Which Should You Buy?
Dolce & Gabbana The One EDT is a divisive one. While many hail its warm, sexy aroma as a date night classic, equally many decry its notoriously poor performance. It's a gorgeous scent, but be prepared for it to fade into an intimate skin scent far quicker than you'd like.
A workable dupe of Dolce & Gabbana The One for Men - the citrus-spice opening and amber-tobacco base are both present, but the blend feels flatter and more linear than the original's slow-building warmth.
