Dolce Melodia

If you know Dulce Diablo, this smells EXACTLY like DD. I sprayed it and thought, ‘where have I smelled this?’ No, not Erba Pura, not Jasmine Whisp...Dulce Diablo! Too bad they’re both expensive perfumes so I don’t think you’re saving too much money buying one or the other. Fruity, slightly gourmand, summer gourmand. EDIT: Um, no. I just bought Dulce Diablo and it DOES NOT smell like Dolce Melodia, my decant from Scent Split smells like Dolce Melodia and I figured out why, because Scent Split SENT ME THE WRONG FRAGRANCE!!!I ordered Dulce Diablo and they sent me DOLCE MELODIA!!!! This literally smells EXACTLY like my sample I spent 30-40$ on. Sadly, I’m out $280. This scent, I’ve been loving it since I got it. It’s divine. It reminds me of Viva La Juicy but niche and more refined so if that was your jam back in the day, you WILL love this. I can’t imagine anyone not liking this. It’s very crowd pleasing. A girl at work is getting married and I let her use my decant and she loved it. Everyone at work was going on about how good it smelled. The notes look simple, but the smell is so much more than just the notes. It’s perfectly balanced and honestly a perfect signature scent. It’s more summery but honestly yo could pull it off year round due to the warm notes snd saffron. This and Mallow are my néw favorite fragrances.

Why is everyone doing the saffron and Rose fruit combination? I'm so sick of this. Erba Pura and kirke and I dream of Paris and dolce melodia and don't forget mon Paris and countless other designer fragrances. Guidance! The whole point about fragrance collecting is finding something original. You guys can do better than this. I am very disappointed because I had high expectations for this fragrance. Some people were saying it is the best thing they have smelled in this summer etc. You have to have it etc. There is a severe lack of creativity when it comes to female targeted fragrances. This is not how every female wants to smell. We are very diverse. I do enjoy citrus especially orange, but I also enjoy aromatics and green fragrances as well. I am still relatively young, and my personal taste has always been this way. Whoever is in charge of rubber stamping the current fragrances on the market should not be in their position. This is an area where artists should be free to express themselves. And I truly believe a large number are not free anymore. I haven't been this disappointed since Aaron Rodgers tore his Achilles.

When I read the words intoxicating and addictive, I instantly knew what people were talking about after purchasing this. I do get a slightly almond vibe on the initial spray but wears off completely after about 30 mins. The citrus blast is intense on first spray but very beautiful. I would say the citrus is more like a mandarin or passion fruit rather than like a full on orange. It is a very creamy and airy scent. The florals do not come out until after an hour or so but they are so well blended and creamy themselves in makes this perfume just intoxicating. You know the vanilla and sandalwood etc are there, but the creamy citrus and florals are centre stage. The projection enormous, the longevity is excellent, and this leans more feminine to my nose. You know this is going to be a compliment getter for sure. My nose has not experienced anything like this particular scent before. Definitely full bottle worthy in my opinion. Would be great for all times of the day and night, and through spring to early autumn. In love with this one.

This had to be my first review on a fragrance. Absolutely no other words than GORGEOUS, but don’t get me wrong. If you’re a woman, blind buy worthy for sure. But if you’re those kinds of man who only likes dark/boozy/woody fragrances, this is not for you. But if you don’t care about the feminine-leaning character of this fragrance ( I do get that same feel about Xerjoff’s Erba Pura and Gold, whose, for me, are also feminine-leaning, but wore by many men, and in my opinion Dolce Melodia is much more enjoyable and seductive, also not as nauseating, synthetic, and annoyingly [but still] strong) you will for sure love this. A sweet fruit-basket with a touch of citrus notes which gives this scent a very tropical and hot weather appeal. Easily reaches 8h+ and then it settles closer to the body with a comfy musk and sandalwood, wrapped with a sweet and subtle vanilla, for 12h-15h. I would recommend this as a Day/Afternoon fragrance for warm/hot days. Dolce Melodia is a true masterpiece. Is an art in a form of a perfume.

