In plain words

The main accords of Dolce Gabbana are aromatic and floral. It opens with Aldehydes and Basil, reveals Carnation and Marigold at its heart, and dries down to Sandalwood and Vanilla. It lasts very long and projects strongly; people reach for it in autumn and winter, mostly in the evening.
