Romam it poeta retro; intra videtur femina qua nemo est melior (6)
I believe the answer is:
optima
(Other definitions for optima that I've seen before include "Conditions producing the best possible results" , "Points at which conditions are most favourable" , "Ideal conditions" .)
I've seen this clue in The Times.
