Hello there my Fellow Fragrance Friends! So today I'll be reviewing the scent Dolce & Gabanna The One Essence. And I must say I was not impressed by this AT ALL!. Like so many other enthusiastic fragrance lovers, I became interested in wanting to put my nose on this scent per recommendation of YouTube fragrance influencers hyping this up to higher heights. However to me this smells very mature. I'm getting financially stable woman age of 55 plus who is always pulled together, dressed well and donning beautiful accessories type of energy from this. I'm not in this category but even if I was I'd still pass on this one as I have a sweet tooth and in my opinion this is not sweet. More fresh with some floral undertones. I really wish I picked up the banana notes other folks say they can detect because that was actually part of what propelled me to wanna sample this. I also did not pick up the peach or the mandarin orange that was promised in the opening. I wanted so badly to be swept away by this but it never happened. This would be a gem for the right gal, she however was not for me.

Oh YES she's a beauty!!. That opening was nothing short of pure Nirvana to my olfactory senses!! That lovely tuberose and mandarin orange mixed with the glorious peach, Oh my goodness!!! Oooooh yes, Nishane take me away!! :-)This is the first fragrance I've sampled from this house and so far I'm very impressed.! I can't wait to try others. " Hundred Silent Ways" is very smoothly blended. To my nose I don't detect any cheap or synthetic notes. I literally couldn't stop sniffing my forearm. Its gorgeous!!! I literally took 3 deep inhaled breaths of this one right after the other. All 3 were equally as intoxicating!! "Hundred Silent Ways" projects with no issues for several hours! You will turn heads with this. She dries down in such a stunning fashion. This is full blown femininity. She is sweet smelling!:-). ( Which is exactly how I love and prefer my fragrances!.) There is nothing unisex or masculine about this juice. This is a beautiful all in perfume for a beautiful confident woman.! This fragrance in my humble opinion is the epitome of elegance and sophistication!. Yet in the same vein its also a seductive, very sexy scent!! I feel that its blind buy worthy, however I would always personally always recommend to sample first just to make sure you love it. I highly recommend you get your nose on this!!

I had high expectations for this as I like others saw this came strongly recommended per YouTube fragrance influencers. So my thoughts are well....I don't detect vanilla at all. My nose picks up a fresh cotton like accord, layered with florals ( I think that's the Geranium flower in this I'm picking up). I also detect a sweetness. I can smell the Ylang Ylang and the Coconut but no vanilla as others have said they detect. Don't get me wrong its not an unpleasant scent, its just giving me more the scent vibes of high quality shampoo or pleasantly fragranced hair products not necessarily something I'd wanna wear as a perfume.

Hello there! So I think this would smell gorgeous on a man. At least on my skin "Bouquet Ideale" pulls more masculine then not. On my skin its nothing to write home about, very unforgettable. With this one I'd strongly suggest getting your nose on a sample first like I did. If you are woman who likes in my opinion fragrances that are not very sweet/ feminine and you prefer more unisex/ masculine leaning fragrances I think you would love this. If like myself your not that girl I would pass. Not a blind buy scent. Definitely sample first!!

Hello There Fellow Fragrance Lovers!! So I will start by saying I love the name of this scent, " Blessed Baraka". It's part of the reason why I chose to sample it. Blessed Baraka is a beautiful smelling fragrance. However getting down to it, in my humble opinion there is nothing unisex about this scent. Nor is it simply " masculine leaning", this is a straight up and down cologne, all day long, no question about it!! I must say, I think this would smell downright criminal on a man.;-) If you can resist this scent on him, you're the real M.V.P and you deserve a gold star! Lol!!. I feel those sandalwood and musk notes would sing when mixed with masculine pheromones. I'd also like to note, Blessed Baraka is no doubt a beast mode fragrance. You will smell this clear to Neptune just from 2 sprays!! Only 2!!. Since this fragrance was not for me, I decided to wash it off. Well good luck with that, I washed the area 3 times and it smelled like it barely moved. This clung to my skin like white on rice!! I had to later add 2 fragrances on top just to get the scent stop projecting after I'd washed the area 3 times. Although its not for me, I'd still highly recommend this fragrance!
