My favourite cold weather scent!
When I first tried this years ago, I wasn’t a fan, but it grew on me. This is one of my absolute favourite scents to wear every autumn and winter. It’s a staple in my collection.

On me this is a warm, comforting, spicy, sweet, coco butter, caramel, vanilla type of scent. It’s delicious, sexy, comforting, cosy and indulgent. A warm hug on a cold day. Out of the many fragrances I own, this one always gets the most compliments. It projects really well and has turned heads when I’ve worn it. This is also a scent that lasts. I can always smell it on my clothes for days after wearing it. I love everything about it.

Classy deliciousness

This is an outstanding perfume in all aspects of judgement! The ideal show-stopping gourmand is made possible by the harmonious marriage of the notes of caramel, citrus, coffee, and vanilla. It smells like you're attending a lavish event where a caramel macchiato is being served in a room that is being diffused with citrus oils and laced with a soft powderiness from the flowery notes that is noticeable but not overpowering. It is like a warm embrace of goodness. D&G The Only One is quite long lasting with above average projection and longevity. I personally reach for this scent during the colder months, cooler nights or like a date night. Overall, it is a splendid gourmand that should have a place in the collection of someone who enjoys warm and decadent scents!

A staple in my little collection.
This is my third? Fourth? Go round as a perfume collector. I buy a ton of perfumes, get bored or decide I am being wasteful, then give them all away. Then a few months/years later, the bug bites me again and I start collecting all over again. And this one is always one of the first ones I buy. None of the others in the line have worked for me, but I can’t picture my collection without this one.

The Perfect Autumn Fragrance
This is my second favorite fragrance of all time, and it comes very close to being my signature perfume. I keep coming back to it, especially when that first chill of the autumn season hits the air. To me, this smells like a cozy night in with a mug of coffee and a lovely bouquet of fresh flowers nearby. It's both floral and gourmand, with the coffee note being the star of the show and patchouli coming through in the drydown. Its sweetness is natural and not cloying. Overall, a well-balanced fragrance and the most comforting bottle in my collection.

A sensual cocoon
When I saw , a few days ago, this new fragrance on my favourite drugstore shelf, I couldn't resist to smell it;
first of all I was attracted by the elegant squared bottle and by the colour of this precious jus: an intense caramel.
so, I strayed it on the mouillette and on myself too and I felt a special sense of beauty and cocoon.
I was feeling in a warm and soft cloud very sensual.
First of all, a deep coffee smell arrived immediately to my nose covering the fresher opening notes I see now on the pyramid. Then, the powdery and classy touch of the iris heart appeared giving a sophisticated accent to this particular scent. But what remained for many hours on my skin was the patchouli- vanilla base: the patchouli is well balanced and round, oriental and not too earthy and the vanilla is sweet but not sweetish, giving that sense of "cocoon" to this scent. i imagined to wear this fragrance the next fall or winter, maybe sprayed on a warm and soft pashmina too, for a very longlasting pleasure. the sillage is good and this aspect could justify the quite high price. It's a very precious pleasure to wear by night too whenever you want to feel classy and sexy.

I think sweet-gourmand fits the description. I don't smell coffee, but the vanilla & violet are definitely there, strongly. mainstream-sweet

I don't get anything resembling sweet or gourmand. No coffee either. Just a bad patchouli (I'm usually OK with patchouli) and light florals.

Really nice, fruity opening, but had the floral dry down of a B&BW spray (Japanese cherry blossom??). I liked it better when it was fruity
