Valentina

2011

Soft Italian femininity with an earthy undertone — pretty, polarizing, polished.

The take

What works

  • Tuberose-strawberry-amber blend that's pretty without being saccharine
  • Soft and feminine without going full powder
  • Sensitive-nose friendly — won't trigger headaches

Trade-offs

  • Performance is intimate — sits close, fades fast
  • Discontinued and increasingly hard to source at retail
