D&G Anthology La Temperance 14 Dolce&Gabbana for women

love it smell yummy but not to sweet and that way i like it
well balanced 8.8/10

I find this very interesting, especially since it is unisex. I like it. It's kind of gourmand and clean at the same time. I can't put my finger on the notes right away, because it has such a mix. But I can definitely pick out something somewhat nutty, musk, and hibiscus. This is definitely an interesting one. The staying power seems pretty good, too.

This was lovely, but more sweet than I expected! A sweet and upbeat floral, I can actually smell mostly the hibiscus and rose, with ambrette seed and lively pink pepper in the opening. Sillage is really nice too, staying time average 5-6 hours on me. Temperance for the name feels a bit too sedate for this fragrance.

What patchouli??! Cream+Vanilla+Lemon - delicate summer fragrance! Not as long lasting as 10, just enough to brighten your summer spirit. I want one!

I WANT and NEED 14! After 3, which is a LOVE of my life, 14 is my favorite! SO good! DELICIOUS! I NEED to test it on me again to see how it lasts. Simplicity can be heaven and La Temperance 14 is! Bravo D&G! : )

D&G Anthology LA TEMPERANCE is a sweet, somewhat floriental fragrance which seems more geared toward ladies than gents. The musk here is clean and resinous, not sweaty or foggy, so the overall effect is more oriental, especially with the sweetness. I am reminded a tiny bit of those foil-wrapped dark chocolate oranges which come divided in individual slices--which is pretty interesting given that neither chocolate nor orange is listed among the notes!

I do not smell the ambrette as ambrette or the iris as iris, but I do think that the composition is pleasant, if familiar. But I should also add that, although the latest members of the Anthology series are not unique relative to what is already available on the market, they are distinct relative to the other members of the series. No redundancies so far, to my nose. I like how D&G is trying to cover all sectors of the olfactory map, one sector at a time with these medium quality, moderately priced fragrances.

LA TEMPERANCE smells pretty nice, not too artificial and not very complex. Similar in some ways to Moschino GLAMOUR and TOUJOURS GLAMOUR. Simple but likeable, although it is pretty sweet, so some guys would find this one out of the question, I think.

14 smells like chocolate, something between milky/dark chocolate. There isn't a spectacular change of notes, there's monotony in it and the fragrance stays rather close to skin, but it's nice. I see it rather as a whole, not a mix of ingredients, I can sniff amber, iris, abrette seeds though. I wish the fragrance was of a better sillage because it's a good one, pleasant to wear.
Definitely more female than male, L'Imperatrice is sweet & loud, this one is sweet and quiet. Worth trying if you like chocolate smells/flowers floating in chocolate, not 100% gourmand ones. I like it!

At first spray and in the bottle this smells like a delicious orange creamsicle atop freshly sliced mandarin orange. As it dries down this wonderful creamy fruit dissapears completely and turns into a amber accented by a soft floral, only to fade into a warm amber. Great for those who are looking for and love amber specifically.

this is really nice! it's quite sugary and it reminds me of the way Viva La Juicy smells! the two don't smell the same but it evokes the same kind of feeling... if that makes sense! This is a super lovely scent!

I tested this yesterday and have to say I agree with Mercurial. Nothing special!

I waited months for this and I have so say I am SO disappointed. :( Given that everyone has different chemistry, to me this ended up smelling like your average vanilla musk you can get at Bath and Body Works. No complexity, no layers, no fun. Then again, I have not been impressed with the entire D&G line, so maybe it's just me.

If only the fragrances in the anthology wre long lasting. sigh

Among other Anthology scents this one is closer to L'Imperatrice. It is delicately sweet and fruity, but more musky and less juicy than the previous fragrance. I do not feel any iris (at least in its traditional interpretation), but there is a dominant fruity note here... For me it is lemon or even lime! But not spicy or sour or bitter, but sugary and lovely. La Temperance is well composed, it has everything to become as popular as L'Imperatrice. Unfortunately, longevity is not good as well as sillage (this is typical of musky scents).

Testing: adorable iris, but...disappears very quickly.

I was at the perfume shop today , (i go to perfume shop every week , not always to buy , just to test , watch ...) and i was so excited to see at last they had La Temperence , so i tested it , and i was like "Is that all ?" , it's just one ok ,nice fruity (though no fruity notes are listed it is found it fruity), gentle scent .
A typical office wear frag i feel neutral about it . I like La Roue de Fortune and La Lune much more.

i feel a lot of orange????very strange!!!!!

it smell like warm chocolate, but still here is fresh notes too :)

I love It...It's sweet in a very soft and gentle way. Only negative thing, on my skin the perfume doesn't last long time. I use to wear L'imperatirce, but now I think i'll switch to La Temperance!!

Yes D&G have made good work of the Anthology so far.
A heavy floral on a earthy base is just what I expect from La Temperance
