The One Luminous Night

Everything I am going to say has been echoed below but lets take it up a few notches. This is the ultimate sweet amber scent and a masterpiece that will be remembered for many years to come. With many pseudo-niche houses cranking out scents for triple the price that don't smell half as good, Luminous Night is a definitive release. It proves that all you actually need is the stars aligning with a genius perfumer. Who'd of thought! As for the scent, it's only loosely related to the original The One in that it's a sweet, sexy sort of fragrance. But this is even sweeter and has a much more robust base. Somehow dialling up these two aspects works as all the elements have been kept in perfect balance. Off the top you get a blast of peppery citrus that quickly subsides to the sweet core at it's heart. Here you'll find the dominant 'date' note which comes across like a jammy fruit. I get shades of apple/raisins which is how you expect the smell of this dried fruit to be approximated. Needless to say it smells delicious, with mild green/floral notes taking the edge off, keeping things somewhat spicy, uplifting & fresh. Equally important and why it never feels too sweet, despite being extremely sweet, is the amber/incense base complimenting the overload of sticky fruits. This base is so finely judged and balanced with the heart that it never gets overbearing or synthetic smelling, despite adding considerable heft to the fragrance. Lastly throw in a dose of creamy sandalwood smoothing everything out and wow, what an amazing blend. All in all it's a designer themed fragrance executed to such high levels that transcends the sum of it's materials. You could call this niche, if niche represents the best perfume available on the market, but there's nothing particularly niche about this on paper. Again it's all about the execution and hats off to Herault for showing them how it's done. The One Luminous Night is opulence in a bottle. Easily approachable and a delight to wear as it surrounds you in a bubble of sweet, sparkling fruity delight. 10/10.

Blind buy. After waiting months for this to pop up at a reasonable price, I snagged it. I was on a wait list for notification, and within 3 hours of it coming back in stock it was sold out. I already own royal and mysterious night, which are great in their own way. I have read and watched so many reviews, and all I can say is - if you have a chance to buy this, do it. I've only been collecting for around a year and this by far is one of the best scents I've ever smelled. In the opening however, is where it might be the most hit or miss - many people say it's medicinal, some say its almost a bubblegum sweetness - for me, all I can think of is "plastic". Now, I first sprayed it on indoors where it's very warm. I could not really pick out much notes, it felt weak. I stepped outside, it's around 8 degrees Celsius here, and I immediately got slapped in the face with the projection on this. At the very least, it's above average. It's maybe not room filling, but definitely just short of that. After the first 20 minutes it smooths out to this dark, sweet, amber smell. A bit minty and green as some have said. It's just really something you have to experience. My one "gripe" - I eat dates pretty regularly so I was curious to see what a date note would smell like - I honestly am not sure I pick out what they're aiming for as "dates" - but nonetheless this takes nothing from my enjoyment . Would like to know what others think of the date specifically. This is only my first spray, and after 2 hours i can still smell my wrist from 2 feet away. I hope this helps anyone curious or on the fence. I've been eyeing this for months and I'm so glad I went for the blind buy.

This stuff is the creme de la creme of the The One line. I love the rest of the line almost totally but this just stands head and shoulders above them all. This actually comes across nice enough to be put out by a high end niche perfumer and nobody would be even slightly surprised. The open is sweet. Make no mistake about that but it’s a sweetness that has a rich backbone to it that isn’t like getting stiff armed but it has a sturdiness to the scent that lets you know it will be there for a while. A long while as it turns out. This has a definitive Initio Side Effect vibe to it (I’ve reviewed Side Effect as well) and that’s not a bad thing at all. The opening calms down into a really warm and seductive blend of spices and sweetness from the dates. The base notes all come up through as the open fades but stay back enough to let you know they’re waiting their turn to come forward. When this settles into the dry down the amber and incense just nestle into the sandalwood and some of the remaining spices for a date night scent that will just blow your mind. The fact that this is SO hard to find is understandable but frustrating so if you can get, get it. This is a sincerely recommended “If you even SEE it you MUST buy it” kind of fragrance. Fragrance - 10/10 Projection - 9/10 Sillage - 10/10 Longevity - 10/10 As stated above this is a MANDATORY recommend and you will just not regret it.

