History and Origin of The Only One

Immerse yourself in the world of Dolce & Gabbana The Only One, an Eau de Parfum released in 2018.

This fragrance is part of the iconic The One collection, created by the house of Dolce & Gabbana, which since 1985 has embodied passion and seduction in fashion and perfumery.

The Only One EDP offers a modern interpretation of femininity, combining tradition and innovation for true connoisseurs.

As an Eau de Parfum, this fragrance provides intense and long-lasting sillage, perfectly suited for those seeking a memorable and elegant experience.

Its release strengthened the brand's position in the women's fragrance segment, showcasing the continuous evolution of style.

Character and Wear

Dolce & Gabbana The Only One is specifically designed for women, positioned as a feminine fragrance.

It has a moderate sillage that elegantly envelops without being intrusive, ideal for daily and evening outings.

For optimal application, it is recommended to use 2 to 3 sprays on the skin and step into the cloud for clothing, allowing the fragrance to unfold in all its beauty and longevity.

The fragrance belongs to the Floral and Oriental families, combining the delicacy of flowers with warm oriental accents, making it versatile for the autumn-winter season and romantic scenarios.

It includes notes from the citrus, floral, fruity, gourmand, sweet, white floral, and woody groups, creating a multifaceted composition that captivates from the first impression.

If you liked The Only One, you might also appreciate similar fragrances such as Yves Saint Laurent Black Opium, Lancôme La Vie Est Belle, and Nina Ricci Luna, which share similar sweet and floral motifs, offering alternatives to expand your collection.

Creator and Influence

The creation of Dolce & Gabbana The Only One was overseen by the talented perfumer Violaine Collas, known for her ability to blend classical and modern elements in unique compositions.

Her approach brought depth and emotion to the fragrance, reinforcing Dolce & Gabbana's reputation as an innovator in the world of perfumery, and this release became an important step in the evolution of The One line, emphasizing a focus on female strength and sensuality.

Persistence
The persistence of a fragrance is determined by how long it can be felt. It is a characteristic associated with ingredients that evaporate slowly. Persistence depends on the physical properties of the perfume ingredients—mainly their volatility and environmental factors such as temperature and humidity.
Persistence
Medium (2 to 5 hours)

Sillage
Imagine a light cloud of fragrance that, like an aeroplane trail, remains in the air after your appearance. This is the sillage - a subtle or vivid imprint left by the most diffuse element of a perfume composition. The sillage can be almost invisible when it is felt only by you and those around you. Or it can be so expressive that its presence is noticed even long after you have left.
Sillage

Complexity and depth
The complexity of a fragrance is the number and variety of notes that create a unique composition. A complex fragrance contains many different notes that reveal themselves on the skin. The depth of a fragrance is the richness and intensity of the fragrance. Fragrances with a deep composition include heavy and powerful notes that stay on the skin longer and affect others over long distances.

How tempting this pyramid looks! It seems like something truly interesting awaits us. I eagerly await when this wonder goes on sale!
5/5

Oh, another perfume from Dolce with Emilia Clarke on the cover. The pyramid isn't quite to my taste, of course, but maybe it's worth a try. The bottle, yes, looks stylish, but that doesn't always mean there's something worthwhile inside. )))

I tried this fragrance, and honestly, I can't say anything good about it. Coffee in perfumery is definitely not for me. The scent reminds me of a chocolate candy with a coffee filling, but it's not something I want to wear. The longevity and sillage are there, of course, but it just doesn't suit me at all 😒
4/5

My friend and I decided to go shopping on the weekend, we always enjoy these meetings and testing new products. This fragrance, of course, is interesting, but at the same time quite banal, sweetish-coffee, as if you could eat it. It creates a cozy atmosphere, warms you on cold autumn days, but I don't know if I actually like it or not
5/5
5
Vanilla, coffee, and caramel – that's the whole set. All fragrances from this line are essentially carbon copies, which isn't bad, but not particularly exciting either. The gourmand aspect is nice, of course, but it doesn't impress
5/5
5
On my skin, this fragrance behaves completely inadequately. It's as if it demands everyone's attention and isn't willing to share it - not even with me. Its sillage is so powerful that it fills everything around, as if shouting: "Look at me!" It simply leaves no chance for others. If you wear it to the theater, it will definitely overshadow even the brightest star on stage
5/5
5
A fragrance that leaves a bitter aftertaste. Coffee mixed with floral powder seems to recede into the shadows, and caramel only emphasizes this melancholy. It's so rich and viscous, but there's something elusive about it that makes you sad 😔
5/5

This perfume, of course, will suit everyone - it's universal, like winter socks! At first, on me, it smells like some warm bergamot, but not too intrusive, it doesn't scream at the whole world. And then citruses with vanilla and ylang-ylang appear - now that's something more interesting! But, honestly, I don't know how pleasant it all is )
5/5

This winter fragrance is simply excellent! Although it also unfolds quite nicely on a rainy autumn day. The initial notes seem a bit heavy, even more reminiscent of a masculine scent. But just wait a little, and it starts to unfold, filling the space with warm notes. Here you can hear coffee, pear, caramel, and vanilla, while citrus and flowers sound quite subtle. Overall, the fragrance gives the impression of being expensive and prestigious
4/5

The smell of toffee is truly delightful. It's sweet, soft, and gentle, but unfortunately, the longevity leaves much to be desired. When applied, the scent unfolds brightly and richly, but quickly fades. Overall, not a bad option, but not without its flaws )
5/5
5
This fragrance delights with its sweet vanilla, in which a light freshness of citrus and floral notes can be felt. It's truly feminine, soft, and attractive, with a perfect balance of intensity. Suitable for any occasion and lasts quite long 🌸
4/5

The fragrance, where coffee, powder, and vanilla blend, is indeed pleasant. However, in my opinion, it smells quite monotonous. Its longevity and sillage are good, but I crave something more diverse and interesting
4/5

For a fragrance to truly become a part of you, you need to experience something special with it. When it intertwines with moments of our life, it begins to acquire true value and significance
5/5
5
The fragrance combines sweet powder, coffee, and patchouli, as well as a vanilla base. It's a gourmand scent that's sweet, but not overly so. It's warm and cozy, perfectly suited for winter time!!
4/5

The fragrance is, of course, sweet and gourmand, but there's something sad about it. It seems like many might like it, but for me, it reminds me of something lost. Vanilla-coffee Black Opium, yes, there's something to that. Baileys liqueur is also faintly audible, but it doesn't bring joy, rather it evokes longing )