This is fantastically fruity! Opening with stunning orange, a fair amount of pear, and a hint of more exotic fruits and a degree of spice. Sweet like fruity or pineapple and apple gummy bears. Perfect for summer days, and at the beach. The fruit matures pleasantly, and the vanilla becomes evident and beautifully balanced with white floral, probably jasmine that provides a slightly cloying note for me that is undercut brilliantly, and thatbsaves the scent for me, by an Aventus Creed-like Blackcurrant note. But my partner, she adores it on her and on myself. The dry down presents more of a dry, less sweet, sandalwood finish which, after all the feminine notes, and feminine leaning scent, earns itself a little more of a unisex feel. For ladies- excellent day and year round fragrance. For men- fresh spring and summer days that aren't too cloyingly warm. Just enough sillage for a close group, and lasts my 10 hour shift with delightful delicate reminders that it's still there. Awesome.

This has the Erba Pura DNA for sure (I cannot stand Erba Pura). Very sweet synthetic musk vibe, but this is surprisingly not annoying to me (not loud). Also, maybe due to the lack of passion fruit, it doesn't smell like rotting fruits lol. Pineapple is not listed in the notes but I smell something like a pineapple hard candy. I get NO florals. Also, surprisingly not very projecting nor long lasting like its cousin Erba Pura. This type of DNA will never be my fav but if I had to choose one to own it would be this one. I dig this. Glad to own a bottle, it's a keeper! However I have to admit that this one is nowhere near worth retail. If you can find for 50% off, go for it! Provenzano never fails to take a popular DNA and make it really really good! P/s: Love the color of the bottle but overall the shape is ugly. Like what even is it? Update: I am officially obsessed! This is so addicting! Also after a month of sitting, i finally smell the white florals (mainly jasmine).

Fragrance Journal Entry #196 This is the most fruity fragrance one can possibly imagine. It's super fruity but not in a super realistic way...the best way i could describe it is juicy fruit flavored gummy bears. Now that might not sound like the most inticing fragrance out there but i can assure you this stuff does something to the brain that triggers an instant love for the scent. About 2-3 hours into the drydown the scent develops a bit of a scratchy fruit gone sour kind of smell likely due to the saffron, it doesn't stick around super long but its noticeable nose to skin. After that the vanilla starts to creep in giving a sort of lactonic melon skin scent. This fragrance is mostly pleasant (especially the opening) i just wish it projected a tad better but it lasts long enough. Unisex leaning slightly feminine. Best from the house of Sospiro imo. Rating: 9.7/10 Blind Buy Safe? NO

Classical music has the power to calm the soul. Its nuanced compositions and harmonies can transport us to a state of well-being and serenity. I admit that I often listen to it to get into a state of total relaxation, in particular a symphony that makes me feel really good is Debussy's ‘Clair de Lune’. Dolce Melodia is a fragrance that, with the presence of fruit, makes us feel good. In this fragrance, one perceives not only the juiciness of the pear, but also the almost narcotic aroma of white flowers, rich, sweet and perfectly balanced with light suede and woody nuances. The evolution is very complex, and in the drydown a really pleasant creaminess comes out. Sensual and penetrating, I really liked it. ‘Fleurs et Fruits painted by Fantin-Latour.

Just got a decant, this smells like Erba Pura with a hint of Side Effect (I'm talking about the saffron), I'd say it's unisex others might say slightly feminine....ehh Potato Potahto *shrug. That being said it smells good, I thought it didn't perform great until my body started to heat up. It last about 9-10 hours on me with 3 hours of decent projection, depending on how hot you are you catch whiffs of this throughout your entire wearing. The only thing i can see throwing people off about this is the strength of that saffron in the opening (it's a little armpit-ish) but that goes away after 10 minutes & smells amazing the rest of the way. I suggest you try this first before committing to a full bottle.

A staple in my collection, just wrapped up my first bottle. Luckily it can be found on discounter sites now which make keeping this in stock less painful on the wallet. It's strong, and maybe leaning feminine but its a gorgeous composition of the right amount of floral, sweet, powdery, woody and airy and shines in the cooler spring/summer days. Too overwhelming for 85 degrees and higher or extreme humidity. The wafts of this in the air are insanely gorgeous on man or woman. I have three friends that now own this after always hounding me down to what I was wearing when I had this on. In one word I would mainly call this a HAPPY or UPLIFTING scent for those days you need a smile back on your face.