I got a 10 ml decant of this beauty from eBay and I love it. I don't think its being marketed right now in NorthAm. I guess its positioned primarily for the middle eastern market but hopefully soon. I have both the original and the One Mysterious Night but this is the one for me. The OG and TOMN are okay but I guess its just so so on my skin, meaning it didn't really give me that wow factor that it suits my skin chemistry, however this one does. They are not similar but somehow, it has this vibe reminiscent of Mancera Aoud Blue Notes because of that subtle fruity sweetness from the dates note which makes it even better for me. Also, I am not a big fan of amber accords but here it's nutty and well blended, simply gorgeous. Best for cold weather and formal occasion, I would wear this on social gatherings and evening encounters. But for the most part, I'll use it for my personal olfactive pleasure. As far as performance and projection, I guess it won’t let you down. I would give this nocturnal wonder a 9.5/10 “Let us spread the scents of peace and kindness. The two most beautiful fragrance in the world that will cost you nothing and will get you a totally different kind of compliments” 🙏

Dolce & Gabbana's The One Luminous Night is a true hidden gem in the world of fragrances, a delightful surprise that deserves far more recognition. This scent unveils an enchanting olfactory journey that is both unique and captivating. The opening notes immediately grab your attention with a burst of vibrant bergamot and mandarin, setting the stage for the luminous experience that follows. As the fragrance evolves, a rich floral heart emerges, boasting an alluring blend of tuberose and jasmine. What truly makes Luminous Night stand out is its artful balance of warmth and sensuality in the dry-down, where a velvety vanilla and amber accord takes center stage. This fragrance manages to strike a perfect equilibrium, creating an unforgettable fragrance that exudes sophistication without being overpowering. The longevity is impressive for a 'the one' flanker, making it ideal for those special evenings where you want your scent to leave a lasting impression. For those seeking a unique and alluring fragrance that remains under the radar, Dolce & Gabbana's The One Luminous Night is a discovery worth making – a gem waiting to be cherished by connoisseurs of fine scents.

D&G The one, was one of my favourite fragrances when it first came out, but the following flankers didn't stir interest, with the positive exception of The One Gentleman. Luminous night is quite the "beacon in the dark", an evening scent of sorts, sweet & sophisticated, but not your outwardly sweetness like ala One million and crew. Grand stuff this, the opening is fresh and peppery, the "date" note or more likely "date syrup" and the Geranium builds up the subdued sweetness. The base notes are not surprisingly, dependent on amber, with the added incense and sandalwood notes, which create the sweet, velvet, vanilla vibe in the drydown. I found this to be the best amongst the three limited edition releases. You do get the D&G the one DNA but minus the tobacco All seasonal scent? It is an evening scent for spring time IMO, but otherwise quite good for winter and autumn wear Unisex? More geared towards the masculine side Blind buy worthy? Test it before buying, but still a safe bet for the autumn and winter seasons Performance? Longevity, 8 to 9 hours, with moderate projection and sillage

I got it yesterday. One little spray on my arm to test it, and it was more than enough. One hour outdoors, and the rest on a controlled environment (AC). It last on my skin easily 10+ hours, and with good projection. The first 3-4 hours was projecting well. After that, it was on a close bubble and only people close to me could smell it, but it was present for hours. The top notes are detectable immediately. The black pepper stays longer, and the dates gives this sweet aspect that balances off the sharpness of the black pepper. The incense was light, not Church type. Overall, a great experience. As a reference: it has a similar performance than Sauvage Elixir. I thought it would be very challenging but it was perfectly fine. As a side note, I usually sneeze when I smell pepper, and this one made me sneeze in a few occasions during my test. It’s hard to get it. I found mine online from a reputable seller. I would suggest getting a decant and tested it. Again, is not challenging (at least to me), but if you only wear light fragrances, this will take you to a different place for sure.

