The One Gentleman Dolce&Gabbana for men

djews..

i have 50m/1.7oz,and im happy for i bougt it.yes,this is really nice fragrance.if it finishes i buy again

Ok, I have had this one for a couple of years and I only bring it out once the weather cools down. I have forgotten how good this is! Wow! It is really top shelf for sure. When I first sprayed it at the shop and went on to buy it I remember it was as though it was the best thing I had ever smelt and I can understand why I thought that. Sweet but masculine and lasts all day, nice and warm, it just makes you feel really good, people love it too. Opening smells a bit old but from the half hour mark onwards It turns into magic and I reckon any age guy could get away with it. Great stuff indeed!

Ok I enjoy this fragrance. It smells similar in the dry down to one of the Avon Dempsey scents. I think that is the Pachouli however with this I do get the vanilla witch makes it a bit different and well better!!! I like it. You can smell pepper in the first spray but it dries at least on me to a patchouli vanilla scent...Not bad. I could wear this.

I prefer sharp green fragrances so this is out of my comfort zone. I have to say I am pleasantly surprised. It's too much vanilla and too sweet, but I find myself reaching for it constantly. It wears well is the best description I have for it. Work functions, dinners, outdoor functions- very pleasant with a slight edge. Hard to explain how a sweet scent can project a mature refined aura like this one.

This's new character, I use it every work in my office. I call "Modern Man", Vanilla is strong. If you're gentleman in millennium, you need it.

سلام
با عرض معذرت از طرفدارای این کار ولی به نظرم افتــــــــــضاح اومد یه ادکلن خسته کننده حوصله سر بر و کسالت آور که به نظر من برای این برند ، این کار یه عیب خیلی بزرگ محسوب می شه

Perfect scent!!! great dry down kind of scent you have on a a woman's house with Sade music playing romantic with a edge, a scent you wear when the best seller is wore by all the fellas, so you stand out and good on the skin. longevity if the woman is kissing your neck.

I never fell in love with this perfume, everytime I smell it I'm neutral about it.
It's nice, at first a little sweet, but then it turns a little flowery and powdery.
I nguess it can be considered a sexy, modern fragrance and also one that if abused can give serious headaches tu people near by!
I don't smell the pepper, but I do smell a constant vanilla, cardamom and lavender. this is a fragrance that I can easily give away and simply forget about it without any regrets.

بوی فلفل تو این کار کاملا مشخصه
در کل بوی سبک و ملایمی داره
ماندگاری و پخش بوی کم
زیاد نپسندیدم

Very peppery intro and then the standard lavendar and mild patchouli. I find it quite boring and the lasting power is weak.

just like it's name, it's smell so gentleman. to me it's smell like burning wood.suitable for high class and suit men in 25-45 ages. not for teen.it last very good on my skin about 6+ and sillage is enough.it's best for high class party.
همانطور که از اسمش معلومه این عطر مخصوص آقایان با کلاس و میانسال با تیپ کت و شلواریه. این عطر دقیقا بوی چوب سوخته می ده.ماندگاری و پخش بوش رضایت بخشه. کلا کاره خوبیه.

smells okay...but really not long lasting...

not nice for my nose

Not bad quality but still very s oft and none longevity, just for hot summer days,

Smelt this the other day, in comparison to The One original this is exactly the same but without the magic. It has a element of slight generic bore.

good smell but so so so boring. simple

Wow... Repulsive to be honest. I dont know how people can prefer this and bag the hell out of The One Sport. This just smells like a church, very incensey and the vanilla smells very outdated, not modern or smooth. Kinda similar to Prada Intense in the way that they are very screechy and mature. At least they got the name right. It should be worn by a gentleman that has lived his life well in luxury. Other than that, I would NOT want to smell this on a boyfriend. The One is a masterpiece and The One Sport is a heart melter. I prefer those by heaps, but what these 3 fragrances have in common is the great longevity.

I smell only lavender and vanilla. Actually it's a step below when compared to The One. Also it does not remembers the original one. I dont think it's worth it because it's a very unidimensional scent that sometimes gets cloying. Thumbs down.

I got this for my bf a few months ago, its so manly and gorgeous, not a sweet fruity aftershave at all,very beautiful and 'gentleman' like, my bf wears on a night out as it is very nigh time like, this is my fav mens aftershave.

Its a good sweet smelling frag, however low on longevity. Otherwise a decent frag.

