This classical, intensive, feminine aroma belongs to the group of aldehyde-floral fragrances. D&G is the first fragrance of Dolce&Gabanna. The composition is based on contrasts: sweet and bitter, feminine and masculine. The top notes are aromatic-citrusy and include mandarin, bergamot, basil and aldehydes – a rather strong opening. The heart is feminine floral created of jasmine, floral-spicy carnation, sweet orange blossom and lily. Silky sandal wood in the base is complemented with the sweet and balsamic notes of vanilla, Tonka and musk. This fragrance is recommended for evening wear and special occasions. It was created in 1994.

The nose behind this fragrance is IFF.

This is probably the strongest eau de toilette in existence. I wore it last night to a club and felt I owned the evening. It gives me an incredible confidence boost, in part because i know i can't be drowned out by other scents. The opening is intensely soapy and can knock you sideways BUT stay with it as the notes explode. If it were a woman, she'd be strong, sexy and decadent. Sophisticated, playful, self-assured and a little wicked. She wouldn't be for the faint-hearted and although not always liked, always admired. Like no other.

I received this as a gift couple of years ago.
When I sprayed it on myself I thought they gave me something fake or bottle was including a cleaning material or some sort of chemical instead of a perfume!! Later my taste about it developed and started to give me a luxurious feeling, it was smelling expensive, different and arrogant to me!
If you really want to smell different, you can try this, but if you feel yourself uncomfortable with harsh citrus aldehydes and cannot wait them to develop on your skin, then skip this one. I only enjoy smelling it in the bottle.

Sharp aldehydic citrus vanilla after-shave. Another D&G fragrance who got lot of credits and I can't understand why. It has a weird smell, no creaminess, no softness. A few years ago it was all the hype here. Ok, it was new and that's all. I've never found it sexy IMO even if men like it or simply got used to it like they get used to trends in general. This one smells to me like a wannabe: I wannabe sexy, I wannabe modern, I wanna be sophisticated, I wanna be fashionable...
Nothing of that. Actaully it smells quite cheap to me (or on my chemistry)

I have it already after I try it on very luxury & glamorous alot powerful and gorgeous staying power wonderful sillage everything on it's extremely feminine....

Very clean but also sexy alluring scent without trying too hard. I sprayed it and my BF walked by and said "ooh smells like soap". I get a heavy touch of basil in the beginning and I find it energizing. After the dry down it becomes much softer but I can still sense the basil tone, on me it is a floral herb like soapy clean scent with a hint of alluring spice. I like it a lot, but I might save it for when I am a bit older.

Sexy, Passionate, but please don't wear it if you're under, let's say, 25. You'll smell like you're trying to hard to get men if you know what I mean. If you are a more mature woman, it will smell great: jasmine, basil and rose are very well blended in this exquisite perfume

I had it so many times, and I love this fragrance. Is luxurious, clean and soapy, but also strong and long lasting.
The bottle is beautiful, so this is one of my favorite perfumes

Never in my life would I have ever thought that a fragrance of this kind would sweep me off my feet. Normally I dislike powdery scents, but D&G is so much more than baby powder.

This fragrance is such an interesting combination of both sweet and sharp. The aldehydes aren't as strong and soapy as in Chanel No.5, rather they are softer and more delicate. If Marilyn Monroe had said she wore only a few drops of D&G to bed then I would've understood her completely. This scent is so incredibly feminine and sensual.

In my opinion, D&G defines sexy. Whenever I wear this I feel to urge to crawl up in bed next to my lover and whisper sweet nothings into each others ears. Because the scent is so soothing and warm it also does wonders in settling nerves or anxiety, meaning it would be perfect for those job interviews and first dates.

I love that this perfume is memorable. It's not something that people will forget the smell of when you leave the room. The lasting power is also fantastic, I can still smell it 7 hours after applying.

If you're looking for something clean-smelling, versatile, seductive and classy, this is my recommendation.

I agree with PimentoSugars review. Its a great scent for office and city wear. Not casual, its sofisticated and imtemporal. It says "You can come near at your own risk..."

Great lasting power and syllage, it does not leave a trail on me, which I find great. Smells Luxurious!

I will like to add that the staying power is about 12 hours on my skin!
03/10/09 07:09:35
I totally agree with rheea oana and LadyJedi.It is too much,too sharp,it intoxicates me.
Maybe I sprayed too much,but I didn't like even the base notes,that are more acceptable.
For me,there is nothing classy or feminine about this fragrance.It's a boting one,unfortunately.
03/09/09 09:30:18
It´s very glamorous and modern. I`ll buy it again. And I do not buy usually twice if it´s not so special.
02/21/09 11:53:30
 
The opening notes are like a punch in the face - sharp and suffocating. The drydown is more agreeable but still spicy and heavy. On me it smells like some kind of herbal soap and makes me feel really old. Not my cuppa tea...