The One EDP is a masterpiece. Yet, somehow this manages to be orders of magnitude better. I don't know what sort of secret ethereal elixir they added to this, but it takes it into the realm of fantasy. This is Merlin's signature scent. If the high elves of middle earth created a fragrance, it would be this. To me, this is one of those scents that smells so unbelievably good that it could serve to some as an endgame to a fragrance journey. Smooth, dark, sensual, delicious, regal, unique. "Luminous Night" is such a banger name for a fragrance like this. The bottle is gorgeous too. A monolith in perfumery towering high above the rest of the generic blue designer slop, and one of the best fragrance purchases I've ever made. This must be what Aladdin's magic carpet ride felt like. Truly stunning. It would haunt me forever if I smelled this on someone and was never able to find out what they were wearing. This should not be as out of reach as it is for a designer scent. Easiest 10/10 of my life. I am diamond fisted on this juice.

Just got this in today. I got it from Frangrancebuy. Absolutely gorgeous! I am so happy I finally got a bottle. It is better than I expected. This is also my first and only D&B fragrance, I have tried The One EDP in stores and it is awesome, but this is its own thing. You can smell similarities but I think this is unique. I blind bought this (of course) and I couldn't be happier! If these kind of frags are your jam, get you some! Good luck! I will come back and add to this review after some time spent with it. 2/18/23: Masterpiece! I have been loving this since day one. It is subtle but permeates. I wish it was louder but again, it does permeate. Addictive as anything I own! Slight peppery woody sweetness is incredible. Easy blind buy. Bottle is one of my favorites as well. It is heavy and a gorgeous blue with the gold writing and cap. It sells out quick for a reason, I may even try to get a second bottle lol. My collection is already way bigger than it needs to be, though. 3-5-23 Addiction in a bottle!

The reviewer FAST below is quite correct in stating that this smells like Initio's Side Effect, but this comes through in the late dry-down. I actually get a subtle and fleeting sweet tobacco in this stage of the wear. For the most part, however, The One Luminous Night is a dominant date note fragrance. I was considerably apprehensive about trying this one because black pepper and I aren't compatible, but the pepper is virtually absent here. Phew! This is a sweet fragrance, with that date note front and centre throughout the wearing. It could get a bit too much for those who aren't partial to sweet scents, so I would encourage sampling first. But I like this a lot. It is gorgeous. Excellent performance - I am getting 12+ hours. The One Luminous Night will work so well for the colder seasons and evenings. A fragrance that is unique to my nose, and will have you smelling distinctive.

If you are looking for something that will substitute Luminous Night, the best one that I've found thus far, is Lumière Garçon Fragrance World. I've tried Art of Arabia III by Lattafa, and Brave Heart, and will say that Brave Heart is closer than Art of Arabia III, but is really weak. Lumière Garçon Fragrance World hits the sweet spot for $45 if you're looking for something under $230... I also think Lumière Garçon Fragrance World is closer than Initio Side Effect, which I think leans pretty far away from Luminous Night, but is in the same ballpark. I'm just trying to put a friendly message out there because Art of Arabia III is being hyped up big time, and it's very floral, and is not as close as you'd think to the OG. Luminous Night is a beautiful frag, but virtually impossible to get at a reasonable price. Cheers!!!

Got the scent in today, at first wear I can tell you it is incredible. For me it opens much the same that it matures, and I love scents like that. For me, this is a richly woody scent that is brightened up by the sweet accords (bergamont and dates from the note breakdown), laced with a wisp of incense for a slightly smoky balance and a touch of powdery elegance. The amber is just present enough to provide some familiarity to 'The One' OG. This is how woods should be used in fragrance in my opinion. To provide the depth and a robust base, but have enough balance from sweet and aromatic accords to invigorate and elevate it. Too many wood forward scents dry to a stale, brittle maturation. But not this. Definitely recommend picking this up if you can find it. Designer name, niche type of delivery (for me).

