When in Roma

Name: When in Roma Eau de Parfum
Brand: Duppe Scents
Availability: InStock

Duppe Scents When in Roma is an Eau de Parfum. When in Roma opens with Lavender, Ginger, and Vanilla, settles into a heart of Pink Pepper and Nutmeg, and dries down to a base of Amber, Vetiver, and Tonka Bean. Duppe Scents's When in Roma carries a Statement verdict, a vanilla-led wear.

This one keeps Born in Roma Intense's sweet vanilla-lavender backbone but trades the mineral, salty facet that makes the original distinctive for a simpler amber-vetiver base.

About

This dupe opens with the sweet vanilla-and-lavender pairing that anchors Valentino's Born in Roma Intense, given a light zing from ginger. A touch of nutmeg and pink pepper move through the heart, echoing the original's mineral, slightly salty middle stage without quite replicating its distinctive texture. The base settles into vetiver, amber and tonka bean, which lands close to the original's warm, powdery finish but with less of the smoky cashmeran depth that reviewers single out as Born in Roma Intense's signature. It's an easy, crowd-pleasing sweet fragrance in its own right, and the opening vanilla-lavender combination is genuinely recognisable, but the mineral woods that give the original its modern edge don't fully come through here.
