Dolce & Gabbana’s new flanker fragrance to Dolce is Dolce Floral Drops. This beautiful eau de toilette contains the same fragrance notes as Dolce, yet offers a softer, dewier fragrance experience than it’s predecessor. Love it!

Dolce Floral Drops is an eau de toilette, versus the original Dolce which offered an eau de parfum concentration. The EDT mixture of Dolce Floral Drops creates a softer, more floral fragrance experience than the EDP mixture from Dolce which offered more of a green floral experience.

The fragrance notes for Dolce & Gabbana Dolce Floral Drops EDT are:

Top notes: neroli leaf, papaya flower.
Middle notes: white amaryllis, white daffodil, white water lily.
Base notes: cashmeran, musk, sandalwood.

Dolce & Gabbana Dolce Floral Drops EDT starts off with a light green scent laced in florals. After about twenty minutes, the green scent settles down and a beautiful floral bouquet takes over. At the end of the day, the floral scent is laced with smooth musk and sandalwood.

The light floral fragrance experience of Dolce & Gabbana Dolce Floral Drops EDT lends itself well to daily wear. This fragrance is ideal for moderate and warm weather; making it a great scent to wear in the spring, summer, and fall seasons.

Since Dolce & Gabbana Dolce Floral Drops EDT is a lighter scent, it can easily be worn in tight quarters to places such as the office or theater. It is also easy to wear for casual or semi-formal occasions. Love that!

Dolce & Gabbana’s Dolce Floral Drops EDT is a beautiful scent which sets itself apart from it’s Mother fragrance Dolce. Although both fragrances offer a different fragrance experience, they will likely appeal to the same nose. I’m in love!

LaVanila Vanilla Grapefruit EDP review

One of my favorite fragrance notes is vanilla. So, when I first heard of LaVanila fragrances, I immediately purchased and reviewed their beautiful Vanilla Coconut fragrance for summer. After falling in love with Vanilla Coconut, I was hooked on the entire collection and had to try LaVanila Vanilla Grapefruit!

Vanilla Grapefruit is my second fragrance from the LaVanila collection. It has a beautiful fruity gourmand scent which is both refreshingly crisp, and warm. Love that!

LaVanila Vanilla Grapefruit eau de parfum offers a fruity gourmand combination of fragrance notes including Pink Grapefruit, Lime, Bergamot, Orange, Cedarwood, and Madagascar Vanilla.

This beautiful fragrance offers a warm base of Madagascar Vanilla which offers complex fruit layers on an unique blend of pure essential oils. LaVanila is one of the world’s first healthy fragrances; infusing natural technology from organic sugar cane alcohol; and skin-saving botanicals and antioxidants for a modern twist on the classic art of perfumery. Love!

I love the idea of natural perfume. Not only is the scent pure, real, and not from a lab, it does not leave potentially harmful chemicals on your skin which could be absorbed into your system.

LaVanila Vanilla Grapefruit edp is long lasting. The fragrance started off with a fruity zing laced in vanilla. As the day wore on, the vanilla lay softly in the background as different fruit notes cycled through detection. At the end of the day, there was a slight fruit scent laced in a woody vanilla base. Perfect fragrance experience for any weather; warm or cold. Love that!

LaVanila Vanilla Grapefruit edp rates five out of five stars!

LaVanila has a wide range of fragrance products which carry it’s fragrances; complimenting the eau de parfum collection. The collection includes deodorant, roller balls, and body butter.

LaVanilla’s Vanilla Grapefruit edp can be found online here. To read my review of LaVanilla’s Vanilla Coconut eau de parfum, please click here.