This is brilliant. The comparisons to Side Effect particular in the opening are apt. There's a similar bubblegumeyness at the start, that to me thankfully wears off very quickly, whereas I find Side Effect it remains more, but there's still another similarity - even though I feel like Side Effect is some kind of hybrid of cherry and strawberry liqueur, and this is meant to be dates, there's some similar way the sweet note smells to me with both. Here there's thick, rich, creamy sandalwood providing foundation, over which there's fresh brightness like certain spirits like Pernod or Jagermeister. The pepper emerges as that brightness fades. The drydown is wonderful. Sort of dates and ice cream. Fresh, fruity, creamy, peppery, incense. A daytime scent for deep thinkers. Herault is a genius.

This is a nice scent indeed. It's cozy warm fresh sweet and slightly smokey. It reminds me CK Euphoria Amber Gold a lot. I wish it had a bigger punch though. Atomizer on this is awful. It really could utilize one similar to PdMs that sprays more and narrower. After trying The One EDT and EDP I decided this line wasn't for me. However, many talking about this and I found a bottle at a reasonable price, I decided to give it a try and yup this doesn't have much in common with the EDP or EDT. It reminds me those but whatever it is, is gone after 5-10 mins. If you really like this, I highly recommend giving CK Euphoria Amber Gold a try if you can find a bottle at a reasonable price though and thank me later 😉

this surprised me. unique fresh spicy middle eastern scent. the more n more i get whiffs of it the better it gets. fast skipped opening of basil n pepper. goes straight into sweet dates and i love dates. its not a gourmand at all but i pick up on the date note so much that it makes me wanna eat some. supported with a very full sage n geranium giving it a ''bubble soap'' rose accord. fresh, sweet, very intriguing, deep. strong base of amber, incense and sandalwood. i love this tbh i can see this work in slightly warm spring days and colder summer nights, its not too dense or sweet. sooo good. i might pick up a bottle of this one day if i can find it. EDIT: check out Lumiere Garcon. new improved version

I have been searching day and night for this fragrance and couldn’t get my hands on it until TODAY! I couldn’t resist the urge to test it and see how it performs. Once I sprayed it on, I instantly fell in love with this scent. It’s peak oriental perfumery; no wonder the “special edition” tag and middle eastern marketing. Also, do not listen to what fragrance reviewers say, you can rock this even during the day and warmer weather, it’s a middle eastern fragrance!!! This was the last bottle that my perfume dealer/local discounter had and he sold it to me at a good price (80$). It’s like this bottle was waiting for me... 10/10 - Everything is perfect about this perfume

Nose Note #1088 I have first had French Avenue Lumiere Garcon and although (judging from memory) DG is a bit different, but ultimately French Avenue made an amazing dupe. Mysterious Night is somewhat more transparent, a little less dense and less centered on the note of dates. It even has a subtle minty feeling, but that's it. Lumiere Garcon is spot on. Performance-wise they are just the same - perform great. Also I have to say, this is very similar to Blonde Amber, but I prefer the DG DNA, it's richer and have this amazing dates facet. Super elegant. Or else, take MFK Grand Soir and add two layers of complexity on top. Just great. 9/10

This is one of my favorite fragrances in my collection. It's simple yet sophisticated. The opening has a subtle intensity with a noticeable black pepper note, giving it a mild spice. But the dry down is where it really shines. I pick up hints of dates, floral notes, and a warm amber. The combination of amber and dates is just magical. The date note is so unique and blends beautifully. It's definitely a compliment getter. I think it's a great blind buy and, in my opinion, the BEST "The One" in the Dolce & Gabbana collection. It's the perfect scent for a date night. I’m not sure why it's underrated in the U.S., but I’m not complaining!

