Unique lemon and coffee blend
It's interesting to me that the fragrance community always complains about the main releases of fashion brands being so bland and boring yet when a brand does something unique and interesting, it is immediately shit on, while we continue to glorify the umpteenth iteration of Spicebomb, Emporio Armani - Stronger With You, or Y (2017) Eau de Toilette. I agree Devotion could have been composed a bit better, with more naturals and more care taken in blending. But the fact is this fragrance stands out, in a good way, at the fragrance counter at Macy's.
Of course, the coffee note is the main culprit behind the uniqueness. And especially the lemon-coffee combination which is not a common blend. Usually coffee is mixed with sweeter vanilla-milky notes, but here it is surrounded by an almost old-school citrus-patchouli accord. It is unexpected and beautiful. In the drydown musks and oakmoss take over, giving a fougere/chypre feel.
Performance is not great, projecting for half an hour to an hour, and lasting on the skin for only 3 or 4 hours. Would be a great light scent to put on for a morning ritual before a shower, or to wear at the gym.
Edit: The bottles, both 100ml and 50, are absolutely gorgeous. And I'm rating the value for money high in anticipation that this fragrance will be very cheap at discounters similar to other D&G releases. Please do not pay over $100 for this, it is not worth it at that price.