So I have both the white bottle and the yellow bottle. They are different. The white bottle is lighter, more feminine, fruity, juicy floral. The yellow bottle has similar profile but it’s much more unisex, thicker denser more syrupy and has a fizziness to it, like a soda with the pop of the carbonation, whereas the white one doesn’t have that at all. I like both but I prefer the white bottle for my girlfriend, it’s sexier to me for a woman. I know when people hear denser richer thicker they automatically associate that with better quality or stronger and longer lasting, not at all though, it’s just how it sounds. Go for whichever is easiest for you to try.

Joyful, gauzy layered bubbly lemonade based concoction of clean fresh fruits and abstract white florals. A fragrance that has elements of white space so you can see it all. Very happy, fresh and youthful, an exuberance that is playful. Wonderful in the heat and winds of a subtropical climate. I perceive the fruits as a creamy pear and apple (on a bed of lemonade). The white florals feel more blossom-like with a honeyed edge. Never cloying just very pleasant and leaves a gorgeous scent trail even if you fail to perceive it yourself. A light soapy touch in the dry down with an element of dry white woods. Really beautiful.

As a man with a hairy chest,.bald head and sensitive knee caps, I LOVE this fragrance. I would love to smell this on a woman in a nice sundress after she just consumed two chili cheese dogs, or in a pants suit putting away her 5th lemon drop, eyeing that bottle of prosecco on the corner of the bar. But since I am a quite lonely (but also quite lovely) I wear this when I wan't to feel pretty, walking thru NoHo, licking a croissant and imagining myself being painted like one of.those French girls, chest hair and all (I have more on common with French women than I thought). Makes my personal top 10, ever.

there's not much i can add to this that hasn't been said already but it is really is one of the best fruity fragrances ever made. it reminds me of a citrus fruit gum in the opening and as it starts to dry down, it becomes a saffron bomb. deep, deep in the dry down, i get something quite ambroxany that i don't necessarily love, but that's after 12+ hours of being on skin. but i guess that speaks to its incredible longevity and projection. i still can't decide if i just really love it or if it's one of my all time fav's but regardless, the stuff is great and i'm hoping to buy a full bottle soon.

Oh this is gorgeous! It has been a while since I sampled something new and instantly felt like I wanted more. The opening is fresh, floral and fruity to me. I can't really smell the saffron but I do typically enjoy saffron in the top notes and maybe that's making me enjoy this too. The dry down to me is about 80% similar to Impadia which I really like but find too heavy and cloying to wear in the tropics where I live. This is a perfect balance of fruity floral with a warm and deep dry down that's highly enjoyable. The longevity is really good too. Full bottle on the way!

Absolutely beautiful fragrance! I love fruity sweet fragrances that don't go too far into the floral range. This one keeps the floral touch just soft enough in the background that it's not too much. What I get from her is a cross between the best parts of Narco Oasis and Hundred Silent Ways. If you love those two like I do - chances are good you will love this one too. In the blend I actually smell passionfruit which isn't listed but that's the fruit I smell. Not as tangy as Narco Oasis passionfruit but just as beautiful.

Wow. I wasn't expecting to like this as much as I do. Juicy fruit gum immediately comes to mind. It's easy to see the kool aid and candy comparisons also. The florals and vanilla come forward after a few minutes and from there do a great job in keeping it from being "too fruity" which allowed them to strike a pleasant soft airy balance here. In the end, it's probably going to be just a tab bit too feminine leaning for me personally, but I do love this scent! Ladies should check this out for sure.

I am upset I did not buy this sooner. I have never come across a citrus that projects like this. I know a lot of people say this is more feminine leaning, and I do not see it. You will get compliments every single time you wear this. Worth every penny IMO. You will get 8-10 hours out of this with minimal sprays. Go easy on the trigger if you plan on being indoors for a long period of time. I also do not see the comparison to Loumari Porthole. Porthole is more salty and aquatic.

