Dolce and Gabbana The One Royal Night Review [2024]

Dolce and Gabbana The One Royal Night review. This perfume was announced as a mysterious, sophisticated and really masculine perfume.

It is an exclusive fragrance that came out in the fall 2015 and it represents an oriental version of the original scent called The One for Men all the way from 2008. It is available exclusively in specific stores all over the world.

Dolce and Gabbana The One Royal Night is a great addition to D & G’s collection and it offers a fragrant journey right to the Middle East. The oriental and woody composition starts with notes of cardamom – it is actually two kinds of cardamom oil as well as basil. There is also wild pear wood, plus dry wood alongside a leathery note, plus spicy nutmeg which form the heart.

It is followed by an oriental base of cedar, amber, sandalwood and even labdanum. The bottle of the scent is decorated well with dark hues plus golden details like a rectangular cover, its Arabic name, as well as Dolce & Gabbana’s logo for The One. It contains Cardamon, some light scented wood and citrus that lightens up the brew and something that is slightly sour which adds to the character of the blend, which is the basil.

You will have a touch of nutmeg, plus a light touch of a spicy note. This perfume has a kind of ‘hot’ spiciness to it when compared to the Eau De Parfum. It’s really good, but it is not groundbreaking. With that said, this perfume is 100% wearable and really enjoyable. It can feel like one of those formulas that were developed out of many when they were creating the original ‘The One’.

The original was successful and had a massive fan base which is why the band released some of the formulas as ‘Exclusives’. It is a little adventurous enough for people to care about and ‘The One – Eau De Parfum’ is actually still king of their line series.

You should get it whenever there’s a discount so you can enjoy it at a lower cost. It really does not matter if you think your collection can no longer accommodate new scents, if you prefer more spiciness for your scents, you should try this perfume as well.

The appeal and longevity of Dolce and Gabbana The One Royal Night review

 Even if you do not possess the original “The One”, you will definitely fall in love with this scent. It can be a blind-buy as you will really enjoy this one. The perfume is not linear and it dries down into a woody and masculine scent. In the last two hours before it fades, you will be able to detect the wood and the basil.

Dolce and Gabbana The One Royal Night possesses a sweetness that actually leans towards giving off patchouli vibes even though that note isn’t included.  If you enjoy different fragrances, perhaps from the house of Swiss Arabian and even Rasasi, you may enjoy this because it gives of middle-eastern vibes. You will enjoy this fragrance as a result of the included amber and sandalwood.

It is not as sweet as the original “The One” which you will notice if you’ve bought it in Eau De Parfum. The opening can be a little bit harsh then it leads right to the beauty inside. After some hours, it becomes a skin scent. The longevity of the perfume is about six hours even on your clothes. It is a better iteration of the original.

It can start off a little harsh when compared to the one, probably because it is spicier without the usual grapefruit top note. After some minutes, it then settles right into smooth amber plus woods with cardamom as well as other spicy notes. You will get the woods with the amber and hints of spicy cardamom.

You will love how Dolce and Gabbana The One Royal Night performs on your skin. This is a regal and really classy version and it is not disappointing at all. If you love the original, you will love this. After a few hours, you will recognize the faint smell of the original DNA. You will be happy to have the Eau De Parfum and glad you purchased a decant of this. It is spicy, middle eastern and herbal. The beginning can be kind of fizzy, or bubbly.

The scent of Dolce and Gabbana The One Royal Night perfume

Dolce and Gabbana The One Royal Night scent can be described as heading to a vending machine, ordering a D&G the one and your can comes out. Immediately you pop the top of the can before you get to the drink, you find that your nose is greeted with fizz as though the can was shaken up on the way down.

When all this settles, you get the one. It is slightly darker on its gradient scale and there is some sandalwood which makes it a great scent. The performance is good and it lasts well on the skin. This edition is not really an improvement of the original Eau De Parfum. It is quite different. It has the same vibe but lacks the sweetness that and you will love the oud. You can choose which one you like depending on your tastes.

When compared to the original, it is deep and has a slight touch of oud. It contains more spices and more gourmandy. It also has a better projection, sillage and even lasts longer. You will get compliments from men and women as well who will want to know what you are wearing so they can purchase it.

Dolce and Gabbana The One Royal Night perfume have great quality and depth. It is not synthetic and neither is it completely anonymous. You will love the Cardamom and nutmeg which can be quite dominant in the perfume. It is sweet but not in a cloying or annoying way. It stands out because it is different from others out there.

Dolce and Gabanna really put in work into this one. It has a A woody cardamom that is identical to Dunhill Icon Elite especially in terms of the scent since they both possess strong notes of cardamom plus sandalwood.

Why you should wear the Dolce and Gabbana The One Royal Night perfume

Dolce and Gabbana The One Royal Night is great as an office scent especially considering the performance. It also develops pretty nicely. No matter how long you’ve owned it, it has the potential to become one of your favorites in this line since the performance is definitely better. You will get whiffs of the perfume all day long and the scent is an extra woody and  spicy version of the original.

The included accentuated spice plus woods lays right on top of their patented “The One” DNA. Once the fragrance dries down, you will find that “the one” smell shines through. It’s a good perfume because it retains the scent profile from the original while including a bolder, stronger and even extra spicy/woody touch.

The spiciness plus the dark woods are so nice that it is hard to get tired of it. The scent is not too heavy and it’s a good one. When you get whiffs of it throughout your day, you will love how it smells and uplifts your mood. You will be able to smell it even when it dries down on your skin. It hovers around for a long while before becoming a skin scent that some who comes close to you can still detect.

You will find that it is a really awesome perfume. It is a good thing that the packaging is completely authentic, and you will love the matching box and the bottle snapped up the brand. It is a glorious perfume and when you try it, you will understand why so many people talk about it. If you have not tried anything from the Dolce and Gabanna brand, you can try this perfume and see how it works on you.

You will like how much resemblance it has to its flankers even though there are differences. Even though they did not declare grapefruit  as one of the notes, the wood from the pear tree is actually a note which tries to evoke that fruit plus the wood as well. You will notice a kind of sweetness during the development that may not correspond just to the amber .

The note of pear wood gives it an “African” leather aroma. The Woods and spices grant a serious counterpoint right in the background. The sweetness is halfway through the warm and fresh parts. It has  a quality which is very pleasant and it makes this perfume even better. It is a paragon of quality and you will love the performance.
