Just a few days after Fashion Week, everyone feels the urge to adorn their bodies in surprising ways. Textiles and delicate, voluptuous materials are obviously on everyone’s mind, and paradoxically the desire to envelop them in exquisite flagrance may also arise. Dolce & Gabbana’s creativity makes it easy to act. Their latest range, all about the exaltation of Mediterranean flavors, allows us to indulge in unexpected pleasures this time of year. Sicily, bathed in sunshine, a land of paradoxes between modernity and tradition, seems to emerge from this fragrance to offer its quintessential scents.
Highlighted by Maupassant’s Voyage en Sicile, 1885, the island embodies an atypical alliance of fragrances, and is described as a Museum of Architecture. There’s no doubt that Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana experience the historicity and universality of the place. It inspires them with feelings and sensations. Passion, love, freedom and more influence their creativity.
Two flagrances exist, nuanced, subtly diverse like a man and a woman. Two new propositions destined to become Dolce & Gabbana classics. The all-male version refers to the Italian masculine ideal, a delicate alliance of strength, elegance and animal attraction.
The fragrance encapsulates accents of neroli with tangy tangerine and bergamot. Peppery, cedarwood and tobacco notes round out the structure.
The redefined feminine version is an ode to the Italian woman. Between strength and delicacy, and with an animalistic sensuality, the idea of a free, fearless woman emerges. Iconic, she captivates the eye.
Noah Mills and Laetitia Casta embody the two versions, respectively. Mario Testino has perfectly captured the brand’s referents. This ideal Italy reflects the 50’s, Mina’s sultry melodies, the Dolce Vità.
