The One for Men, composed by Olivier Polge for Dolce&Gabbana in 2008, is a warm, spicy scent with a tobacco-amber base. Spice leads, herbs are strong, and a minority mention woods, flowers, amber and citrus.

Grapefruit, coriander and basil open with a bright, slightly bitter and herbal citrus. The heart brings orange blossom, ginger and cardamom, a honeyed floral note wrapped in warm, aromatic spice. The base is cedar, tobacco and amber, a dry, smoky and gently sweet finish.

Most wearers report moderate longevity, with many finding it weak, and close to half describe the sillage as intimate. It is voted for autumn and winter and leans towards evening. That suits dates, dinners and close-quarters occasions, for men who want a refined, warm skin scent rather than a loud one.

The One for Men — for men fragrance by Dolce&Gabbana (released 2008). Top notes: Grapefruit, Coriander, Basil. Heart notes: Ginger, Cardamom, Orange Blossom. Base notes: Amber, Tobacco, Cedar. — Parfica open fragrance database
