Dolce & Gabbana has introduced Velvet Incenso, a new woody oriental fragrance.
Vibrant incense essence is set alight by a spark of black pepper essence. With its citrus and pepper facets, elemi essence echoes these opening notes, its resinous burn introducing the darker heart of the fragrance.
The Orient and the Mediterranean worlds meet as incense resinoid, intense with balsamic hints, blends with cistus absolute, an ambery resin drawn from typical trees of Sicilian hillsides. Benzoin resinoid adds its cinnamon and vanilla sweetness. Smooth patchouli essence and powerful amber wood extend the magical trail of Velvet Incenso deep into the night.
Dolce & Gabbana Velvet Incenso is available in 50 ($310) or 150 ($495) ml Eau de Parfum.

Sans the vanilla, this sounds like my cup of tea. For the price, I’m quite confident I won’t give it a sniff, though.
I need to go back and look at the original prices for this series…either I’ve forgotten, or they used to be more reasonable!
I honestly think they were too! Not cheap but considerably less expensive. I am going on recollection alone, however, from my last trip to Barney’s.
