In my opinion, the fragrance is more suitable for young dynamics (or those who think they are :-) ), is not suitable for hot summer days due to its subliminal sweetness, easy to wear in autumn and spring, blessed with a good portion of durability. The Sillage is quite strong in the beginning, but then it diminishes just as much, in my opinion more is possible. Flacon: Nicely made, especially the "lid" is something different, something new. Not deserving of all the hate it gets at all, really good citrusy fresh fragrance at the price at discounters. Comes across quite naturally to the nose, nothing really poking out as synthetic. If it's a simple and not very unique scent, well it still definitely got a reaction from me. I'm not the most discerning fragrance aficionado here, but I really liked the way this smelled, at least on my friend. (Okay, I like Old Spice too and I LOVE Light Blue, so this was probably going to be a winner for me unless it was just awful.) I can't really speak to sillage or longevity as I wasn't the one wearing it, but I only caught up with him a couple hours into my shift, so longevity is at least moderate. Some PBS medications are restricted and require prior approval from Medicare before a doctor is able to prescribe them on the PBS. This prior approval to prescribe grants the doctor the Authority to prescribe the desired medicine and have it funded under the PBS.

I wanted to hate this because I don't like spicy or green fragrances, but that opening is seriously good. But the dry down...well not so much. On paper test strip, this smells horrible...but on skin it's quite nice Where would you wear it? It’s quite a powerful, sophisticated scent so would likely wear it out to dinner/drinks of an eveningThis is a nice fragrance though, it flew under my radar and I kinda just wrote it off like it was going to be really bad and it didn't get much love in the fragrance community but it deserves more love than it gets especially since for a fresh fragrance it's unique and has character it's not so generic. I think that this is a perfect fragrance for an evening, and would work best in Autumn or Winter, but could work in the other seasons on a night too. Since the smell is so subtle, it will not offend, but will leave a good impression. Longevity – K is an eau de toilette and lasts a good amount of time. I got around 6 hours before I noticed the scent disappearing. This is a perfect office scent that would work extremely well right into the after hours of the work day for eat & casual drinks with work colleagues & friends. Longevity for me is very, very good at nearly 12 hours (8-12 sprays for me) though projection and sillage is not this fragrances strong point. It will radiate off of the skin for about 90 minutes but, it stays close giving a nice scent bubble at almost an arm's length, which is fine by me. It's classy, smooth and refined. I find it easier to wear than Dior Sauvage as K edp is nowhere near as ambroxan heavy in my experience. Describe K by Dolce & Gabbana in more detail: K is a rebellious but intriguing masculine fragrance that has a bold signature. It makes a statement.

It's very much its own thing, and I'm thankful for that. Its definitely in the same vein as Bleu de Chanel, Sauvage, and Dylan Blue, but it's far smoother and cleaner than any of those. The bottle itself is quite a piece of work – a cool blue bottle but admitted, at first glance the crown cap does comes across as an over the top kind of “see me, hear me” statement in the vein of PRs 1 Million gold bar, but I find it also to be kind of tongue-in-cheek and quite fun to release a bottle like that in 2019. I don't believe it's a monster in projection, as it seems to develop into a skin scent after about 4-6 hours. But then again, my nose could just be going anosmic at times. Either way, that's fine, as I like my fragrances to be subtle and not screaming. But at the end of the day, the content is what counts, so let's get down to business. Since it's an eau de parfum and not cologne, two sprayers should be enough for now. From my testing, the projection and longevity of K is quite average. It projects out from my skin for the first 1-2 hours, then lasts on skin for 2-3 hours longer as an intimate skin scent. You’re getting what you pay for with D&G K, guys – it’s very affordable and that’s reflected in the performance. Is K versatile?

Prescriptions must be written on an Authority Prescription Form, and the approval number must be noted on the prescription. Pharmacists cannot dispense the item as a pharmaceutical benefit unless it has been approved by Medicare Australia (indicated by the presence of the approval number). I get some faint body odour nuances coming through for half an hour, maybe because of the fig+pimento combo; despite this, it's not a repulsive fragrance and I can survive is someone nearby is wearing it, despite not liking it all. I personally enjoy the note of juniper berries so i really enjoy this one. THe name king doesnt really fit, although I personally like the caps. It is a nod again to those crown air fresheners that sat in many a car in the 90s. This really is meant for high heat and warm weather, as it does not last long. Women love this as well.

