The One For Women is described as a 'timeless oriental and floral fragrance' which combines modern fruity notes with aromatic white flowers. The 5ml fragrance opens with sparkling notes of bergamot and mandarin, blended with notes of lychee and peach.
This develops into a delicate heart of Madonna lily, which accentuates the fragrances voluptuous intensity and enveloping femininity, before revealing a base of sweet vanilla, plum and amber notes. On the other hand, (4.5ml) is a a fruity floral scent which evokes the spirit of a Sicilian summer.
It said to 'represent the aroma of sparkling summer days culminating in evocative evenings'. The sensational perfumes combines lively Sicilian cedar with the freshness of the Granny Smith apple and floral allure of bluebell.
The green yet slightly wood base notes of bamboo is softened with jasmine and the bottom note of white rose. It also fuses citron wood with amber and musk creating a hearty base.

Praising The One, a satisfied shopper shopper wrote: "What a strong and intriguing smell. I love this fragrance, it’s gorgeous and I can’t get enough." A second penned: "Another fantastic fragrance from D&G. Very nice smell and last very long on my skin. Highly recommended."
Somebody else, however, didn't like The One as much, claiming that it 'doesn't live up to expectations'. Their three-star review reads: "The perfume is a nice scent, however I don’t believe the longevity of the scent justifies what the RRP Is for it.
"I noticed the scent had gone not long after I had put it on and other people also couldn’t smell it after the same time period. I don’t think this is a perfume I will be purchasing again as there are others which I think provide better longevity."
But another loved their latest fragrance purchase, adding: "This perfume is beautifully balanced. It had a depth to it that stays with you all day, and the fragrance smells timeless. I know that sounds silly, but it could easily be worn by a 20-something for a job interview or a 60-something to a special lunch. It smells decadent and luxurious."
