Velvet Sicily is a fragrance by Dolce&Gabbana. Released in 2018. It has the top notes of Bergamot, middle notes of Jasmine and Rose, and base notes of Heliotrope, Musk, and Sandalwood.
Sicily is an interesting scent, one I have spent time deciding whether I actually like it or not. The original Sicily lists a dominant banana accord which seems to be missing in this re-release unfortunately. This is a sweet creamy white floral at its core, and a good one at that. The pure, delicate soapy freshness of orange blossom and other white florals is what makes up the bulk of this scent - it’s gentle and unassuming in its journey. An array of other florals join in as well, alongside a certain fluffy creamy facet which I can only imagine is coming from the sandalwood and heliotrope. Overall it’s a nice scent. I wouldn’t have grouped it in with the Velvet line as Dolce & Gabbana eventually decided to do, as it doesn’t smell as expensive and luxurious as the others within that range. As I said, it’s a nice white floral but nothing groundbreaking or too memorable.
