Ross

I believe the answer is:

aroma

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'charm present' is the definition.
'aroma' can be an answer for 'charm' (I have seen 'particular charm' mean 'aroma' so perhaps 'charm' could also mean 'aroma'). I am unsure of the 'present' bit.

'in gesta romanorum' is the wordplay.
'in' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'AROMA' can be found hidden inside 'gesta romanorum'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for aroma that I've seen before include "Agreeable odour" , "Distinctive odour" , "Test of knowledge" , "Subtle quality" , "Perfume" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