The guy who wrote this fragrance doesn't really smell like it's notes hit the nail on the head. In fact, it does smell "oudy sweet anise bubblegum" like, which I actually liked better than than what I expected it would smell like.

Dolce and Gabbana never disappoint me love this I must admit personally I like light blue a little better but this ... didn't let me down :)

I used to have this fragrance, but ultimately gave it to a friend.
While I don't mind this fragrance, the top was just something I couldn't get over. I'm not a fan of lavender, nor am I fan of heavy vanilla notes. Both of these notes are featured in the top and middle notes of this fragrance, and on my skin they combine to make a smell that's just kind of bizarre. It reminds me of a fruit-flavored candy I would've eaten when I was younger. I can detect the pepper in this fragrance, but it lingers in the background. I must say that I enjoy the base though, the patchouli and vanilla combine to make a powdery, earthy vanilla accord.
It's not a terrible fragrance by any means, and my girlfriend did like it, but to my nose it was just...strange

why did I blind buy a fragrance that I knew featured two notes I know I don't like?
i have no idea...

I Love it Alot If Dolce And Gabbana Make this as an EDP
Projecting for 4+ hours and lasting 6 hours+
it would really be a masterpiece its a really pleasing smell and the ladies love it

I know the notes are there and maybe its the combination but i get an oudy sweet anise bubblegum type smell :) and its not all that bad. Just gets a bit boring after a while. Doesnt reflect the package as a whole, dont be fooled by the name.
Nice winter scent though.

Lavender-vanilla-patcholi i want the ladies to give this one a try! Its not just for the guys with notes that are sweet and creamy grounded by the patcholi. Love this one quite unisex, in my opinion.

Audaciously bland, from top to bottom. Generic pepper at the opening is almost immediately joined by the 'baby lotion' effect. This lasts for the whole rest of the scent, to the point of being nauseating. The vanilla is not supported at all well by the lavender for me, and the blending simply lazy.

No apples, as some have suggested. No cinnamon or cardamom. Fleeting at best to the point of saying 'why did they bother?'

The bottle is not even the cheapest around and the whole affair is your simple designer standard. Pass and then some! Try a sample of Invasion Barbare from MDCI. Similar notes to here, but achieves a World's worth more.

1/5.

mmmmmmmm., great smell. I believe this is a darker sweetness scent.....better for winter or rainy days.

it is sweeet, but NOT over the top. there is a balance in it that makes you feel safe. its unique, but doesn't make you stand out awkwardly.

i think of marshmellows....haha. but really, there is a deep sweetness to it. it can be elegant and casual all at once.

frankly, its a balanced scent for a variety of situations

There are plenty of bottles that doesn't live up to it's name. Fortunately, for The One Gentleman, the juice lives up to the name. Its a classy manly scent. Pepper and Vanilla are dominant notes through out although it dries down to more of smooth vanilla kind of feel with a little hint of pepper present. If the notes scare you, don't be alarmed, this is by no means an offensive scent.

The scent glows on you for hours and hours. The longevity is great on me. I get 11 hours out of it. You might think it fade out after several hours but its there. This is a unique scent which has the effect of light glowing on you and you get whiffs of it time and time again and think, " wow ! that smells so good ". Projection isn't screaming loud but it can get you noticed and get good remarks. All in all, The One Gentleman is a great flanker and I'm really happy I purchased it. Give this one a try. This is a perfect scent for work and occasions. Classy !

If you like vanilla you'll probably like this one. It's not crude, like Lomani's Ignition, but it's rather nondescript. If you want to make a statement, you'd probably have to apply a huge amount of this. I guess this would be best in cool weather and for casual occasions. I don't view this as directed towards a particular age group, since it's light and not sharp. There's some light spices and lavender, but I don't detect patchouli, so it's likely light and highly blended into the scent. This is not super-sweet and it's not "synthetic" (such as in Cadillac, which is quite "synthetic" to me at first). However, I prefer the vanilla presentation in Opium Pour Homme EdP and Debonair, I think because they are counterbalanced better and are more dynamic. I guess this one is directed more towards those who are not aficionados, and want a light oriental, even if they don't know what a light oriental is.

smells like baby powder

sweet, lavender vanilla bubble gum is what this smells to me.

i am testing out my uncle's THE ONE GENTLEMAN. it is nice. it's perfect for the cool weather because of its sweetness.

