensitive noses prefer to present their concerns on a more olfactory suitable day. For me, it was not very changeable, does not challenge, which need not be a bad thing. Vanilla adds the sweetness and is already a bit chewy and sticky for me with the fruit mix. like a cocktail at the wrong time of day in summer. But is definitely a matter of taste. I can hardly relate to cedar. Personally, I would have liked a much stronger hint of gingerbread and the oriental finish. Because exactly that had made me curious, how the game around gingerbread, pineapple and tangerine could end.
I will wear it again when the opportunity arises. Maybe with a little more distance to Christmas, when you have the typical gingerbread smell still too present
