Dolce Bacio

Soft, irresistible and classy Apricot in traditional Rose Patchouli When I was trying Dolce Bacio for the first time my first thought was "basic Rose Patchouli" and I was thinking Apricot didn't play a big enough role in the scent. It felt like it was hiding too long the first few times I used it. However, I sprayed it one day when I went to the gym and my husband immediately asked what scent I was wearing and you could see from his face that he liked the smell. Since that I have been totally in love with it and I definitely need a full bottle of it. Dolce Bacio opens up with a beautiful, powerful yet fresh and airy rose and green, bright, earthy Patchouli, and right at the beginning there is no hint of Apricot. That's why it feels so familiar because I love roses and I love Rose Patchouli scents, I have plenty of them. There has to be something special about the scent for me to need another one for my collection. However, it only takes half an hour and Apricot is clearly noticeable. There's nothing groundbreaking about this scent, but like La baguette (Fendi), it works in all its simplicity, this one is also sweetly charming and seductive. Apricot brings just the right amount of something extra to the scent to make it work and be interesting. It's not really sweet, nor is it overtly juicy, but it makes the scent velvety and slightly powdery with a subtle Apricot aroma. After my initial disappointment, my opinion has changed and I like that the scent is not so strongly fruity nor sweet. For this reason, the scent remains elegant and does not become playful or too youthful. As the scent develops, the rose and patchouli become gentler and the apricot becomes clearer, but each role remains until the end. This has nothing to do with Trésor which is very sweet, clearly fruity perfume. The longevity and sillage are both great and the scent stays in the clothes many days. Thank you for reading, I hope my review was helpful. I would appreciate a lot if you want to follow me on IG and/or YouTube (English subtitles): @ninamariahperfumes It gives me a lot of motivation to write more.🤗

Gorgeous and unique scent. The dry down doesn’t smell exactly like tresor Lancôme but same vibe. I finally got a full size bottle after two years on my wishlist. It’s so expensive that I asked my daughter who went to Italy to get from Roma airport duty free. Helped me save some money

I like this one, although I am generally not a patchourose genre devotee. Lovely sunny apricot softens the nuclear Bulgarian Rose/oakmoss/patchouli, giving it a soft and gentle edge and just a touch of sweetness. Overall, very nice and classy. A special occasion scent, not for every day wear.

Strawberry of Gris Dior is replaced by Apricot.

Dolce Bacio - Fendi is a very rose and patchouli heavy fragrance, it's just NICE...it's not worth the price point what so ever for what it is (£270), it's blended nicely, but other than that...meh, there isn't much going for it, if you're wanting a "nice" simple fragrance, this might be for you if you like a clean rose and patchouli smell.
