Airy, aquatic floral

I remember smelling this for the first time in 2014 when it first came out and being absolutely in love immediately from its bright softness. I wasn't really interested in perfume back then but still I remembered this one until today. Now six years later I stumbled over a miniature version of this and thought this was a great way to test this fragrance again. And what can I say …

This is just such a beautiful, soft, feminine scent! It just makes me feel so special and pretty. It has such a delicate brightness to it. It's airy, even a bit aquatic. Not sweet (and for me also not soapy) at all.
It starts a bit greener, then becomes more musky with time and you start to really get this beautiful cashmere touch.
It sits really close to the skin and doesn't leave a trail but I think the longevity is quite good. I usually reapply after about 6-7 hours.
When I think of perfect occasions to wear this to, I think of a lunch date in spring and also of university/office. I think it's a beautiful daily scent for warmer months :)

Also I think the bottle and advertisement are perfect for this fragrance.
What you see really is what you get!

A "love" from me - and I can't wait to purchase a bigger bottle of it :)

Delicate fresh flowers

Dolce EdP by Dolce and Gabbana is one of the most delicate fragrances in my collection, which is usually made up of, say, more pompous fragrances.
But from time to time when I have a stressful phase, or if I don't feel physically fit, I need to get away from all too intense scents and then Dolce comes into play.
I also bought this used fragrance as a three-quarter-filled 50 ml bottle. New it would have been too expensive for me, too expensive for such a fresh scent which as you know does not last long.

I have to agree with the previous speaker that Dolce EdP might please people who like the water lily deodorant from CD. I'm one of them. Fragrance twinning would be too much said, but he's already pretty much in that direction.

It is not so easy for me to describe this fragrance. It is delicate, fresh, discreetly floral without sweetness with a slightly bitter note. Beautiful leciht and fresh without smelling like cheap shower gel.
I know the smell of Amaryllis, my mother had one in the living room for a long time in my childhood. I can't remember it one hundred percent, but I still think I can hear it here in this fragrance.
Springtime daffodils also play their part here. I can't really say how water lilies smell, but they often play a role in fresh, mostly aqueous-aquatic scents.
Over the whole there is still a slight bitterness, which probably comes from the bitter orange leaf.
So all in all a fresh flowery scent that peers a little into the aquatic corner.
Sometimes I just need this to clear my head.
It is well made in and of itself, never seems cheap, but the durability is not all too great. Since I haven't bought a new fragrance at full price, this does me less and I just spray after.
With such a fresh fragrance I don't have too much expectations of the shelf life - my heavy fragrances make up for that.
I think I remember that it lasts even longer in winter than in summer.
The bottle with the delicate artistic blossom on the cap is very pretty-not too kitschy and may sometimes into the bottle collection. I'm even thinking about re-buying the fragrance.

green-tender shyness

Who likes the water lily of a certain deodorant series is right here. I like them and am very happy about this addition.
Flacon
It's bulky, heavy. A flower like on a marzipan cake and you don't know if you can eat it. Doesn't go too well with the scent, except the color.
Shelf life
Unfortunately not intoxicating for me either. But there's enough in the bottle to spray on, and I avoid that during the day.
Fragrance
Starts freshly aquatic, very slightly citric. Creamy and finely floral. Didn't know what papaya smells like and feared a soda surge. On the contrary, very fine, sweet and due to the orange juicy fruity lingers.
The narcissus is added discreetly and leaves the field to the water lily, which is very dominant but also more fruity. Like I said, I like it a lot. One could suspect cucumber/melon, it's only quite easy.
A fine floral freshness with a pleasant soft creaminess remains throughout, which conveys a clean, cool feeling with restraint and then fades away quite quickly. For me a favourite for spring/summer.

Sticks around a little longer than you'd expect

Sweet and sophisticated fresh floral - without being 'old' or dated. Watery, airy qualities - without losing potency. And that's where its strength lies. It has pretty decent lasting power for being such a light and aquatic scent. There's nothing necessarily unique about this - I'm not sure I could pick it out in a lineup of similar fragrances, but it is nice.
