The fragrance

Valentino Donna Born in Roma Purple Melancholia Eau de Parfum is a moody, romantic take on Born in Roma, with ripe plum and golden osmanthus.

Launched in 2026, it opens with a rich, juicy note of plum. The heart blooms with osmanthus, an apricot-scented flower with a soft, leathery warmth. It settles into a smooth, comforting base of vanilla that ties the fruit and florals together.

  • Top: plum
  • Heart: osmanthus
  • Base: vanilla

Purple Melancholia is especially lovely in spring and fall and wears beautifully from day into evening. Fruity, floral, and softly spiced, it is an elegant signature for dinners, events, and everyday glamour. It is a striking gift for anyone who loves Valentino's couture style and a rich, plummy scent. Presented in a 3.3 oz bottle.