i do not smell the transition between notes that strongly though. because once i have sprayed it. i get that sweet bubble gum smell. i'm guessing that could have been the mixture of lavender, vanilla and pepper notes dominating. smelling the sprayer it still smells like bubble gum. and i think that's the best way to describe this fragrance. "sweet, lavender, vanilla bubble gum". and the gum is the strongest to smell with this fragrance.
after 3hrs.it's focusing a bit more on the vanilla and lavender but the gum still's stuck there.
i do get literary a bit of a headache after inhaling it about 10 times every 15 seconds trying to study the smell. but if you don't get that, this is a good date or winter scent. or maybe just wear it every night even without a date. it really complements the cool night breeze.

attitude of the fragrance is not an elegant and sophisticated gentleman though, it doesn't even show uniqueness as the name "the one" dictates. to me it shows a nice, fun loving guy, enjoying the night, chewing his gum.

projection is pretty average on my skin. this could be a formal and casual scent worn at nights. longavity is about 4 to 6 hours on me.

if you love bubble gum guys, this is THE ONE for you!

Take some Givenchy PH and L Instant Guerlain and put some litters of water in it... here it is THE GENTLEMAN....

The only fragrance that makes me feel physically sick... If you insist on wearing this, don't come anywhere near me!

Very nice fragrance. A really pleasant light oriental which is well blended! The vanilla and lavender with pepper is really nice. A lot like Sartoriale by Pal Zileri. This is a lovely, well produced EDT and I like it a lot!

This is very, very nice. Tested it yesterday with 2 heavy sprays on each wrist. What a beautiful opening. The drydown is beautiful too. Such a smooth classy and relaxing scent. This oozes elegance. The longevity with me was quite good. Sprayed it at 08:30 pm and could still smell it on my wrists when I woke at 6am.
The One Gentleman is next on my shopping list.
Most of the mainstream scents on sale these days give me a headache but I did not experience this with the One Gentleman as it so creamy and smooth and easy to wear.
Can't wait to purchase a bottle.


Edit 23.6.12
My wife gave me a gift of 50ml bottle. I love it. So elegant and smooth. Definitely my type of scent.

nice fragrance but not as strong as I would have preferred! very average sillage and longevity.

I've gotten and returned this one now twice. A very interesting frag with a lot of personality and I do like it, but it isn't one that I can wear often. Didn't seem as well suited for the office as the original "The One for Men".

I really love this scent! I mean really. To me, on me, it glows and indirectly radiates for hours and hours on end. I have got as long as 15 hours. At first, upon spraying it, I'm reminded of the smell of fresh fruity pebbles (the Flintstones cereal). To me it smells EXACTLY like that cereal upon spraying it on the backside of my hand. About 10 minutes after the initial spray the fruit pebbles scatters and in comes the mysterious beautiful sexy scent of " the one gentleman". The fruityness tones down a bit and becomes more seductive and mysterious, and when this happens I can detect the original "the one". What I get upon dry down is this: sweet,mysterious,blue vanilla,creamy mild lavender,more blue,dark blue,calming,relaxing and confident,and an omnipresent quality that delivers in surround. Absolutely a masterpiece in my opinion.

When I place my hand directly to my nose a half hour into it, it "seems" to have dissapated and this is where I feel most people give it the notorious longevity or projection problems in their reviews. This fragrance is omnipresent on me and has a "surround sound" projection about it during it's life on your skin. There have been many times where I have said under my breath "I love this scent" hours after spraying it. The best way to understand it's time released quality is to sample it. I am tough on fragrances and have a love hate relationship with many, but in my opinion this one really does it for me. I am 41 years old and I feel that fragrances suit a personality rather than an age.

"Having expectations about ANYTHING can and almost always leads to disappointment"....Accept what it is for what it is, and you'll enjoy whatever it is more often than not. That's what the one gentleman says to me....

like this more than the original. the original's lighter version. lesser seductive, lesser spicy, lesser intense but fresher, cleaner and more sophisticated and more delicious. best for early night out and dinner dates. but for longevity, the original lasts longer. next to try is the sport edition.

Smart, Mature and Warmth scent for me. It start with very strong peppery scent, minutes later it turns to strong smoky lavender + cardamom scent, last for hours and then last note is patchouli with light dusty vanilla scent. Longevity and projection is super great, one can detect it from far and it last more than 5 hours on me, very high quality juice.

