Model Naomi Campbell for D&G L'Imperatrice 3 perfumeTyson Ballou for D&G Le Bateleur 1 fragrance

Dolce & Gabbana’s D&G line will launch The D&G Fragrance Anthology in September. The five fragrances, Le Bateleur 1, L’Imperatrice 3, L’Amoureaux 6, La Roue de la Fortune 10 and La Lune 18, were “inspired by different tarot cards, each with a distinct identity and represented by a different model, some of them iconic and all of them naked in the advertising”.

Le Bateleur 1 (shown above right) ~ the ad features Tyson Ballou, the fragrance has aromatic and aquatic notes, cedar and vetiver…

Dolce & Gabbana The One For Men cologne

It’s spring — the perfect time to release ambery, spicy, oriental fragrances full of coffee, musk, cocoa, patchouli, ambergris and vanilla…right?

I told her I had already tried Gucci Pour Homme II, so she suggested Lancôme Hypnôse Homme or Terre d’Hermès or Dunhill Pursuit or Fleur du Mâle or Viktor & Rolf Antidote or Lacoste Elegance or …. Finally, I asked point-blank about Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue Pour Homme and she said, “That’s OK — but it smells like lots of other colognes.” Her response was unusual; at Nordstrom all scents are “wonderful,” “fabulous” or, at the very least, “interesting”…
