| MESSAGE BY SYLVIE |
| Hi PE-ladies, I like this fine fragrance. It's not a spectacular or loud perfume, but it smells beautiful and pleasant. Hard to describe. Unfortunately I cannot compare it with another well known fragrance. Staying power is excellent. It's a strong and elegant, unique floral scent. Not very fruity (no modern, delicious, edible smell). Refined, feminine, sophisticated and mature. Classy. In a good way "cool". No girly-sweet-fruity-vanilla-fun-fragrance (which I like). No ozonic/marine/aquatic smell (which I hate). I think it's a nice fragrance for elegant women. - Valentino by Valentino for Women.
Year Introduced: 1977/86.
Scent Type: Floral - Fruity.
"Valentino is the signature fragrance from the legendary Italian couturier known only as Valentino. Launched in 1977, Valentino's first fragrance is referred to today as "classic" Valentino.
The scent of Valentino is at once assertive yet feminine, like the best of Valentino's couture designs. A sumptuous floral heart of jasmine, gardenia, and tuberose is brightened with distinctive, fresh notes of melon, peach, and tangerine, while a soft base of iris, sandalwood, and vetiver finishes the chic composition. The fragrance is packaged in a vibrant shade of lipstick red, known in the fashion world as Valentino Red.
Versatile and multifaceted, Valentino is a sophisticated scent designed to glide easily from luncheons to dinners with impeccable style. "©
