IS IT TOO EARLY FOR CHRISTMAS PRESENTS?
Well, here are 2 fragrances from Dolce & Gabbana that are guaranteed to please and she or he will be reminded of you each time it is sprayed or dabbed on!
DOLCE&GABBANA Pour Femme
From the Mediterranean, epicentre of harmonies and contrasts, the classic fragrance is reborn, embodying the essence of the Dolce&Gabbana woman – passionate, sensual and maternal.
This is a fragrance that epitomizes the style of Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana, who have made Mediterranean beauty a global icon: a perfect synthesis between innate love for tradition and a natural yearning for the contemporary. This is the Dolce&Gabbana DNA.
The fragrance
Dolce&Gabbana Pour Femme is an experience of contrasts that will envelop the senses and linger long after she is gone; an exuberance of sinuous details tracing a striking combination of strength and gentleness.
Seductive, soft and soothing neroli, intertwined with nuances of raspberry, is given a playful lift with a hint of tart green mandarin, this gives way to a heart of voluptuous sensuality, a softly undulating fragrance of potent florals: velvety jasmine melting into the citrus sweetness of orange blossom.
The addictive and seductive qualities of the sugary ‘Guimauve’ introduce the full bodied sensuality of the vanilla base notes. This captivating feature of the fragrance is further lit up by the roundness of heliotrope and the smooth intense cream sandalwood.
The packaging
A little masterpiece of luxury; a crimson package, velvety to the touch, celebrating the power, style and heritage of the gold embossed Dolce&Gabbana logo.
A bottle of purity, compact with precise angles lending an image of absolute elegance, which blossoms enticingly into a crimson coloured cap supported by a solid base of gold.
The Dolce&Gabbana woman
She is a woman aware of her strength and her instincts.
At once determined and warm; gentle towards those she holds close, fierce when it comes to defending her values and her territory.
The Dolce&Gabbana woman is not afraid to face the storms on the open sea, but she is also able to be the safe harbour where shelter can be found.
She allows herself to indulge in the frivolities of seduction, with the light touch of one who treasures the value of her own self-worth.
“She is a woman aware of her own beauty, who loves to take risks and knows how to get what she wants with her gentle touch and her sensuality.” (Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana)
The testimonial: Laetitia Casta
With her exquisitely Mediterranean sex appeal, the French model Laetitia Casta, who has also worked in film for many years, has imposed her presence on magazine covers the world over thanks to her explosive and radiant beauty.
“Laetitia has always bewitched us with her sensual and natural charisma: she is the perfect interpretation of a Dolce&Gabbana woman of today.” (Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana)
A lover of simplicity and mother of three children, Laetitia has succeeded in giving the campaign - directed by Mario Testino - a subtly nuanced character of female freedom and dignity: as such her attitude exudes both a natural eroticism and a conscious authenticity.
The campaign
In the campaign that launches the Dolce&Gabbana classic fragrances, Mario Testino sets a scene of fairytale romance in the Italian tradition, as the backdrop for a tale of love and transgression, like a gem of ancient storytelling.
We find ourselves in a village square in southern Italy. During a joyful wedding party, a girl, played by Laetitia Casta, lets her mind wander to sensuous fantasies, intertwining them with memories and desires for her beloved, played by Noah Mills.
A blend of sensuality and love, Eros and the sacred, scandal and desire follows in the parallel scenes, in which the excitement of the wedding party becomes the setting for a real life elopement: through the narrow Italian lanes of magnificent baroque architecture; along the breathtaking Mediterranean coastline in a 1950s sports car; on a beach, making love to the strains of “Città Vuota” by Mina, the greatest and most loved voice in the history of Italian music.

DOLCE&GABBANA Pour Homme
Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana have dedicated their classic fragrance to the elegance and style of the Italian man. An olfactory portrait, essential to that Mediterranean Latin lover, who is able to project into the collective imagination the iconic power of irresistible sex appeal and tenderness.
In this fragrance, Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana, who succeeded in giving contemporary glamour to the rigour of the Italian sartorial tradition, have encoded the DNA of the Dolce&Gabbana man: sexy, sophisticated and Italian.
The fragrance
Dolce&Gabbana Pour Homme is an olfactory embrace of a mixture of boldness and subtlety: it is elegance itself. Fresh dry tones shift and vary with rounded and light edges. The top notes of neroli open up with gutsy masculinity, giving way to citrus hints of mandarin and bergamot.
Lavender provides the fragrance’s soul of pure freshness, like a Mediterranean breeze, studded with spicy hints of sage and pepper: evocative recollections of a mother’s fresh laundry and the classic essence of a father.
A powerful base of tobacco provides structure for the last dry notes of cedar wood, dotted with sweet hints of tonka bean.
The packaging
A rigorous square carton lined in blue velvet bears the silver Dolce&Gabbana logo: essential and clean.
The bottle confirms the appearance of understated elegance, yet once in the hand, reveals itself to be rounded, softening its aspect. A large cap dominates, again strictly blue on a silver ring.
The Dolce&Gabbana man
Naturally masculine, he aims to enjoy and to share the simple pleasures. Simplicity becomes the key to his style. He is strong; a man who allows himself the caprice of vanity does not conceal his own fragility.
The Dolce&Gabbana man deals with the here and now with an awareness of his own firm traditions and with an intriguing desire to win over the future.
The testimonial: Noah Mills
Noah Mills, American model and up-and-coming actor, has always had strong connections with the vision of the Dolce&Gabbana man. With his Mediterranean face and the sex appeal of a Latin lover, he has featured in many of the Italian brand’s fashion shows and advertising campaigns.
“Noah has that simplicity and naturalness that make a man sexy and reassuring.”
(Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana)
In the campaign directed by Mario Testino, Noah Mills is the perfect southern Italian boy who can lead any woman to fantasies of sensuality and romance.
