Exploring Dolce & Gabbana Velvet Blue Musk: A Dark Sensuality Captured in Fragrance

The Velvet Collection, woven into lush velvet, takes you on an intimate journey, reflecting the designers’ love for Italy and their personal olfactive experiences. Velvet Blue Musk, created by the talented perfumer Mathilde Bijaoui, recreates the suave memories of eternal Sicily, using rich, luxurious ingredients to evoke the essence of the island.

This new addition to the Velvet Collection is a woody-musky fragrance that beautifully combines the warmth and shimmering sensuality of musk with the vibrant notes of saffron and damask rose. As you inhale this scent, you will be transported to the mesmerizing beauty of Sicily, where the ocean breeze flows through palaces, and the island is adorned with a multitude of trees.

As with all fragrances in the Velvet Collection, Velvet Blue Musk opens with sparkling top notes of saffron, cardamom, and cumin, creating a vibrant and spicy introduction. The heart of the fragrance reveals the intensity of damask rose, complemented by creamy sandalwood and cypriol, evoking a sense of opulence and intrigue. Finally, the base notes unfold, leaving a trail of musk, almond-soft tonka bean, and cedarwood, which lingers on the skin with an alluring aura.

Dolce & Gabbana has perfectly encapsulated its dark sensuality in a collection of eau de parfums, recognizing the power of scent as one of the strongest and most empowering senses. Velvet Blue Musk, in particular, captures the essence of Sicily, from the ocean breeze caressing the palaces to the abundance of flora and fruit trees that dot the island.
