Velvet Pure

Velvet Pure by Dolce&Gabbana is a floral fragrance from 2016, with narcissus and jasmine at its heart and a green, woody and resinous frame around them.

Neroli opens it with a fresh, honeyed citrus-floral brightness, and galbanum and fig leaf add a sharp, green, sappy note, like crushed stems and leaves. In the heart, narcissus brings a rich, slightly animalic floral depth, jasmine a creamy warmth, and orris root a soft powder. The base leans earthy and warm: Haitian vetiver adds a dry, smoky grassiness, and labdanum a resinous, amber-like glow.

Made with women in mind, it suits those who like florals with an unusual, slightly wild green edge rather than sweet bouquets. The green notes make it well suited to spring, while the vetiver and labdanum give it depth for autumn days. It is a good fit for daytime, the office and cultural outings, and should appeal to anyone who enjoys refined, green white florals with a touch of mystery.
