Valentino has launched Rock 'n Rose Pret a Porter, the sequel to Rock 'n Rose and Rock 'n Rose Couture.
Valentino Pret a Porter Eau de Toilette, inspired by the classic Rock 'n Rose fragrance, features Valentino's favorite flower, the rose. The scent has a lighthearted elegance which makes it fresh enough to wear on a daily basis.
The notes feature bergamot, blackcurrant, crispy green, cassis, rose, gardenia, muguet, orange blossom, sandalwood, orris, musk, vanilla and heliotrope…

Allure Homme contains bergamot, mandarin, citron zest, pepper, vetiver, patchouli, sandalwood, tonka bean and labdanum. The fragrance starts off with an artificial-smelling, alcohol-y and acidic accord; these opening notes are, to my nose, ugly, harsh and sour.
