ALVIREN is an original composition by LXPERFUME, created to evoke the scent profile made famous by Valentino's Born in Roma. It is not the designer fragrance, and we never pretend otherwise — that honesty is the whole point.

The designer bottle: about $180. ALVIREN: from $34.99. Same evening, same compliments — and any two bottles ship free in the U.S.
Before you decide.
Is ALVIREN the same as Born in Roma?
No — and anyone who tells you their alternative is identical is selling you a story. ALVIREN is an original 30% extrait composition inspired by the scent profile of Valentino's Born in Roma. It lives in the same world: the character, the mood, the compliments. The bottle, the house, and the price tag are ours.
How long does it last on skin?
Six to eight hours and beyond — extrait de parfum carries 30% fragrance oil, roughly double a typical designer eau de parfum. Dry skin wears everything shorter; moisturize first and spray on pulse points.
What does it cost, honestly?
From $34.99 against roughly $180 for the designer bottle. U.S. shipping is free on any two bottles ($69.98+); single bottles ship for a flat $7.99. Thirty days to fall in love, or send it back.
