It’s just alright. The scent does not last, which is expected with any eau de toilette. I would go with the eau de parfum version in the long run. It’s about a third more in price than the toilette, but lasts ten times longer.

I usually give good reviews or do not review it at all. I got this in the mail a few weeks ago on the bottle itself the name DOLCE GABBANA is on there with a vinyl texture almost like electrical tape and it is smearing all over the bottle when you touch it like the letter l c e and the g is all separated from the word. That had me worried but the smell is very light I spray 18 to 20 squirts and honestly within a half an hour unless you stick your nose to my shirt you cannot smell nothing. I have bought authentic cologne from eBay in the past and it was wonderful cheap. this time very disappointed. I'm not going to say it's fake. maybe it's just horrible cologne quality in general

I came across D&G The One over the holidays. I had to have it. The One for Men is a warm, sweet and fruity tobacco perfume in the oriental genre. It as "a spicy, oriental perfume developed on the harmony of tobacco with refined boisé notes". The flacon is meant to directly reflect the fashion sense of the brand as "the proportions of the bottle recall a tailor suit made by the fashion house" (see also Narciso Rodriguez for Him). Noteworthy points are the fact that the scent emphasizes the fruity tonality - less common a phenomenon for masculine fragrances than for feminine ones currently (see Calvin Klein Man) - and that you can find a well-developed quote in the heart from a famous discontinued Italian oriental classic....... Although The One for Men offers a classic personality in essence, it nevertheless manages in the beginning - after a conventional woody aromatic preamble - to open the curtains on a surprise sensation of sweet, dark fruity, compote-like (stewed fruits) notes, with some light-handed gourmand strawberry tart and candied licorice/aniseed (Car-en-Sac) undertones. It feels mostly warm, a bit syrupy, with some surface fresh aromatic impressions. The scent evolves into a distinct remembrance quote from Laura Biagiotti Venezia in this intense feeling of an oriental that must have been lightly roasted over fire and which at the same time is almost overly ornate and rich, bulbous and gilded like the Oriental domes of Venice. The fruity-floral aroma that made Venezia unique in its showcasing of a Chinese bloom, introduced by Marco Polo, Wong-shi blossom, together with mango, prune, osmanthus - seems to be present here but expanding after a while into a more generous and simple dose of a peachy sensation followed by under-touches of licorice and strawberry crème pâtissière (these are secondary nuances, not main ones). The sweetish licorice is edged with a pruney ribbon while the light creamy sensation endures. The distinct spicy mango scent, like an echo of Venezia, lingers on in The One for Men for a surprising while. It constitutes an interesting cultural reference within the Italian tradition of perfume brands and a clever marketing move, no doubt, based on an effect of familiar recognition that might remain unconscious - and all the more effective - to a number of people. The tobacco that so far played a discreet second fiddle becomes more palpable overtime with its slightly smoky and honeyed accents evoking the humid, moistened shreds of tobacco tightly kept in a glass jar. The perfume tends to evolve into a well-blended soft scent punctuated by a somewhat more banal spicy, metallic clove counterpoint. The scent espouses the contours of one's skin fairly easily although a somewhat less mellow tartness like a hint of sour prunes on a bed of vanilla also get emphasized. The dry-down is warm, balsamic, amberey (resinous), pleasant, even delicious after a while when the fruits mingle more deeply with the amber and some conventional masculine notes fade away. The One for Men could be easily worn by women. If it is classically masculine on the whole, with a modern adapted feel, it seems to belong to the type of the slightly child-like, vulnerable macho who lets his feminine side show (fruits) and likes to wear an Oriental paisley-patterned silk robe at home with soft leather slippers. Not exactly the rough type. If playing a parlor game, we would say that it is recommended for self-assured, warm,Read full review

After launching more than successful fragrance for women, The One, Dolce&Gabbana house will, at the beginning of March 2008, launch a fragrance for men named The One for Men. Creating this fragrance, Stefano Gabbana was following the idea of creating an uomo, a very masculine fragrance, and a very classic one, "not a banal classic, but a classic men's fragrance that would last for years and be the type of scent that women adore". The notes of this fragrance are composed in accordance with the Gabbana creator's taste, who wanted to create a woody-oriental composition. In line with that Gabbana said: '"I like spicy-oriental notes and we've never done these types of fragrances, it's a little warmer than our other men's scents". Fragrance The One for Men opens with sparkling notes of bergamot, coriander and basil, the middle motes bring in cardamom, ginger and neroli, while the base notes create a very masculine trace of cedar, ambergris and tobacco. The fragrance is created in cooperation with P&G Prestige Product and International Flavors & Fragrances Inc. (IFF). It comes in a glass made bottle that matches the shape of The One for Women bottle, only with silver-metal neck and chocolate-brown rectangular top. The model of the fragrance advertising campaign will be the actor Matthew McConaughey, who will next week join the designers in the NYC. When it comes to the choice of the model, the Dolce&Gabbana designers said that they wanted to have the sexiest man on the planet. And with regards to that, Gabbana adds that this is the first time that a model in one of D&G men's fragrance campaigns appears in clothes.Read full review
