Valentino opens on green notes, bright peach and basil, lifted by lemon. The heart unfolds hyacinth, lily-of-the-valley, jasmine, rose, cyclamen and carnation, a white floral bouquet that stays present. Oakmoss, musk, civet and cedar carry the scent into its base. Wear it on spring days, when the air turns soft again.
