Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Dolce Floral Drops EDT
This one's a divisive beast. Some adore its fresh, clean simplicity, finding it a perfect everyday floral. Others dismiss it as a weak, unoriginal disappointment with poor performance, often compared to glorified fabric softener. You'll either love its gentle charm or sniff and move on.

Our Verdict - Flowery Water For Women EDP
A budget take on Dolce & Gabbana Dolce Floral Drops, Flowery Water captures the dewy apple-and-white-flower freshness of the original. As an EDP it carries a touch more body than the famously light, short-lived Dolce, while staying just as easygoing.