Hmm... just got it, interesting one This shares very little similarity to the original The One Edp. To my nose, it's like a flanker of Guerlain Lomme Ideal(Edp/extreme, somewhere between) and adding some The One DNA to it. The woodiness is more toward powdery side, the spiciness was toned down, and there's a touch of fruity sweetness (Yes the way this presented really reminds me of Lomme Ideal) Powdery, elegant, complex. A quality night time frag makes you smell gentlemanly, not much toward sexy side though. Nah, much better than Mysterious Night by the way. That one with heavy rose/saffron was really hard to put on for a man.

Just came from the Hospital, looks like you can't drink 100ml of Luminous Night But let's not talk about the taste, rather than the smell If somebody is wearing this, I would follow them until Police arrests me for human stalking My family probably won't eat for a week because a scalper took 150$ from my piggy bank, but at least I will smell like sweat from a Greek God If I could choose between a Night with Megan Fox or a Luminous Night, you know my skin would be soaking wet in this Dolce Gabbana creation If you let the sprayer cough in your fuel tank, your car will never need a refill 10/10 masterpiece

I bought this fragrance in October of 2022 after after seeing a fragrance review of it on YouTube. I don't normally buy fragrances off of reviews but I'm glad I did. I paid all but $84 for this on FragranceNet. Now I see this fragrance going for much as $500+ dollars on EBay. Excellent as this fragrance was masterfully made, I wouldn't pay more than $150 for it. For those trying to get a bottle of this, there's a clone made by Fragrance World called "Moonlit Night". For only $35, It's about 90% on copying the scent of Luminous Night. I bought a bottle so I won't burn through my bottle of LN.

This is the best of the 3 exclusive edition flankers in my opinion. & that's a huge compliment because I don't consider any of them to be at all bad. I love them all for different reasons, but this one is special. If you took The One EDP & turned up the spice, threw in a little black pepper, & added a unique sweet date note you'd get this incredible scent. & it lasts longer & projects more than The One EDP. I got about 8-10 hours & a decent 3-4 feet of projection. I never thought I'd find a flanker that could actually compete with The One EDP, but this one is definitely up there for me.

My go to "feeling happy and confident" scent. You can't be in a bad mood wearing Luminous Night. Its sultry amber with sweetness that isn't gourmand, just perfection. It lasts well into 6+ hours and an arm length sillage for 2-3 hours. Really I couldn't ask for more when it comes to a designer scent from uniqueness, to depth, to longevity, and the wow factor. I bought it for the amazing date note which is present in the sweetness. You don't need an occasion to wear this. Wearing this is the occasion. Pricey, but if you want to treat yourself, buy it. It doesn't disappoint.

3 sprays is all you need. If you go heavy, you can get nose blind. This is another blue beast, like Sauvage Elixir, Interlude Man Black Iris. I am wearing this today and...... it’s a gorgeous fragrance. The temperature dropped this morning so I am rocking it. 3 sprays is enough, folks. You can do as many as you want but for me, that’s enough. I own Royal Night, which I made a decent dent on it, but I don’t think I will sell this one. If you are interested in Royal Night, I have a 150ml at 85% bottle, batch from 2017. The One Luminous Night is on my top 10.

I finally found this for my husband, and I think this is probably one of the top 10 designer fragrances available right now. It's assuredly in the top 20, for me. Other than the middle of a 95* day, I can't think of a time that this would not be suitable and welcome. Such a nice, cozy scent that's not too gourmand-ish. If you can't find this, the FW dupe is almost a dead ringer for it. We have both, and if you blind folded me, I'm not entirely certain I could tell them apart.

This fragrance is the real deal! It most definitely smells very posh and being for the mature wearer like 30’s + and exudes class! If middle eastern royalty had a scent I would imagine this would be it! At about 15-20 minutes into the dry down is where the magic begins. As the reviewer said below me this absolutely has niche quality to it and in my opinion even some of the best high end designers don’t come close to its quality and craftsmanship. A+ in my book!!!