K By D&G will get you compliments. It’s a nice, attractive and welcoming fragrance which works it’s magic best on an evening. I can imagine wearing this on a night out with friends, or with your lady. The scent itself is built on an opening of citrus and blood orange mixed with juniper berries. After this, the pimento enters the scene and makes out a pleasant heart combined with lavender, clary sage and geranium. Finally, the notes settle on a base of woods, patchouli, vetiver and a hefty dose of Iso E Super. Nothing unpleasant here and the overall feel is as “sporty” and office friendly as it is refreshing – a woody aromatic that I would imagine most adult western males would find pleasant to wear. While neither projection nor longevity are overly impressive, I think that Natalie Lorson has done a pretty decent job with K. K is inspired by a man who is the king of his everyday life. Because of this, I expected the fragrance to be powerful yet wearable, and unsurprisingly, it is. Both the Eau de Toilette and Eau de Parfum say ‘look at me’ in a humble way. And even though I was a fan of the original EDT, the new EDP version just takes it to a whole new level. It's deeper, richer, and even more captivating. I've already recommended it to several friends and I know they love it just as much as I do. I wonder what the K stands for King? Maybe even emperor? The "jeweled crown" as a clasp makes a good impression at least visually and is a pleasant change from the clasp monotony in the industry.While I enjoy the general vibe of the current interpretation of "blue" fragrances, and I like the modernity of them, I usually find them to be too heavy, sometimes cloying, and too spicy. This isn't the case with K by Dolce & Gabbana. Don't feel like going too deep into detail though, this is made redundant by Ambra Calabria as I'd class them both as zesty citruses but Ambra has far more depth with the amber and everything else it has going for it. Not that they should be compared at all, for obvious reasons, but the zesty green-ness of the bergamot and other top notes reminded me most directly of my bottle of Ambra Calabria. Similar kind of experience you get with Nio as well, minus the neroli. So here you go, it’s a stand-out because of its complexity (and I guess it opens itself to hate because there a lot to choose from if you’re not a fan of any one note it is offering). Sweet blue/green citrus, over masculine florals and subtle heat, all atop a base of clean woods. The note breakdown looks illogical, but the end product is just fantastic. My only minor quibbles with it are (1) that the drydown on clothes smells a little soapy - but it. smells great on the skin, so that's fine - and (2) that it does cause one to go slightly anosmic to it - but that seems to be all the rage in perfumery these days, and if I put nose-to-skin, I can still smell it just fine - so it's barely an inconvenience.

What do you think K Eau de Parfum smells similar to? I’d say if you like Mont Blanc Explorer or DIOR Sauvage this would be a good fit. I’m a fan of Sauvage and think this is a fresher take for an iconic smell. You can’t help but be drawn to it. My first thought, as mentioned few times, was a bubble-gummy juicy opening over the modern aromatic fougere accord (reference point is Fierce or Legend for me so we are talking about the Dihydromyrcenol with its bergamot-lavender note, tonka-oakmoss for the classic barbershop note). I am not sure if the gummy juicy note coming from some pineapple ingredient, but I would assume so, something like Allyl Amyl Glycolate and/or Dynascone that we famously know from Aventus. There's a nice touch of sandalwood, which I stopped smelling shortly after as sandalwood ingredients tend to be hard to smell. I didn't think of any soapy vibe, but just a nice twist on the fougere and maybe de-maturized by the fruity accord. Juniper berries, a note i feel you either love or hate. There is a LOT of hate for this fragrance, and it seems centered around the note of juniper. No, I do not think this smells like anything on the designer market currently. There is no ambroxan as noted below, it is not bubble gum sweet, no overdose of tonka bean. What do you think K by Dolce&Gabbana smells similar to? Hugo Boss BOSS Bottled Intense Eau de Parfum. Give it about ten minutes on your skin, and the narrative changes entirely. The subtle spiciness emerges and mingles with the original blue impression, creating an intriguing and multi-faceted scent profile. The fig and citrus notes break through, injecting a lively freshness reminiscent of Acqua di Gio Profundo, but with a dash of green energy.

Dolce&Gabbana offers a unique olfactory adventure with the intense version of its K by Dolce&Gabbana Eau de Toilette. Introducing the new K by Dolce&Gabbana Eau de Parfum. Captivating, magnetic and sensual, the Eau de Parfum unveils the hidden soul of a modern king. Balancing strength with a heart that is always kind, the K by Dolce&Gabbana man proves that he was born to not just wear his crown, but own it too. Firstly it is a perfectly serviceable scent and does not smell bad. It is the epitome of a shower gel scent. I tested both the EDT and EDP and, to my nose, they both smell almost exactly the same other than the EDP may be slightly richer and woodier (just as a true EDP should be), but the differences are negligible. As soon as I tested this it smelt like any other sporty shower gel. Now, I do believe there is a place in any fragrance wardrobe for a scent like this. If one day you don't particularly fancy wearing a fragrance and just want to smell like you're fresh out of the shower, this will do. This will also work perfectly as a gym scent or for any occasion you just don't want to offend anyone. I work shifts and this would work perfectly when I start a morning shift at 6am and really don't want to offend any colleagues with a loud ambroxan or sweet gourmand fragrance at such early hours. It is perfectly versatile. D&G K EDT opens with a soft projection of citrus, spicy and woody accords. The opening is fresh, it feels common, diluted, slightly sweet, sporty, and pleasant. The citruses are a significant part of the opening notes, their combination comes across as just citruses, slightly sweet, not too sour, but without accent to any of the specific citrus notes included in the fragrance. The juniper berry is also a noticeable opening note, fresh, woody, piney, green, resinous. The pimento is the spicy note, and it is very noticeable, hot, and piquant with a peppery touch. As the fragrance commences to dry-down, the sharpness of the citrus notes starts to dissipate, simultaneously, the clary sage starts developing creating a new projection and intensity but without adding itself as a note; the cedar and vetiver join to add a fresh woody and green touch. The fragrance has a few but noticeable opening to dry-down changes, the opening is soft and the citrus notes are prominent, but just for a moment, as the dissipate, the spicy, green, and woody notes enter the blend creating a new fresh, sharp and improved projection. The dry-down is much better than the opening. Once D&G K Men EDT has reached its full dry-down, it can be summarized as a moderate projection, juniper berry, pimento, vetiver, and cedar fragrance with spicy and citrus accords. The fragrance feels casual, fresh, gentle, green, grassy, masculine, modern, piquant, playful, resinous, refreshing, sharp, short-lived, woody, and pleasant. How is it the same, but different? I know what gin smells like, but I have no idea what juniper berries alone smells like, so perhaps it’s the berries that sets this one apart from the other summer fragrances?
