About This Perfume
Dolce&Gabbana The One for Men Eau de Parfum smells like sweet orange blossom with lavender-wood warmth. It opens with bergamot, tarocco orange and basil, moves into orange blossom, french lavender and french clary sage and settles on amber, Australian sandalwood and cedarwood. It leans masculine, though anyone can wear it.
This eau de parfum is best in spring, fall and winter and is easy to wear day or night. A good pick for the office and date nights. Released in 2015.
Wearers report that it lasts a solid half day on skin, and projects to about arm's length.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: anyone after something gourmand and sweet for the office.
- Sample first if: sweet is new territory for you.
- Skip if: you dislike spicy fragrances.
Around $175.