I bought this fragrance for around $95 a few months ago and it is one of the best fragrance purchases I have made. This fragrance is absolutely divine if you see it (for a fair price, and it is 100% worth retail) pull the trigger while you still have the chance or I will gladly purchase myself a backup bottle. You get the slightly powdery sweetness from the dates and ambers while the woods, spices, and incense perfectly play in the background. 10/10 fragrance

I was at lost on which one of the line i should get ,luckily enough i found this for sale for 40$! So i had to get it without thinking,let me tell you i have never smelled such unique scent profile,it's absolutely wonderful ,the date note is spot on and the drydown is so boozy and smoky which makes it sexy . i assure you it's the best in the line of The One! edit : i just got a sample of SWY absolutely and i found it 80 percent similair somehow!

An outstanding scent- the date accord is different (in a good way) and the incense comes through strongly on my skin. I guess my nose is different than some here as I don't think it strongly mimics Side Effect (I have that one as well). I purchased mine as a tester (w/cap) about two years ago for around $65.00, which I thought was a high price at the time. Yeah, I'm still kicking myself in the a$$ for not buying more than one...

This to me is by far the BEST out of all the flankers from the D&G “The One” line up. When you factor in overall performance, scent profile, uniqueness & access to even obtain this iteration, you won’t find a better one. They amped up the incense in this one, with a slight sweetness to it, due to the addition of dates. This has both niche & designer qualities to it, which is why I rank it as the best of the lineup. 10/10

Bring this back D&G ffs I've been looking for this for ages!! High quality beautiful fragrance that the most respected niche houses would be proud of. The best scent Dolce and Gabbana has ever created and you can't buy it WTF! I had the chance to buy a bottle at an airport 2 years ago and I've been regretting not buying it ever since. F U D&G if you won't bring this to the masses, you know we want it. Thanks, bye!

I wore this a couple times and it’s very nice! When I first put it on I get a peppery date smell and over time the Smokey incense starts to steal the show then as it fully drys down it smells a lot like the original the one with less tobacco. Overall it’s worth the hype. Definitely gives me vibes of Middle East but with a North American twist. It’s very strong as well and seems to project well. Very happy! 9/10

At the opening there is a resemblance to the initio side effect, then comes the fruity aroma of bergamote mixed with lavender and a little apple, typical of de marly layton perfume without vanilla, replaced by sweet dates and incense which makes this perfume arabic. In drydown, I smell the initio side effect again, the longevity is pretty good 8 hours+.i like this best flanker from dolce gabbana the one.

I played golf while wearing this the other day, and my buddy text me a day later asking what I was wearing. He said it “smelled really good”. He couldn’t believe it was $150 online though. So I pushed him toward The One EDP because it was my first community suggested buy, and was what got me into fragrances. This is a 10/10 Buy it out of respect for The One EDP Wear it because it lasts 2x as long

My god what a change , i got this fragrance months ago and at the beginning i didn't think much of it , it was decent but a "collector" fragrance , now i got the edp version to say what the hype is all about and its ok but weak as hell , i told myself let me compare them side to side and boi bo boi the luminous night became very strong and the smokey date is just addicting , I'm in love for real

As a woman, this is amazing! I find it very unisex, it’s sweet, it’s sexy, it’s a little edgy. Luminous Night has excellent longevity and projection. I can’t tell you how much I enjoy wearing this fragrance and it always gets me compliments, especially from women lol. I’ve also tried Royal Night and Mysterious Night and they pale in comparison. If you find this at a decent price grab it!

Guerlain L'Homme Ideal EDP is my signature date night fragrance, but this just might overtake it as my favourite for date nights. The dates in this make it incredibly sexy and intoxicating. You will get compliments 99.9% of the time if you wear this to a fancy dinner or a black tie event. Thankfully I have 2 backup bottles as this is difficult to find and it's fetching niche prices.