The One Gentleman well suit the name - I can imagine gentleman with a nice suit/ formal dressing carrying this perfectly. It might not be groundbreaking and screaming loud, but it is surely Smart and polite in it's projection, a well blended fragrance - I like it a lot.

Overall, this is a very nice formal scent for office wear and special dinner fragrance, a safe choice too.
7/10 from me. Well done.

D&G should focus more on longevity

A good fragrance from D&G.
Start spicy and strong. It's a little hard to detect the notes in the opening for me but definitely I can smell pepper, watercress, cardamom, patchouli and some lavender and hint of vanilla! Yes! actually in the opening you can almost smell all the notes in this fragrance.
Very complicated smell at the start.
It's peppery and also green with herbal smell.
In the drydown the vanilla become stronger with lavender and some cardamom. sweet and yummy!
Very pleasant smell but nothing really special about this fragrance.
The longevity is average and projection is below average.
عطر خوشبو و دوست داشتنی هست
رایحه ابتدایی این عطر پیچیده هست
شما تقریبا تمام رایحه هایی که عطر ازش تشکیل شده رو میتونین در اون لحظه اول که اسپری میکنین استشمام کنین
بوی تند به خاطر وجود فلفل به همراه حس گیاهی و کمی شیرین
در ادامه بوش کمی شیرین تر میشه به خاطر وجود وانیل به همراه لاوندر و هل
متاسفانه پخش بوش خیلی بده و ماندگاریش هم زیاد خوب نیست

Oh this has to be my fave scent on a man!
I wish all men could smell this good all the time.
Brought this for my other half and insisted he made the switch lol...good job he now likes it.
Very peppery when first applied but drys down into a lovely soft spicy scent! Yummy yummy!

One of my personal very favorites! You can definitely smell the combination of pepper, vanilla and lavender. Perfect fragrance for men between the age of 20-30 to wear during the fall and spring. Too bad the fragrance lacks longevity, but still I give this one a 7.5/10.

This is almost the same juice as Dior home. Original.. Which I have both for sale the original silver ring formula 1.7 oz and this one also will sell 3.4 oz bottle for less then retail if anybody wants them hit ,Me up

با وجود اینکه جدید نیست ، اما همانطور که از اسمش پیداست بسیار شیک و خوشبو ، وبسیار مردانه

I really like this. In the bottle it's reversed, I prefer The One to this. But when sprayed I prefer The one Gentlemen to the other. This is spicy and powdery. It could be a great signature scent for a man, not a boy. It's adventurous and out doorsey. Spicy and powdery and leathery. I like it a lot.

very elegant and serious! for me it's not suited for young boys like me, but for men over 40

I love this scent. On me, this opens quite peppery but also fresh, almost cucumber-like. As it dries down, the vanilla begins to come through, with the slight spice of cardamom and just a background hum of citrus. It trails out to a lovely vanilla. My only gripe would be that this all happens very quickly, the vanilla being the only thing I can smell after about an hour.

the one gentlemen from d&g
soul from hugo boss
and visit from azzaro

i think they're the same

outstanding oriental
longevity and sillage are good
but yet too sweet for a man
i prefer the original one

Like most have said you initially are initially greeted with a the spiciness of pepper. However, on my skin at least, that spiciness is quickly remedied with the lavender and patchouli.

Soon after that it fades into a creamy-vanilly musk, my favorite stage. I like this scent for the fall and winter. A quiet nights in, warm and cozy type of scent. It is light but doesn't remain too close to the skin. The only thing I have a minor issue with is the longevity. The vanilla creme does linger, but it is very, very subtle.

The One Gentleman opens with a bit of an interesting sharp and sour character. Then it drys down to a very nice base. So it starts off and goes with a youthful attitude and ends pleasant and classy. I like it. It's ok. A strong try or buy if you like the opening. My opinion is based on two sample bottles for test purposes. As an update I did buy a 1.7oz for the new year. Cheers

A mixture of caramel and soap which is intense to begin with, but soon fades..

I applied 6 heavy sprays.

0- 1 hours - Intense soapy & caramel (odd combo) cocktail which projects and people turn around, many people turn around, ok, stop looking in my direction!

1- 2 hours - Some projection but not like the 1st hour, drats

2 hours- very close to skin

Not for me due to longevity, shame

I smelt this on a man last week and I had to know the name of it. Despite the fact I embarassed my man by approaching random men in a nightclub and asking what cologne they were wearing, I managed to find out that the man in particular was wearing The One Gentleman.

