I love the original The One. Thought I'd give this version (Gentleman) a try. The top notes remind me of anise, but the end notes settle into the classic, popular D & G The One: very warm, woody, vanilla. It's a romantic scent. Can be worn during a date, night out with your significant other, chill by the fireplace. I don't like strong scents, so just one spray of the scent works for me.
I've tried the other D&G The One scents, and this one is the best by far: Most balanced, most well-crafted, and pleasing to me and others. Great value, and I'm glad I got this! :-)
