Sexy Mens Cologne

Reviewing: Dolce & Gabbana The One For Men
Purchased at: Dillard's     Price: $70.00 USD

My husband and I were trying to find him a new cologne a few months ago and came across Dolce and Gabbana's, "The One" for men. Now, as many may already know, what smells great to a woman, may not be the same for the man wearing it, so this sometimes causes a battle of the noses for us.

But when we smelled "The One", we decided we both really did like it and my husband put the cologne on and we tested it throughout the day. The scent lingered all day long and is not overpowering. It's a very "sexy" cologne and along the lines of a spicier scent, as you can see by the following ingredients:

Ingredients: Grapefruit, Coriander, Basil, Cardamom, Ginger, Orange Blossom, Cedar, Tobacco, and Ambergris - HOW can you go wrong with these ingredients? Now, the "tobacco" was the only ingredient that I was concerned about, but was I every wrong?

I went back a week later and purchased the gift set for my husband at a price of $70. But I have seen it come down over the past few months, which is a good thing, because he will soon need some more.

The cologne bottle holds 3.3 oz of Eau de Toilette Spray
The After Shave Balm holds 2.5 oz of the same scent

My husband is 6'3" and very confident and this cologne goes right along with that confidence. This cologne definitely adds to his "status" and everyone really likes the scent as well. Plus, he doesn't smell like every other guy out there and it's very distinct. You just can't stop smelling this cologne.

So next time you are at the mall, stop by and check it out. I am sure the man in your life will enjoy it too and if you are a man, go check it out. Women really do love this scent.

Who would have thought TOBACCO would actually smell wonderful?

Update On May 13, 2010: Well, hubby is totally out of his favorite cologne. So we need to head out and get him more. It is one of our favorites.

Update On Jun 21, 2010: We were at Sam's Club yesterday and my mother-in-law bought my husband a new bottle of this cologne. What a blessing and the price was only $55.00, which is $15.00 less than in the department stores. We are both quite happy and really do enjoy the combination of ingredients in this. Even the cashier was raving about it.

I know! I don't like most tobaccos and the main reason we bought it was because the salesman said "chocolate". Uh - BIG difference there. I think you will like the scent. So far it's our favorite.

How would you rate the strength of the smell from scale of 1 to 10 (10 being really strong). I don't mind either way but my wife has certain allergies and strong colognes and perfumes can irritate her sinuses as well.

I have the same problem too and can't tolerate many colognes, let alone perfumes. I'd say the scent is not strong at all and on the scale for scent, I'd give it a 9-10 but if considering the "perfume scent", I'd put it around 4-5. It's a long lasting scent but not overpowering at all - if that makes sense? I'd suggest going by the fragrance counter and testing it first to try it out and how she reacts by how it smells on you. I think she'll really like it. All I know is I don't tear up or sneeze at all when my husband wears it.
