Our take

What does K by Dolce & Gabbana smell like?

Launched by Dolce & Gabbana in 2019, K by Dolce & Gabbana draws on the idea of a modern king, in a bottle topped with a crown. It takes its energy from the southern Italian sun. The opening is radiant, with juniper berries, blood orange and lemon giving a fruity, resinous, slightly bitter freshness. The heart turns aromatic and spiced, as pimento, lavender, clary sage and geranium form a bracing chord that is clean and warm at once. The base of vetiver, cedar and patchouli offers a dry, earthy woody footing that adds staying power without weight. The result is a versatile, bright woody aromatic that is easy to wear by day.

When to wear it

Daytime and office wear from spring to autumn; it suits men who like fresh, citrusy woody aromatics.

VerdictA pleasant, well-made woody aromatic, though fairly predictable in a crowded category.
