Profumum Roma Dulcis in Fundo EDP
Description
Dulcis in Fundo is orange, lemon and creamy vanilla, a citrus dessert in a bottle. The Latin name means the sweetest comes last, and Profumum Roma, which launched it in 2001, lives up to it: tart Sicilian citrus opens like a clementine being peeled, then deepens into a buttery vanilla. Retailers compare it to a citrus pavlova; reviewers mention orange-vanilla ice pops and frosting, and one compares the middle to Grand Marnier. It is brazenly sweet, and that is the point.
Scent Character
- Sweet: 95%
Translation: almost all sweet. The citrus sharpens the opening, but vanilla carries nearly the whole wear.
Fragrance Pyramid
- Top: Sicilian Lemon, Orange
- Heart: Vanilla
- Base: Vanilla
Note: Profumum Roma keeps this one deliberately simple: citrus and vanilla. The vanilla runs from the heart into the drydown.
Performance
Longevity: Moderate. It opens strong and then softens into a close, sweet bubble.
Sillage: Moderate early, then light.
Projection: Arm's length in the first hour, then near the skin.
An honest note: reviews are mixed on staying power. Most love the scent, but at least one reviewer found it too light. Try it on your own skin before buying the full bottle.
Best Occasions & Season
More versatile than most vanillas: the citrus makes it work in warm weather, and the vanilla suits Fall and Winter. Good for relaxed days, evenings and casual nights out. Unisex. Skip it if you dislike very sweet scents.