Still love this one. Because I only have the one bottle which is about 75% full, I don't actually wear it much. I ended up getting a bottle of Side Effect and they are very similar, which I didn't really realize to I had them both at home. I have never tried a dupe, nor will I. Initio Side Effect would probably be a more quality similarity if that's what you're looking for.

After reading the guy below my comment’s comment (sorry for the grammar lol) I went back and sprayed my my bottle (owned since December 2022) & yea it totally changed, the dates are more pronounced now and the freshness is stronger, it’s also has a chocolate way in the background. This smell good af! I hope D&G returns to the The One line there is a lot of potential here.

This stuff is amazing! All though it is complex and rich, it is also playful and very versatile due to the fruity light notes. I don't think I'd wear it on a hot summer day if I'm going to be outdoors, but I still may. It may not be my absolute favorite at any given time, but I also never tire of the scent; I can't say that about many other fragrances in my collection.

Just bought a sample recently this fragrance is amazing. You get peppery basil opening thats smooth and not too harsh but once you get to the dry down??? I wanted to take a bite out of myself. The sweetness mixed with the sandalwood really puts this on top for me. Not sure if it projects too well but its enough for me to smell it throughout the day. 9/10 for me.

How....is this like side effect? Its not even more then a note that they share...this is madness 🧐, Luminous is by far a better perfume, much weaker in performance ofcs but its not overly sweet or femenin, for a designer Luminous is very well done and its a superior version off the og, the basil is shining in this one and leaves a radiant scent trail.

The One EDP is my ATF and my signature scent, but Luminous Night is making me rethink it. It’s like a niche version of the Original with a slightly spicy middle eastern vibe. I’m seriously thinking of getting a backup bottle while I can as it’s hard to find in the USA. Don’t sleep on this folks - if you like The One, then you’ll love this! 10/10

Because this was discontinued, I've had to settle for a pair of dupes for the past few years, but I finally scored a full bottle of the real thing and I have to say the dupes just don't quite match this. The dates, amber, incense and sandalwood really stand out. It's sweet but not overwhelming or tacky. Scent 8/10, longevity 9/10, sillage 8/10.

All these votes and sadly most probably never even tried it.. this website is terrible for finding out if a fragrance is good. these niche punks ruin everything. Well the aventus fan boys ruin everything.. This isn't a bad fragrance. It's complex, sweet,smooth and dark and a love at first sniff. Mysterious night is still my favorite though.

In my opinion, this is currently the sexiest date night fragrance you can buy at the moment (if you can find it) Quite possibly the greatest fragrance D&G has ever produced. Do not buy one bottle, you absolutely need to buy back ups as you will probably never find it again without having to take out a loan to afford a bottle in a few years.

The best D&G flanker out there, you'd gladly pay a lot more if this was sold by an expensive niche brand, it is complex, mysterious, and masculine. The perfectly balanced sweet smell can be pulled off on different occasions. Scent: 10/10 Projection: 10/10 Longevity: 9/10 Value: Hard to get a hold of, if you find it even overpriced, get it

Absolutely sexy fragrance, the date note in it is just so well done and photorealistic. I have swy oud and there is a slight similarity but it's very little and they're very different fragrances. Lasts about 6-8 hours for me with medium but mostly soft projection. I got it for around 110 usd and it's honestly not worth any more than that.

Tobacco isnt listed?!?!?! This has the opening intensity of Mancera Red Tobacco!! It's almost like Red Tobacco, The One, Spicebomb Night Vision, and Spicebomb Extreme had a beautiful love child! This stuff is STRONG!! These are my initial thoughts, not a review but holy smokes does it smell delicious!! THIS SHIT IS STRRROONNGG!!!!!!!! lol

Sexy fly guy shit. Not really a clubbing scent but a confident warm and naturally inviting vibe. It's not audacious but rather present. WTF does D&G not market these flankers in the US? Same with Armani with the Stronger flankers? Bottles are sky rocketing on Ebay so your best bet is on FB Marketplace in which prices are reasonable.
