Valentino Donna Born In Roma Extradose (Parfum, 2025): Cassis Sparkle, Rum Heart & Extra-Dose Vanilla
A darker, plusher spin on the Donna line, Extradose sharpens the fruity opening, pours a rum accord through the middle, and lands on an extra dose of vanilla with warm amber nuances. Officially framed as floral-ambery and launched in 2025. Valentino+1
Fragrance Notes (official + consensus)
Top: Cassis/Blackcurrant
Heart: Rum accord
Base: Vanilla (extra dose), warm amber/woody nuances. Valentino+1
What It Smells Like
A juicy blackcurrant pop opens bright and slightly tart, quickly wrapped by a liquor-like rum that feels plush and evening-ready. The dry-down is creamy vanilla—richer and more addictive than the regular Donna flankers—polished by a soft amber/woody glow. Fragrantica+1
Who Is It For?
If you love fruity-vanilla profiles with a boozy accent and want something smoother and moodier than the core Donna releases, this hits a sweet spot for date nights and dressed-up outings. Fragrantica
When to Wear
Best in autumn/winter and evenings; the rum-vanilla warmth blossoms in cool air. Works in AC for glam daytime, too. Fragrantica