Très sincèrement, je suis un homme et il s'agit de mon parfum favoris parmi une multitude de parfum que j'ai actuellement et que j'ai possédé jadis. Il est magnifiquement bon, avec des notes florales, poudrées et légèrement boisées avec un côté liqueur sucré/amande (pour ma part). Il sonne à mon nez tel une douce mélodie qui effleure mes oreilles. C'est un chef d'œuvre (complètement UNISEXE selon moi) et j'ai hâte de tester TOUTE la gamme de chez Sospiro, si Dieu le veut 🙏💚

ugh. UUUUGH. this is sooooooooo good. For years I have worn Ariana Grande Ari and finished several bottles, i looooved the type of sweetness it had, it was cheap and had amazing lasting power. This is that, 2.0, more refined. LOVE IT. I cannot wait for warm weather to come again so I can smell like this. I feel like a fairy when wearing it, like flowers are blooming around me as I walk past them. I feel joyful and likeable and loveable and so cute when wearing it. ❤️

Regarding the difference between the white and yellow bottles, I received the following information from Sospiro: “We would like to update you that Dolce Melodia, initially released in a white bottle as part of the Sinfonia Collection in 2020, was a limited edition and is currently not available for purchase on our website and in stores. Dolce Melodia has made a return to the Classica Collection, now presented in a yellow velvet bottle.” Hope that this helps.

This is a compliment getter! The scent trail it leaves is a creamy, beautiful not too sweet fruits. I almost Decluttered this because I didn’t understand it, then one day it seemed like the only one to wear to work and it got me noticed and 10 hours later I was still smelling it. Worth every penny and shines in warmer weather but can be all year around. Edit: I went from not understanding it to ordering a back up bottle for a good price. Won’t be without it!

I love this so much. It’s everything I wanted from Choeur des Anges. This is a beautifully sweet and sour orange that you can really sink your teeth into. The saffron gives it some bite and the gardenia brings refinement and a bit of daintiness and whimsy. Dolce Melodia is neither too juvenile nor too mature (for my tastes)... it is perfectly balanced IMO. Definitely a crowd pleaser, best suited for spring through fall. I’m obsessed.

This could be the most juicy, delicious and mouth watering fragrance I have in my humble collection. I get a fresh, sweet, creamy mixture of mandarin orange, black currant and pear on a smooth sandalwood base. I don't get any of the florals. The musk in this is very much dialed down and it smells nothing like Erba Gold (which I also love) in my opinion. Perfect for spring and summer. More suited for the ladies.

Fruity, sweet, tropical! So mundane, or so I thought. This fragrance gets it right! It’s a fruity fragrance at it’s core with light florals. It does not get sickeningly sweet. It manages to be airy with an amazing sillage! That saffron though! So elegant. Blows Erba pura/ gold out of the water. I actually dislike those! My search for a balanced, sophisticated, fruity fragrance is over!

I absolutely LOVE this perfume! Every time I spray it, it just makes me happy. It reminds me of bright, happy, warm days. I also get a lot of compliments with this perfume. It lasts 8+ hours for me. This is one in my collection that I would absolutely replace when I run out. To my nose, I definitely get a prominent fruit scent and less of the florals. It’s absolute perfection to me!

Favorite from Sospiro so far besides Vibrato. This is feminine, sweet, fruity, floral, absolutely addicting. I love this perfume. I cant really compare it to any other fragrance either. Its pretty unique. A must try for woman. Smells nothing like Erba Pura or Kirke, I strongly dislike both and absolutely love Dolce Melodia. Dolce Melodia doesnt have that obnoxious musk.

A 10/10 MASTERPIECE!! This is the best fruity fragrance in my entire collection and It is in a category of it's own. The category should be called "addictive scents" because that's what this is. I find myself randomly grabbing my bottle and spraying my wrist just so i can smell it over and over again. It is a creamy fruity blend that is just done so well. A must try.

Got a travel size of this to wear for a trip coming up since it’s a tropical scent. First smell I immediately thought of sour patch kids candy. Very very fruity and sweet, on my skin though I get the same but more of the vanilla comes out. It’s nice really really nice, need to test this when I’m in the islands to see if it’s worth a full bottle for the summer

Second review of this and it’s grown on me a bit. Smells to me like really sweet passion fruit/mango juice. Definitely like this more than Erba Gold. Still wondering if it’s worth a full bottle or not since I already have a lot of other tropical fragrances. Albeit none of them smell like this, but I’d use them all in the same situations.