Sharp, bright, memorable...this is a sophisticated perfume, with an immediate hit of aldehydes meeting green notes, muted florals and a restrained sense of citrus. Herbal notes for a city woman, sleek and cool and clean.

This scent is not warm, and it's really not casual; on me it is impressive and works really well for professional image, where being attractive helps, but smelling of boudoir or cookies will just get you funny looks!

Plus, I admit, I love the suede red box - that makes me smile!

Bold, in your face, strong and certainly not shy!!
I wanted so much to like this fragrance, but unfortunately it's just too much...to much of everything, strong flowers like jasmine,rose and lily that mixed together with delicate carnation and lily-of-the-water are too dificult to wear, aldehides...herbs&spices( basil, ivy, cardamom), then tonka beans, sandalwood, musk and vanilla in the base notes...to much...I think they just tried to much to make it perfect..and failed miserably!!
You know there's a saying "Less is more",in this case whoever made this fragrance never heard of it!!It's sad because if it was a bit more calm..it would be a wearable scent!!Like this is not!

One of the best I have ever owned! It's a very long lasting scent and don't need a lot to grab attention. I will always have this one in my collection! Better suits me in colder months.
11/24/08 08:26:39
I love it! This fragrance is one that has surprised me it's a bit strong at first but as the day goes on the fragrance enhances a bit more to one's likeing. It surprised me to love a fragrance that's a bit strong but nonetheless I love it. I find myself grabbing this for day time as well as night time use. One of the best I have owned.
11/22/08 08:52:44
The only D & G i ever loved.There is something very feminine and modern about this perfume .The con being i havent seen them in most malls of late .
11/11/08 18:40:30
My first impression undeniable: this one isn't for everybody. Its a wonderful scent to stay in a strong sensuous sense of femininity.
Its for natural elegance's women :) Maybe i will buy it
11/11/08 16:52:56
I truly love! is the only fragrance of this brand that I love! it feels awfully good and very sexy and cool at once ;)
11/11/08 09:56:15
 
sweet..to sweet and too strong..but if u like the sweet perfumes is good for coldddd days and you feel very luxurious..very womanish:)
11/03/08 17:03:15
I don't like this at all. Very strong and make my stomach turn.
10/29/08 16:00:59
What a great perfume! I can't imagine being without this one. This is the perfume I get the most compliments on from other women. It's a strong one, no doubt about that. But it is also very, very sexy yet oddly fresh, nearly soapy sometimes. Very long lasting on the skin and it does not fade away quietly either: It is almost surprising how long this perfume will stay on yet still not smell faded out or weak. Not a perfume to wear on a day you don't want attention. This one can't help but be noticed.

I dont Like this scent for women
10/05/08 10:57:43
This is an amazing perfume, sensual and a luxurious feminine scent
09/19/08 20:49:32
It is my favorite perfume of my life, a luxury to be sensual and magic.
06/26/08 05:42:40
I love this scent, as previously mentioned by zoka, yes, it smells very Italian. I find it to be pretty sophisticated and unique, and I like its strength. My mom gave me her bottle of this! She said she never uses it, so it's mine now ;p. I'm excited to add it to my collection. I definitely detect a lot of aldehydes and florals on me. I usually hate aldehydes, so I'm surprised to like this. It turns out rather soapy on my skin. The aldehydes make it a bit difficult for me to pick out the notes, but I think I detect mostly jasmine on me with the top notes of basil and bergamot. Very nice! Definitely more of an occasional wear for me.
06/04/08 18:24:46
It is not bad, but it is totally average and ordinary perfume for me. Just like its bottle - nothing special, unique or classy about this one. It is sharp floral and also very boring. Nothing, nothing, nothing special.
05/06/08 12:37:07
I love Dolce & Gabbana. I first fell in love with it after I smelt it on my mother. I finally got ahold of a bottle from a very generous swapper. On me it has very nice tangerine, basil & sandalwood notes. It almost smells like a beautiful citrus basil triple-milled soap. Pros: Rich, feminine fragrance with strong notes of sandalwood, basil & tangerine. Long lasting with ever changing subtle notes. Only takes ONE spritz to last around 6 hours on me :)

Cons: Not for the faint of heart. It takes a certain chemistry to pull this one off. I have made this my signature scent. The lotion is heavenly. I don't even have to use the EDT during the day if I wear the lotion. I absolutely love this sophisicated scent. It always gets compliments from men and women alike.
01/15/08 22:04:43
I love it, although floral sweet there is also a freshness to it due to the citrus scents. Very nice, ultra-feminine perfume.
09/21/07 04:14:52
Very long lasting and too strong for me, sweet, fruity and spicy... very Italian perfume ;o)
09/15/07 03:23:53
my mum got me this last christmas, i havent used much of this as for me i find this to be very strong!! im more into sweet & fruity smells. however it is nice for occasions and it definitely lasts long. its in a nice simple bottle with a lid easy to use.
