The review
Worth a try. That is where Paladin lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Uomo Born In Roma Intense.
Velixir sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Uomo Born In Roma Intense's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $60 per 100ml it costs 56% less than Uomo Born In Roma Intense — the cheapest of 3 twins we can price.
Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Velixir publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.
What it's built to smell like
What it is chasing: cardamom and bergamot up top, violet and mineral notes in the middle, vetiver, amberwood and vanilla underneath — the shape of Valentino Uomo Born In Roma Intense.
Top
- cardamom
- bergamot
Heart
- violet
- mineral notes
Base
- vetiver
- amberwood
- vanilla
Cardamom and amberwood dragged over the original's cool stone, denser and far more nocturnal.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
