Dolce & Gabbana presents Velvet Vetiver, a sophisticated and masterful Oriental Woody fragrance designed for both women and men. As one of the inaugural scents of the prestigious Velvet Collection, launched in 2011, this fragrance was crafted by the renowned perfumer Rodrigo Flores-Roux. It is inspired by the scent of the Mediterranean summer, capturing the essence of the Italian coastline where the sea meets the sun-drenched earth. This is the ideal fragrance for the individual who appreciates an aromatic profile that is both ruggedly natural and impeccably polished.

The composition is a streamlined yet powerful trio of high-quality ingredients. It centers around a heart of Vetiver, providing a smoky, earthy, and slightly salty woody base. This is brilliantly contrasted by the lush, milky sweetness of Black Fig, which adds a Mediterranean fruitiness and a velvety texture to the scent. The fragrance is further elevated by the sharp, resinous green notes of Galbanum, creating a sophisticated opening that feels like a fresh breeze through wild coastal greenery.

Key Notes: Vetiver, Black Fig, and Galbanum.

How to Use:

Pulse Points: Apply to the inside of your wrists and the base of your throat. The warmth of your skin is essential to allow the resinous galbanum and smoky vetiver to transition smoothly into the creamy fig heart.

Avoid Rubbing: Gently spray and allow the fragrance to air-dry. Rubbing the skin can break down the green molecules of the galbanum, causing the fragrance to lose its sharp, refreshing "forest" opening.

Application Tip: For enhanced longevity, apply to well-hydrated skin. The earthy vetiver base note adheres exceptionally well to moisture, helping the scent maintain its sophisticated, woody trail throughout the day.

Versatile Wear: Due to its balanced green and woody nature, Velvet Vetiver is exceptionally versatile. It performs beautifully in warmer weather, where the heat allows the fig note to become more succulent and solar.
