Perfume from a city in Italy (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

aroma

'perfume' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'a city in italy' is the wordplay.
'city in italy' becomes 'Roma' (Italian name for Rome).
'a'+'roma'='AROMA'

'from' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for aroma that I've seen before include "Distinctive scent" , "Strong smell" , "Pleasant odour" , "Agreeable odour" , "Scent - smell" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
