Our Verdict - 286 Rose The One EDP
No. 286 rides on the same rose-fruity-musk skeleton as Dolce & Gabbana's Rose The One, but the rose reads thinner and the black currant top note louder and more artificial; the sandalwood-musk drydown fades noticeably sooner than the original's slow, creamy finish.