This is incredibly sexy stuff, not to mention sophisticated too. I found the original The One for Men a little bland, but this flanker is to die for. It has prominent accords of lavender, cardamon, vanilla and patchouli. It's musky, herbaceous, woodsy, spicy and sweet all rolled into one.

It opens quite peppery and spicy, not unlike Bang by Marc Jacobs. Later it settles into a smooth vanilla and lavender blend which is the sexiest part. It's a touch dry but also quite chocolatey and creamy at the same time.

The patchouli in the base creates this gorgeous earthiness that is hard to describe. The scent also turns a little powdery in the drydown which is a surprise, but also something that I admire about this composition. This is probably one of my favourite masculine releases in the last few years. It has a lot to love about it.

There's this beautiful contrast between sweet and spicy, which makes me think that The One Gentleman could in fact be worn by brave ladies. The scent itself is unobtrusive but not too light. It leaves a lovely trail, hence the reason why I approached the man wearing it in the first place. Not to mention, the guy was incredibly cute, but don't tell my boyfriend that.

this is a crazy one from D&G ! : Lavender+ vanilla and patchouli !u smell the all the 3 !! I like it .just wear it and feel how confident u are ! this is 30+ age ,spring & winter parfum!
Longevity & Sillage: good

Lacks in uniqueness. To me it is very similar to Givenchy Organza Indecence for women. But I like it...

Great scent, but it doesn't last that long on me, the smell fades over 3 to 4 hours into a subtle sweet smell wich is still very good, but a little too weak for my likings.

-scent 8.
-Longevity 6.
-Sillage 6.5.

My spontainious reaction sniffing on this one was that it smells like mulled wine and play-doh. I'm not a fan.

This one is another masterpiece from D&G

I really like this one. But here's the weird thing...it kind of reminds me of my wife's perfume -- Jennifer Lopez Deseo. It's got that woodsy, patchouli scent going on. Longevity is about 6 hours on me. Sillage? I don't know yet because no one has said anything. I can smell it throughout the day, though. My only issue with it is quite simple...I SMELL LIKE MY WIFE!

7.5/10

good one...masculine,wear it with a suit tailored one...

My first impression wasn't good but I have changed my opinion.After its drydown I could realize this fragrance is pretty confortable. Good longevity on my skin. Maybe the word Gentleman makes you think it is a scent for mature men but I don't think so. In my opinion it will be appropiated for young guys too.

much prefer the original,this is quite ordinary

Uh.... no.

This is basically Karma by Lush with a lot more vanilla. If you've smelled Lush, or not, there is a very strong and annoying banana/cilantro/dirty taco note that I have attributed to either poor use of patchouli, or intrusive lemongrass.

Perhaps it's some woody-amber aromachemical reacting weird on my skin. Whatever it is, it comes back in The One Gentleman and goes straight from my nose to my brain where a headache starts developing.

Not for me, sorry.

Very nice!
It smells like orange peel and vanilla ice cream blended with a little bit spice

Some scents based on nutmeg generates a feeling that make me remember each one of them. Examples: Boss Soul, Intimately Beckham Men and the strong Kenzo Jungle Homme. I don't see nutmeg listed here, but it is another scent that gives me the same feeling. So, pretty unoriginal to my nose. But, at the same time, to my nose also, I find it better than the other three I mentioned. Oriental? More woody, that's what I think. I was expecting more.

Today I tried Kenzo Jungle and unerstood that The one Gentleman is a copy of it, maybe less spicy. What a shame - I thought that The one Gentleman is sth new in the perfumery...

It's pepper sweetned by vanilla.
Very relaxing and pleasant but not unique.
More suitable for work fall and winter.
I didn't test the longevity but all community complain about it.
Comparing to original i see same type of sweetness in both.

Less smoky, more of a softer spice, a softer scent all over. Gentleman incorporates the more floral side of the scent and adds a tinier dash of pepper, but also uses a more dominant yet softer vanilla base.

By Gentleman, it seems to mean a more subtle and mature personality than the original.

To decide between the two, its simple:
The One is more resiny from the Ambergris, Cedar and cardamom, and projects a lil more.
Gentleman goes for the softer, peppery vanilla body.

I prefer Gentleman.