I just sampled Erba Gold by Xerjoff and loved it. But I think I love this even more. This is giving orange creamsicle for those of you in the U.S. or Solero vibes for my fellow Brits. With some creamy warm spice from saffron. The fragrance itself has an oily texture hinting at high concentration of perfume oil and great lasting power.

This is a fruity juicy saffron bomb. I love it. I’ve been hoarding my decant until my back-ordered full bottle arrived from scent split and it’s finally here! Right on time for the summer. This scent is perfect for day or night. I find this to be the best & most alluring citrus fragrance I’ve ever smelled and it lasts as well.

I have never been complimented so much on a perfume until today. This was my first time wearing Sospiro Dolce Melodia out in public and women were falling all over me, two actually wrote down the name. Truly my #1 favorite perfume ever! It's the most beautiful thing I have ever smelled, and I guess I'm not the only one.

The reviewers who hyped this told not one lie. It's spectacular. Juicy sweet citrus that is bright and happy. Has a gorgeous creamy feel without being weighed down, and a plush woody base that holds it all together. I can see wearing this year round, but for sure it's going to be my summer go-to. LOVE.

For me the pear note is the star in this fragrance. Fruity, out of shower fresh pear that transforms slowly into something a little bit more creamy with a bit of vanilla. Beautiful scent trail. Lovely as a man or woman although most people would percieve it as a little bit feminine leaning.

No doubt - I’m in love. Such a deliciously creamy yet fresh fun scent with SO much elegance. Underneath the melange of ripe fruits it is creamy and rich underneath with the smell of saffron and soft wood. So wonderful as the weather warms and will wear this joyously in the heat.

One of my first purchases and I fell in love with it. I lived in Florida for a few years and it was my favorite thing to wear in the summer heat and it works well in cool weather also. Unisex but leans feminine ish. Hands down the best orange I have smelt, almost gourmand.

Reminds me of a somewhat floral orange creamsicle, but in the best possible sense. I struggle with some Sospiro fragrances due to the sometimes screechy musks, but they are toned down in this and the fruitiness and creaminess rule. I absolutely love it.

This is truly a delicious fragrance! The citrus opening is bright and refreshing, followed by the most beautiful floral heart. The sweetness is perfectly balanced, never overwhelming. It lasts all day on my skin and gets compliments everywhere I go.

I just received this and i think it might be my best blind buy so far!No words to describe how much i love this, i can`t believe that i discovered the perfect balance of fresh yet sweet fragrance, just perfect for summer!Amazing!

Surprisingly powerful performance for an edp and the smell of this is world-class. As feminine as it is I don't think there's anything in it preventing it from being worn by a man. Smell: 10/10, Performance: 9/10, Overall 9.5/10

Objectively speaking, I love this scent. However, I sold it off because it just leans a little too feminine for me. Smells like a vanilla fruit punch with a lot of Gardenia—great performer and scent, just not for me.

Fruity rather than citrusy. It is a masterpiece. I thought it would smell too fruity at first, but guys... The saffron... 😍 No more words needed. Juicy, powerful, fruity, beautiful, uplifting summer and spring scent.

This smells incredible. At first its a very fruity orange soda type of smell that isnt synthetic while it dries down similar to how sacred bond by reinvented does. Longevity: 9/10 Overall: 9/10

Yummmm. It's such a delicious fragrance. It leans slightly feminine, but I can rock it. Must have in the collection. Great quality ingredients. I will repurchase it when I finish this bottle.

So clean and non synthetic smelling, perfect for a fruity fragrance. This is like a mix of orange and pear, more fruity in the opening and musky on the dry down. One of my new favorites.

Oh man, that juicy opening got my mouth watering for a good hour, LOL. Phenomenal composition and FB-worth, IMO! And perfectly unisex too...if you're okay with smelling citrus-rich.

To me, this smells just like Pas ce Soir Extrait, but without a certain smelly note I can’t describe. Overall, I get mostly pear and orange. Would buy over Pas Ce Soir Extrait.

This is my first time trying Sospiro and I love this scent! I dont smell roses at all. I get a beautiful citrusy sweet opening with a touch of jasmine. FB worthy.

Juicy fruit gum opening, then cream gardenia and Jasmine tone it down a bit. Definitely a high quality “happy” citrus floral scent. Divine year round!
