Spring is in the air, and at Fragrance Fam, we're already excited about the scents that will define the warmer months of 2025. Leading our list of favorites is a remarkable new release from the perfume House of Valentino: Uomo Born in Roma Green Stravaganza.

A Stunning Spring and Summer Perfume
Released in 2024, Valentino Green Stravaganza has quickly captured our attention as possibly the best perfume for Spring 2025. This latest addition to the Born in Roma collection brings something truly unique to the table – a perfect balance of zesty freshness and rich depth that works beautifully in warm weather.
Created by master perfumers Nathalie Lorson and Olivier Cresp, this fragrance showcases their exceptional talent for creating memorable, multi-dimensional scents.
The Perfect Trio of Notes
Green Stravaganza's composition centers around just three key notes, but the simplicity is what makes it brilliant:
- Top Note: Calabrian Bergamot – The opening delivers a burst of sunshine with this premium Italian citrus note. The bergamot provides an immediate freshness that's invigorating and uplifting – perfect for those bright summer mornings.
- Middle Note: Coffee – Here's where Green Stravaganza becomes truly interesting. Rather than the usual floral heart, we get an unexpected coffee note that adds remarkable depth. Customers report it smells more like freshly ground beans than brewed coffee, giving it a natural, earthy quality rather than a sweet, gourmand effect.
- Base Note: Vetiver – The grounding base of vetiver adds a classic masculine touch that ensures the fragrance has lasting power while maintaining its fresh character throughout the day.
Why It's Perfect for Summer 2025
What makes Valentino Green Stravaganza stand out as a summer 2025 perfume contender? Several things:
- Versatility – The fresh citrus opening makes it appropriate for daytime wear, while the coffee and vetiver add enough substance for evening events.
- Uniqueness – The coffee note is unexpected in a summer fragrance, making this a conversation starter.
- Performance – Despite being fresh and green, our Fragrance Fam customers report impressive longevity and projection, especially for a summer-appropriate scent.
-
Distinctiveness – While some have drawn comparisons to YSL's popular MYSLF, especially because of the common bergamot note, Green Stravaganza has its own distinct character that sets it apart.

The feedback from our Fragrance Fam community has been overwhelmingly positive:

- Fresh white tees and jeans for everyday wear
The versatility makes it a great signature scent for the entire season.
