Dolce Dolce

Wednesday 2 April 2014


Dolce (or Dolce Dolce as Carrie from Sex And The City would say) is the new perfume from Dolce and Gabana and was given to me by my lovely husband as a birthday present last month.

When I first got to smell this perfume I have to say that I wasn't that impressed with the fragrance as it smelt of something I have smelt before and when a top designer comes out with a new fragrance you would expect a perfume that is new and exciting, right. I normally get curious and think of scents that I have never smelt before.
Maybe its because of its top note of Neroli leaves which can be found it quite a few perfumes these days for its fresh yet sweet fragrance.

But non the less this is a beautiful perfume that shouts elegance and beauty. Dominico Dolce describes this as a picture he carries with him of Sicily and he wanted to capture this in a delicate fragrance. A memory of tradition and emotion in all its freshness, elegance and youthfulness.
And if you watch the Campaign you can truly see that he got that right. He captured the spirit of this Sicilian girl perfectly, her walking though an orchard full of orange trees and with beautiful flowers in the background on a lovely hot midsummer day. That's exactly what I think of when I dream about Sicily.

Anyway I am glad my husband gave me this perfume as this will be my scent for the summer and there is nothing more beautiful that coming back to a fragrance and remembering a lovely time you have had.
