Dolce & Gabbana The Empress Eau De Toilette: The D&G fragrance opens with an explosive cocktail of succulent fruits, juicy notes of kiwi blend with the tartness of red currants and rhubarb, which gives balance to the sweetness. The fragrance then softens into a delicate floral note of pink cyclamen. The fruity scent of the top notes echoes in the heart of the fragrance with a fresh watermelon accent: a refreshing, regenerating explosion. A warm base of sandalwood and grapefruit wood gives body and intensity to the fragrance, amplified by an enveloping trail of sensual musks.
