Adolfo Domínguez Unica is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2017, created by Ramón Monegal. Unica opens with Shiso, Pink Pepper, and Star Anise, settles into a heart of Jasmin Sambac, Patchouli, and Peony, and dries down to a base of Musk, Cedar, and Praline. Adolfo Domínguez's Unica carries an Acquired verdict, a green-led wear.

Unica mixes a spiced, herbal opening with a floral heart and a sweet praline base. Star anise and shiso make it more interesting than a standard floral. A confident choice if you like florals with a bit of bite and a sweet landing.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Unica opens with star anise, shiso and pink pepper, a spicy and herbal start. The heart brings peony and jasmine sambac together with patchouli, floral and earthy at once. The base is musk, cedar and praline, which adds woody warmth and a sweet, nutty finish. It is a floral scent with spice up top and gourmand sweetness underneath.
