Sicily

by Nathalie Lorson

Dolce & Gabbana Sicily is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2003, created by Nathalie Lorson. The fragrance opens with Banana, Orange Blossom, Aldehydes, and Bergamot, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, Hibiscus, and Hyacinth, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood, Musk, and Heliotrope.

Our verdict on Sicily: Acquired

A legendary, much-missed gem that evokes sophisticated Italian glamour with its unique blend of creamy banana, sparkling aldehydes, and luxurious soapiness. Loved by many, but its striking, sometimes 'old-school' character means it's not for everyone.

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer Fall

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Office Casual

Its clean, elegant, and sophisticated profile makes it suitable for date nights and formal occasions, while a softer application can work for casual wear. The presence of aldehydes and a strong scent profile may be too assertive for some office environments, and it's certainly not a sport scent.

About

Sicily opens with a vibrant, almost tropical pop of banana and bright aldehydes, underpinned by sweet orange blossom and honeysuckle. This quickly transitions to a clean, creamy heart of white florals and a hint of spicy nutmeg, evoking high-end soap. The dry down is a warm, musky blend of sandalwood and heliotrope, leaving a lasting impression of clean skin and sun-baked elegance.
