Setup, Compatibility & Care
This section outlines how to get the most from your Valentino Born in Roma Extradose Parfum and ensure its longevity.
Initial Setup (First Use)
- Unbox Carefully: Remove the bottle from its packaging, inspecting for any damage.
- First Spray: For the very first use, you may need to 'prime' the pump by spraying a few times into the air until a consistent mist appears.
Skin Compatibility
- Patch Test Recommended: If you have sensitive skin or are new to fragrances, apply a tiny amount to a small, inconspicuous area of skin (e.g., inner forearm) 24 hours before full use. Check for any redness, itching, or irritation.
- Avoid Irritated Skin: Do not apply fragrance to broken, inflamed, or recently shaved skin.
- Layering: This fragrance can be layered with unscented lotions or body washes to enhance longevity. Avoid layering with other strong scents, as this can create a clashing aroma.
Product Care & Storage
- Store in a Cool, Dark Place: Heat, light, and humidity can degrade the fragrance over time, altering its scent and reducing its lifespan. A closet or drawer is ideal.
- Keep Upright: Store the bottle upright to prevent leakage and preserve the atomizer mechanism.
- Keep Cap On: Always replace the cap tightly after each use to prevent evaporation and protect the atomizer from dust.
- Avoid Extreme Temperatures: Do not leave the fragrance in direct sunlight, in a hot car, or in excessively cold environments.
- Handle with Care: The bottle is glass and can break if dropped. Handle gently.
