Dolce & Gabbana, that powerhouse of Italian style, launched Devotion Eau de Parfum in 2023, a scent crafted by perfumer genius Olivier Cresp, as an ode to love and femininity.
What does Devotion EDP smell like? Devotion has a mouthwatering aroma of candied lemon, delicate florals, and warm gourmand vanilla notes with a slightly boozy backdrop.
But before you rush out to add this beauty to your fragrance wardrobe, let me give you my personal take on what makes Devotion EDP so special and why I feel it’s worth a spritz or two!
Dolce & Gabbana Devotion Eau de Parfum
Review
Dolce & Gabbana Devotion Eau de Parfum is a sweet citrus-floral fragrance that marries sweetened citrus notes with delicate florals and a warm, gourmand base.
Devotion opens with an enticing burst of candied citrus that immediately captivates, reminding me of Limoncello… lemony, boozy, but not too sharp.
The elegant aroma of orange blossom in the heart delivers a gentle yet sophisticated floral embrace with warm vanilla, introducing an inviting and elegant lingering trail.

Seasons & Longevity
Devotion is the perfect companion for any season (especially spring and autumn) when you want to embrace the warmth of the sun and the blossoming flowers around you.
For occasions, it’s versatile: brunches, daytime strolls, evening dinners, and even casual office days. There’s a sophistication to this perfume that gives you a touch of luxury without being over the top.
As for longevity, this fragrance sticks around for up to 5+ hours on my skin with a moderate scent bubble that doesn’t overwhelm.
