Years ago I used to bath in Very Valentino, until the moment when it was discontinued. This one reminds me of it, especially from the middle stage on the skin onward. The opening is very citrus-y, which differs from Very Valentino. All of you who used to like Very Valentino, give this a go.

I really liked it a lot-it does have similarities to Green Tea which I owned and went through whole bottle of it in no time because it doesn’t last. This is richer, spicier, better blended, sophisticated version. Very nice for casual scent, and if you want to smell casual and expensive lol

Super citrusy on me but with enough of a hint of green/white florals not to make me smell like pine sol, lol. 🙂 The citrus came on like a freight train, blew by and then sort of hung in the air but while I got the magnolia and alot of tea up close, never really got the rose notes coming through- not sure if its my chemistry or the other notes were a little overwhelming. I love ambrette and could catch a hint of it under everything but for me the balance was much more to the citrusy/tea side, like I literally could have been having a cup of tea and just catching a whiff of it as I squeezed my lemon into it, lol. I actually really liked this scent though as for me it had some staying power and it felt fresh and crisp. It might be a nice pick-me-up on a grey winter day.

I mixed the Donna Rosa with Tom Ford Orchid Soleil. The two fragrances seem to balance one another. The Rosa becomes more seductive and the Orchid becomes fresher. They seemed to smell both more lovely and sophisticated in a fresh sort of way. The silliage is not great but the longevity was about five hours on me. I think I will mix the two again for a soft and fresh daytime fragrance.

On me, this is very citrusy/fresh spicy. I kind of feel like a household cleaning product when wearing this. Lemon Pledge comes to mind. Disappointed, Valentino frag’s are usually a like or even a love for me, but this one’s a pass for me. Soft sillage, not very good on longevity.

They said it is a fantastic delicious smell. So the first chance I had I bought it. So far very pleased and I am even very happy about the fact that it only comes in one size : 125ml (seems a lot but you will use it till the end). I cannot stop using it as a every day perfume. So fresh (lemon, ginger) and light, very long lasting (you have to cream your body every day with a hydrating cream otherwhise your skin eats up any perfume). I still smell it at night.
I can only say: Buy it! It is so worth its money. It is not a perfume you start using and ends up half empty on your shelf. You will finish it until the last drop.
P.S. A tip for every perfume: You have to cream your body every day with a hydrating cream otherwhise your skin eats up any perfume.

I was so ready to love this after smelling it in the store. I am hyper sensitive to smell, so I usually won’t try it on my skin unless I’m planning on going straight home, or I grab a sample to try at home. Well, I’m home now and I’m extra disappointed.
At first spray I was blown away by the lime! Deliciously bright and juicy. And then… That smell of hospice. I’m not sure what is causing it, but it smells like old people at a care home. I’m so upset.

Gorgeous. But it doesn’t last more than one hour. What a pity Valentino!

I’m in love with the color of this beautiful transparent shade in the gorgeous bottle with the light streaming through the multifaceted cuts of the glass. It reminds me of the light washes of blue discovered while experimenting with watercolor pigments and water washes.
I’m still sampling the perfume…. love it so far, just waiting to see how long this wears on my skin. This scent is clean, approachable, aquatic — but in a light pure way, soft, and whispers rather than shouts your presence. It has an almost green tea-like essence and quality about it, as if you are steeping a favorite tea while sitting in a garden chair. This has an outdoorsy, peaceful quality to it. It resonates with yoga, a connected sense of simpole reverence. I really love this scent. it is unassuming, but yet – is extremely powerful… just like the beautiful color chosen for the designer bottle and fluid color. This is a light wash of a rich jewel. It is like a beam of a light house — cutting through any hesitation – and shining “the truth” in a way that is easy on the eyes – and lungs…. but definitely lets you know that you have experienced first hand – “the TRUTH”.
I’m wearing this now, determinining if this will be a new “Signature” scent.
If so, this will be a fragrance that will hold a position which is its own blend. Something for days when “less is more”…. but also – when I’m wanting to create a gentle and approachable spiritual awareness… rather than wearing a fragrance that conjures up the overly heavy and heady 1980’s fragrances.
This is the opposite of a cloying and overly dominant fragrance.
This leaves someone wanting to move in close for a hug –and to be in your presence. It is a breath of fresh air in a world of fragrances that sometimes “say too much”.
Simplicity is sometimes the most direct path.
A lack of clutter – allows you to move forward without distraction.
Feng Shui – Wind and Water….a soft breeze directs the path.
This is a new genre of fragrance.
I really LOVE THIS!
Wow!
———
I love this so far —
Now for longetivity with wear. Eight hours is my requirement — I’m waiting now! At four hours, this is fabulous!
If this remains good a total of at least eight hours – this may be my next “Signature”!

