CreamyWhat does The Only One (Eau de Parfum) smell like?
It opens with freesia, bergamot and pear, a lightly fruity freshness. In the heart, Iris tingitana, coffee and violet push the floral side toward a powdery, gourmand direction. Amberwood, patchouli and heliotrope finish it with a creamy, oriental warmth.
Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick fall and winter, with evening, leisure and night out leading the occasions. Most see it as feminine. Dolce & Gabbana The Only One 2 and Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.
