I love smelling nice, who doesn't, and as I result I tend to wear perfume the majority of the time. I'm one of these people who have a perfume for every occasion. And Dolce and Gabbana's "The One" has earned its place to sit on my perfume shelf.

Being given a perfume as a gift is always a risky situation if you haven't used it before but I am so glad I received this perfume as it is absolutely divine.

The box itself is gold, so you know you are getting a luxurious product and as you open the box it just gets even more so. The perfume comes in a square bottle with a big gold lid that looks like a block of pure gold. It definitely looks expensive.

Although this might seem like a lot of money for perfume it is definitely worth it. The description given by Dolce and Gabbana is: Dolce & Gabbana launch their brand new fragrance, The One. The fragrance features top notes of mandarin and peach that leads into a heart of jasmine and ends with a base of vanilla, amber and musk.

The One for Her is a warm, oriental floral with modern sensuality. It's a fragrance with a strong personality and a contrasting golden sweetness. Created for the ultimate diva, The One is at once tempting, modern and glamorous, embracing a touch of classicism.

You can see why it smells so good. After spraying myself with this perfume I instantly feel glamorous, maybe not as glamorous as Scarlett Johansson on the adverts but still sophisticated none the less.
I am a fan of vanilla in perfumes so this is why this perfume is a hit with me. You get the initial notes which ooze luxury and the musky vanilla will be with you all day.

It is worth splashing out a bit extra for this one as it will last such a long time. You only need a small amount each time you use it as the smell is quite powerful and will last all day long. What I also like about this perfume is that you do not need to wait for the smell to settle as you have to with other perfumes, you just spray and you instantly smell luxurious.

I personally prefer to wear this perfume at night as it is more of a glamorous scent rather than an everyday scent. But that is just my personal view as I wear more fruity perfumes during the day.

In order to get the best price for this perfume I recommend looking online. The cheapest I have seen for 30ml is £34.63 on fragrancenet.com and for 50ml is £38.59 and that was on the cheapsmells.com website. You can also get 75ml bottles which sell for between £47.99 and £63.00.

To have the ultimate "The One" experience you can also purchase the body lotion by Dolce and Gabbana. Prices for this start from around £19.00 for a 200ml tube.

This is a definite must if you want to smell gorgeous and want your perfume stand to look a million dollars!