Dolce and Gabbana The One Gentleman

This fragrance really reminds me of the original "The One" in a very subtle way. The opening is totally different thanks to its strong peppery vibe that hits my nose in a very pleasant way. I have to admit that I kindof like it albeit not being fond of pepper note very much myself.

There is a trend in having pepper as one of the top notes in many recent fragrances. By this, I mean it is well formulated unlike Hugo Boss Element, which is rather ill-implemented, if you ask me. Therefore, The One Gentleman reminds me of Marc Jacob Bang and they are equally good at the top notes department.

Regarding its name, I truly believe the word "Gentleman" is defined to reflect its smooth, sweet and charming vibes rather than being overly masculine. "Sophisticated modern man" suits the concept of The One Gentleman very well.

My thoughts:
Longevity: Very good
Sillage: Very good
Bottle design: Unique with blue juice making fragrance collectors keen to own it :D
Recommended? (Try/Buy/Pass): (Definitely)Try :)

Cheers,

One word...creamsicle. I put just one spray on my wrist this morning, and here it is afternoon, and I'm still getting strong whiffs of this. Out of the bottle, I didn't like it. Too sweet...nothing like a gentleman if you ask me...this is cloying. As I sit here, it is not an unpleasant smell, but there is nothing sexy or subtle about this. It is almost gourmand with its deep vanilla. I am guessing those of you who like JPG Le Male, will like this as well, maybe even better. For me, it is too loud, too sweet, too heavy. The scent could not be further from its advertising if it tried.

عطرهای دلچی گابانا روی هم رفته خوب هستند و خود من در بین کارهایشان مردانه قدیمی را خیلی دوست دارم و بلو لایت زنانه اش را هم خیلی استقبال ازش شده است اما د وان هم بوی خوبی دارد و دوامش هم بد نیست اما عطر جدید دلچی گابانا یعنی د وان جنتلمن با آنکه دوام د وان را ندارد باز هم رایحه خوبی داشته و بنظرم برای تابستان مناسب است باید در تابستان دوام و پخش و رایحه اش را تست کرد و نظر داد و بعد هم اگر خوب بود خریداری کرد

Kenzo Jungle Homme? No way! What about this one:
L'Instand de Guerlain or Obsession by CK?
I have it on my wrist and it's exactly Guerlain but eau de toilette version not perfume. You can smell vanilla at the beginning to the end. It's warm and chic perfume proper for night clothes and night parties! Gentle as it's named. It's a masterpiece not so near to The One. It's more near to Guerlain with a little flowers added and less instant notes and less sugary notes and more citruses. All of these are in very tiny measures.
Highly masculine and chicer and more official than The One. It's can be worn in casual way but ceremonial is my preference.
Evokes masculine power and attractiveness!

longevity 10/10
sillage 8/10
scent 9/10

its share 10% of the original the rest of it are more woody and touch of oriental with less spicy
what D&G did is ruin the original and the name "THE ONE"
longevity looks V good
over all its fine , but its not great as the original .
D&G shouldn't relate this one to the name and bottle of the original .

I gave this new version to my husband : perfect for him. The One Gentleman is a lighter version of The One : younger, punchy, attractive and sweet. Good lasting.

I bought this for my husband for Christmas. It is a wonderful, drive me crazy scent. Now for the bad news, we had to return it. My husband tried it for two days. Although the scent was nice, it did not last on him. After 3 hours you would never know he had it on. That was even layering the scent (I bought him the gift set). I don't see paying that much for something that won't last, and trust me it is not cheap.

A rather boring, generic, dry, dusty, sweet, spicy oriental fragrance. Again, like "The One" is nothing special.

Less sexy successor of vanilla-based The one with addition of patchouli that makes the scent sickening. Nevertheless I can’t deny the uniqueness of The one Gentleman.

Nothing special for me...it is a lighter version of the original...boring and nothing extraordinary.

Yes, yes, yes! ChristopheD is right ! It's very similar to Karl Lagerfield Capsule Woody. It smells wonderfull ! The better one than The one original for me.

For shure it's non ofensive, rather close to skin scent. As name say - it's gentleman, not macho or bully perfume.
I can agree with VanAllan - it's start fruity - synthetic fruity. Hopefully those "mr propper" notes fade away quicly. After that we have cardamon,vanille and musk (imho musk is there). It's this part that stay close to skin and quite long.
This one have nothing to do with regular "The one". To be hones i prefere regular one - abut this i'm indiffer

wow! I love this scent!
subtle and tamed, but sophisticated and proper.
Me being fourteen, I was actually surprised by how much I enjoyed this.
It opens up with a light pepper note and a very clean vanilla bean scent, and this vibe stays on the wearer for the whole longevity.
10-15 minutes later I get a warm apple pie vibe from the cardamon similar to la nuit de l'homme be in a more neutral position. By the end I get all of the above with a dark lavender vibe added to it.

