The Only One, released by Dolce&Gabbana in 2018, is a sweet floral gourmand. Sweetness and florals lead equally, with citrus at half that strength and a woody touch.

The opening is bright and powdery: bergamot and orange give a citrus lift, and violet a soft, cosmetic powder. The heart is the signature, with coffee bringing a rich, roasted note, rose and iris a soft, powdery floral, pear a juicy sweetness and orange blossom a honeyed glow. The base is vanilla, caramel and patchouli, a creamy, sugary and slightly earthy finish.

Most wearers report moderate longevity, some long lasting, and a moderate sillage. It is voted for winter and autumn and leans towards evening wear. Marketed for women, it suits dinners, nights out and cold weather, and anyone who likes a powdery violet and coffee scent with a warm caramel base.

The Only One — for women fragrance by Dolce&Gabbana (released 2018). Top notes: Violet, Orange, Bergamot. Heart notes: Coffee, Pear, Iris, Orange Blossom, Rose. Base notes: Caramel, Vanilla, Patchouli. — Parfica open fragrance database
