My Devotion Eau de Parfum Intense

I smelled this at Ulta and passed on it at first. I was confused by this scent because it smells nothing like the other Devotions and I found it boring. But each time I was in Ulta, I kept going back and smelling this. Finally, I sprayed myself and I was addicted. This is magical on skin. What I first thought was just another floral designer perfume, is in reality a beautiful floral/gourmand. It is rich and creamy from the vanilla but fresh and bright from the florals at the same time. I find the peony and pear blossom in My Devotion to be intoxicating. The orange blossom note is light and crisp. I also pick up on something fruity in the background, but it is very light and is not tart or juicy. It has fresh and floral notes, but I would not describe this as a typical freshy perfume. This has some weight and density from the Ambroxan and Amberwood, but it is well balanced and I can hardly pick those notes up, I get more of a creamy pink marshmallow scent. This is my favorite addition to my collection this year, it is a 10/10, The performance is excellent. I get 8 hours+ of wear with a moderate silage, and a robust scent bubble that flutters around in the air. I mentioned above that it does have density and it could be worn year round, but this is not out of place in summer heat. The bottle is lovely. I have always been a fan of devotion bottle design. It is very romantic and the muted pink bottle looks the way this perfume smells. This is an excellent perfume to layer with. I have not found a combo I disliked. Try it with, Floral Street Wonderland Peony, BDK Impadia, Being Frenche Desert Rose, and Flowerbomb for a sweet floral forward combo. Try it with Sol De Janerio Cheirosa 68 to make it fruity. But to smell like a princess pair My Devotion with Yum Boujee Marshmallow or Delizia De Marshmallow.

This such a pretty scent, I am loving it!!! I sprayed it at Sephora and got a sample vial. It's sweet and fruity, with a nice freshness from the florals, and a beautiful warmth and body from the amber and vanilla. Very different from the other two Devotion perfumes. I agree that there's something almost marshmallow-y about it. Even though it's quite floral it's still hitting me as gourmand, in the beginning at least. I want to eat candy or something that tastes like how the fruity opening smells. The mid is unsurprisingly sweet floral, but the fruitiness sticks around for a good while. I'm gonna need a full bottle, unfortunately. I don't think this will be for everyone, though. Some may find it too sweet, or too floral. This and LVEB Vanille Nude are my favorites of the recent pale pink/cream colored flankers that have come out recently. I guess the LVEB VN is more of it's own thing though, while IMO My Devotion, I Want Choo With Love, and DBIR Ivory kind of have a similar vibe going on beyond just being released around the same time (sweet but very fresh fruity florals with some "thickness" to them that makes them almost a bit gourmand, some more than others. From most to least "gourmand" I would put My Devotion, DBIR Ivory, IWCWL) Edit: I almost bought a gift set of this during a sale but upon revisiting my sample before purchasing, I realized that this scent isn't for me during the colder months. I still absolutely love it but there's something to it that's so warm, almost tropical, and I really would only wear it in Spring/Summer. Going to hold off for now because what's the point in getting it if I'm not going to wear it for the next six months. I'm also a bit concerned about the lasting power.

For my 1st time ever I went in store at Sephora and sampled my heart away trying almost every perfume, and to my surprise this is the one that stuck out to me the most!!! This really caught me off guard. 🍐This opens with pear blossom which comes across to me like a sweet fresh pear. Very sweet like candy, fruity juicy & bright 😍 Sparkling almost. It has a clean shampoo-y vibe. A lil tart and green in the beginning but in the best way (mouthwatering). 🫐 This also definitely has a berry-like quality to it from the cassis which I LOVE so much!! It’s like sweet pear + berries and vanilla 🧁 🌸 The florals in this are so pretty and easy to love! They’re sweet, airy, whimsical and add such a fun feminine vibe to this fragrance. I’m not much of a floral lover but this fragrance makes me feel like I am. I don’t pick up on any noticeable orange blossom. 🍦 The VANILLA in this is 😍😍😍 Soooooo good. It’s equally creamy as it is milky, very smooth. It has a weight & density to it but it’s still airy, fluffy and enveloping at the same time. It just wraps itself gently around the other notes and creates the most gorgeous combo of sweet bright and fruity + feminine florals + a base of the most heavenly creamy milky vanilla. This literally just smells HEAVENLY and It feels so special for some reason. I am shocked at how much I love this and am so glad I was able to try it in store bc I would’ve never had this in my collection otherwise. If you like super feminine, sweet fruity scents with a creamy vanilla base, I feel like you would be obsessed with this. It truly feels like it was done very well. 🥹🍐🫐🌸🍦🤌💋

Instantly fell in love. Haven’t stopped wearing it since. It’s up there with my favorites now. Gorgeous, creamy, sweet, slightly fruity and floral. Really an addictive combination. Seriously I’m buying it bc I’m addicted. It’s so unique yet somehow comfortably girly at the same time. Incredibly feminine. 🩷 Longevity and sillage are good, wears a lot better outside of the store for some reason. It’s powerful but soft. Even at the end of the day when I’m home from work, I smell it in small but powerful waves. Out of the surge of vanilla releases this year, few of them really impressed me. This one definitely being one of the few. Many vanilla based perfumes just don’t stand out to me. I’m picky with vanilla, but I’ve found that madascar vanilla always appeals to me. I just need vanilla to smell expensive and of high quality, it needs to blend and compliment the other notes very well. Definitely my favorite D&G scent!! Not even a fan of the other Devotions but this is a whole different thing. I’m already excited to see what else they’ll do with this formula. It’s incredibly pleasing so I hope they build off of it, maybe creating a more tropical version? Please ?! COMING BACK to add two things: It keeps impressing me. It’s very very long lasting. I love when I put on my jacket and it still smells like it days later. Or when I smell it steam off in the shower. Really stays true to the whole “intense” part. Also, I didn’t mention the amber but after wearing it for several weeks now, I need to give it the praise it deserves. It definitely adds to the magic. ✨