I smelled this the other day and I couldn’t stop thinking about it. I was in the store to buy Gucci Bloom Acqua di Fiori but I decided to call it off since this one mesmerized me so much. That night, I even dreamt about it in my sleep. Today I went to buy it and I’m SO pleased. It really reminds me of the Green Tea/Honey Drops body cream by Elizabeth Arden. So similar.

Walked in to my favorite perfume shop saw this green juice on the top shelf on top of all those colorful valentino bottles, sprayed once and oh! in love at the first sniff, my spring mood awakened!
Days after, there I was on the way to Northern Luxembourg for spring weekend get away to Le Château d’Urspelt, was a beautiful clear sunny day, the roof of the car was opened, the sun kissed our skin, passed miles and miles of meadows on both side of the road, birds flying high to the mountain trees, the smell of fresh air, the smell of fresh cutted grass, the smell of spring!, the smell of Rosa Verde *deep sigh of pleasure* hhhhmmmmm…. if freedom have a smell, Rosa Verde could be just that… it’s joy full, it’s refreshing, it’s happiness!
Fresh lime sorbet, the zestiness stays subtle on skin, it has this cooling & relaxing effect on me everytime it passes my nose, it makes me feel happy. Fantastic smell on a hot day!
I am lucky that it sticks on skin well, sillage is good for little more than just few hours then it went subtle and stay close to the skin, only need re-spray 1 pump once during the day for refreshment and by the end of the day it did not disappeared completely, there were still trace of it even just little bit before I shower in the evening. for me this is a plus point considering it’s only an EDT.
So much love for Rosa Verde. I thought I would never came across Valentino again but now… never say never…
Got 125ml on discount for only €57, bought 2 bottles straight away before the discount was finished *satisfied smile*

I love to drink mate tea, but i realized i am not a big fan of it as a perfume note. I think, in fragrances, it smells too masculine to my taste. In the case of Rosa Verde, the bergamot amplified this feeling. The rose and the magnolia are not enough to feminize this fragrance.
It is not a bad scent, don’t get me wrong, it is just not my cup of tea. Apart from that, i think The Vert & Bigarade from L‘Occitane en Provence has a nicer mate note.
I only recommend Rosa Verde to women who like unisex or very citrusy fragrances. Or soapy perfumes.
Rosa verde is not your usual floral fruity gourmand that dominate the shelves these days, but it is not unique either. There are many fresh fragrances out there that smell similar to it.
urish – :
It’s quite floral and rose with green notes. This green for me seems little bit synthetic and have bit gourmand sweet-ish quality. Ginger is there, but not overwhelming, it only adds mood. After about hour rose fades to background it starts to slightly remind tea. It’s fresh, warm, inoffensive. Modern, but not loud. Not overly complicated, but different. This perfume asks to be in nature, or at least to keep window wide open in office. Great for summer and spring. Overall there is Valentino vibe. In general I see this perfume for woman 20 up to maybe 40, but if it fits then wear in any age.
NUBENUMEPHOSE – :
This is a fresh, green and soapy scent. It’s a kind of fresh out from the shower-scent. I find it lovely for day-time wear during spring-summer.
It is very dissimilar to the original donna. So much so that I’m not quite sure why they didn’t just make this a new perfume under a new name.
The mate is strong already from the beginning, so is the bergamot and the ginger. The petitgrain, rose and musk mallow fill in after a while, but they stay much weaker than the mate, bergamot and ginger. The mixture ends up reminding me of lime and soap.
For a clean-type of scent, it is actually quite strong. I can detect it easily from 40 cm away after spraying it once. It looses a lot of its strength within a few hours, but stays noticeable for a full day.

NICE mixture between citruses and spices!
Usually I find spices more often in wintery heavy base perfumes, but really rarely in summery fresh fragrance and I like it!! Makes the perfume special!
The opening is very zesty, when it dries down bergamot starts to be the prominent note, but the sour lime is always there!
nickolai.gon4arov – :
The combinations of the top notes smell like lime to me. There is a soft, petally rose in the background. As the top notes dissipate, a green tea scent comes to the surface, still with delicate rose in the background. I love the scent and development, but it completely disappeared within 2 hours.

A very refreshing and zesty fragrance. Something different to wear during hot summer (if we get it here upnorth this year). I smell a very strong bergamote and petitgrain in the opening, very little of rose despite the name, and strong mate base.
Very simple yet strong projection and an enjoyablescent in general

Just tried this at Nordstrom… I like it it’s going to be my July/August scent.. first it’s green tea notes , and it had me at that..
