About This Perfume
Velvet Zafferano Limited Edition by Dolce&Gabbana is a Oriental Woody fragrance for women and men. This is a new fragrance. Velvet Zafferano Limited Edition was launched in 2025. The nose behind this fragrance is Aurélien Guichard. Top note is Saffron; middle note is Tobacco Leaf; base notes are Patchouli, Labdanum, Vanilla and Amber. Dolce&Gabbana Beauty celebrates the spirit of Ramadan with an exclusive campaign, unveiling a limited-edition duo that embodies luxury and tradition. This special release features the Velvet Zafferano fragrance and a matching scented candle, both designed as exquisite collector’s items that capture the magic of the season. Inspired by the legendary saffron—often hailed as the "king of spices"—this collection pays homage to its deep-rooted cultural significance. The limited-edition Velvet Zafferano fragrance and candle are encased in opulent packaging adorned with intricate golden arabesques, reflecting the richness of Middle Eastern artistry. Saffron, revered as "Oro Rosso" (Red Gold) in Italy, has long been a symbol of prestige, having been introduced to Sicilian culture in the 13th century. Master perfumer Aurélien Guichard highlights its warm, spicy character in Velvet Zafferano, blending it seamlessly with the deep smokiness of golden tobacco leaves. The composition unfolds with the earthy depth of patchouli, the velvety sweetness of vanilla, and the luminous warmth of amber and cistus labdanum, resulting in a mesmerizing, multi-faceted scent. Housed in an elegant black lacquered bottle embellished with golden arabesque motifs, Velvet Zafferano exudes sophistication. A velvet-trimmed cap and an engraved golden nameplate add to its prestige, while the fragrance is presented in a sumptuous velvet-lined box, making it a truly exceptional piece. Available in limited numbers.