I can see the original one for clubbing parties ect. and this one being a perfect daytime scent.

Originality- 7
Top-6
Heart-7

Amplification- 7

i hasd as sample for this today. and got couple of good feedbascks.
i rate this one:

smell-8/10
lenghth-9/10

Nice opening of pepper and vanilla. The drydown on my skin is similar to Guerlain L'Instant for men EDP. I don't need to buy this.

This one is heavily advertised around here in my town at the moment, it has a nice name, a deservedly popular sister-fragrance, and a stylish label - expectations were high.

I gave it a couple of tries, but it doesn't suit me. It's one of those new scents that smell all too much like freshly made cookies to me. Don't get me wrong, I love cookies, but they're just sweet, not sexy. Being sweet and sexy are not necessarily the same thing.

Remember: if you want to seduce someone, being sweet alone is not enough.

Starts like a Wrigley chewing gum (the yellow one-juicy fruity, 'iMaverick' is right!), then little spicy & fresh with nice lavender & cardamom.

From this point forward, to the sweet-warm base, I get a strong similarity with Guerlain L'Instant and something from patchouli-vanilla combo also reminds me of Gucci Rush PH, a discontinued fragrance.

I still like better The (original) One, so I'll pass this one for cold weather, and go for L'Instant de Guerlain. Voila!
My personal rank 6.5/10. Sorry D&G!

It's not anything like BY, but it is very nice! Where By was nutty and had dry, sweet florals on a bed of leather and tobacco. The herbal side of By was airy and clean, but here it's warmer...

This begins with a twist of pepper over fennel. The fennel jumped out at me immediately! As the spices blend with the cardamom and lavender they become sweeter and fuller. It stays warm yet emanates coolness and sophistication. The lavender is so beautiful in this one. There are whispers of the original here, but they remain discreetly in the background. The drydown is much better than I expected it to be. I figured patchouli and vanilla would be overbearing together,(like when your man goes out with his drinking buddy and the normally mild-mannered guy becomes, after 2 drinks, the instant idiot!)but they bring out the best in each other. Vanilla's sweet thickness really balances patchouli's dry, musky type of earthiness creating something sublime! Oh, if only the Anthology series was made like TOG is...

Sillage: good
Longevity: above average
Overall: 4.25/5

This is not like what I thought it would be, but you can detect all the notes listed. It is quite genteel, but has a dark intrigue about it and is very sexy; (even on paper!) and it is much better on skin. Something in this reminds me of absinthe liquer-most likely the fennel and cardamom-and almost brings a flush to my cheeks, when I first smell it...we have a definite keeper here, as I actually like this more than The One for men-I LOVE IT!!

Within this handsome pale blue oriental, I can detect some of the elements used in the original "The One." While they relate, they differ in many ways. The One is not so generous when it comes to being subtle. The wearer wants to be acknowledged, recognized and center of the world without being too cocky. Gentleman lives up to it's name and lacks the heaviness carried by the original. You could say The One Gent is a more tolerable version for those overwhelmed by it's predecessor, with the addition of the lasting lukewarm vanilla dry-down.

It is definitely not like Gucci Rush for Men. It's peppery and incensey while remain fresh and "gentle". I don't get anything else much but jump straight down to the base. The base is all about patchouli that I don't like (and my skin loves to amplify it lately!). Luckily, vanilla gives it a subtle sweet and make patchouli more tolerable. Good scent tho but sorry! but this won't make it to my wardrobe.

i used it yesterday, still smell it, wonderfull stuff.

At first, I was put off, because at the opening, I smelled something like Juicy Fruit Stripe chewing gum. But as it faded away I was pleased to smell something much like a hybrid scent. Its core reminded me of the green aquatic qualities as in Calvin Klein Truth, and wrapped in a seductive ambery warmth, like that of Cavalli Oro. The patchouli in the drydown really makes the vanilla seductive. I really like this one. I don't think they really needed to play on The One because this scent can stand on its own.

At first a I was a little bit disappointed – nothing special to me, but after one hour, that Gentleman turned itself into something very special – warm and sweet. The smell after 2 hours is very well balanced and definitely it’s a very stylish scent. I think the secret is in the mix between vanilla and pepper. The dry down is great and it makes Gentleman a top class autumn/winter men scent.

This one totally reminds me of the discontinued Gucci Rush Man which I still have.
Somehow I have the feeling that this is a copy of Gucci Rush.
Anyone else is having that feeling?

So for me it´s not worth to buy it.

If you haven't smelled it yet it will most likely be VERY different than what you were expecting. This is a very mature scent that definitely isn't a high school or even college scent. The One Gentlemen will work great for the 30+ crowd bc it shows sophistication w/o being offensive or old man-ish.

I don't like the original. It has some sort of sweetness I don't like to smell on men, and it goes through all its phases.

Gentleman is different, the name is good, it's gentle... I'd even say it's a sort of a skin scent, has a very poor sillage, you really have to come up very close to actually smell it ... but then you could find yourself in heaven. Ok, at least lifted 30 cm over the pavement.

The top and heart are barely smellable. Very soft delicate lavender with a bit of spices. When the base shows after a couple of hours, the scent melts on skin to a lovely, not-too-sweet vanilla with just the right amount of patchouli, no one stands out here. I can still smell the light mist of lavender on this stage.

Big staying power, good concept - I love the colour of this liquid! Great flanker.
Bravo Dolce&Gabbana!

I'm not too keen on how this scent starts off, but give it about an hour and it transforms into something special.
The drydown is amazing. I still get a slight peppery smell, the longer time passes the more predominent the patchouli and vanilla smells become, which is something a lot of women seem to like. But it's like there is something also there, like a very slight citrus smell too.

THis smells like straight up bubble gum and a mix of a few diff candies. I was suprised that D&G even considered this to be the flanker AND call it "Gentlemen", this smells juvenile to me

I bought the 1.7 oz yesterday from Macy's and I think I just might need a bigger bottle! This is a fantastic winter scent! It smells like Vanilla and Patchouli and something else sweet, sensual and spicy. It smelled better sprayed than in the magazine! I love this one more than the original. Not to mention the beautiful bottle! Another Fifi for my MAIN men D&G, perhaps??? :)

Holla, perfect scent for winters but does not lasts long, 3 to 4 hours.
The One old is much better in Lasting.

Very nice and classy 35+ winter parfum.
acceptable longevity !but very warm parfum for rainy days too!!

gave this a try because I like the 1.unfortunately it was the last one I tried that day so it was not a fair test.it was sweet with a strong lavender note.need to test again to be sure.

I smelled this frag on one of those scented magazine ads in men's health.

i own the original "the one" and i love it, except for the average sillage and longevity.

this version is more of a lighter, floral/aqua/lavander feel to it. classy, yet light.

in sharp contract is the original "the one" which is more of a spicy oriental fragrance.


ill wait for reviews. but if this new version is just a different scent and doesnt improve on the sillage and longevity, i wont be getting this. if this is somehow an "extreme" version and last longer and projects more, ill get it.

very classy smell.

I am wondering if this is what Dolce & Gabbana are offering to replace the sexy masterpiece of BY for Men...

The top is peppery, but not nutty. The heart is also dominated by lavender(like BYs) but this has the aromatic, sweet fennel and smooth, dry cardamom instead of BY's dry green tarragon. The base of earthy dirty patchouli and sweet, sharp vanilla is oriental while BY's was more woody, resinous with manly notes of tobacco and Leather. The tops and hearts are more similar than the drydowns; although, both bases are oriental they end in very different ways...This is sure to be stunning if it IS the heavier evening version of the super masculine and elegant THE ONE for Men.

My only question to Stefan and Domenic is why not re-release the original BY for Men?! Everybody and their brother who passed on it in the 90s due to the wild flacon probably wish they had snapped it up...considering it is going for $199.00 USD and up on eBay...It was in my opinion the sexiest fragrance for men ever!

When I finally procure this version of The One for Men I will, of course, judge it on its own merits. Hopefully though, it can fill some of the gaping void left by the long, lost zebra-striped cologne no one (as yet) could begin to touch...

Ive been wondering when theyd do another The One for men. I LOVE the original! It was my high school graduation gift so it will always be special to me. It sounds really nice!! I LOVE lavender & vanilla!! This could be very interesting!! I cant wait!!! : )
