Smell is ever so slightly different from the way I remember the original but still this is instantly recognizable. Yes ladies (and gents) this is the Sicily we loved. Beautiful, memorable, recognizable. Very long lasting, a bit sweeter and leaning feminine in the middle but the dry down to me is very unisex and reminiscent of gaultier’s Fleur du Male. Note that stood out mostly to me is the heliotrope. The people that loved the original Sicily, myself included, will be over the moon with this re issue. I probably will have to save some money and treat myself at some point. Now can we please have a re issue of the original red cap- pour femme version? thank you!

Confirmed by the girl assistant from my Dolce&Gabbana, She went to a training and they explained that is exactly the same. Is a fragrance very important for the designers, they contribuited with all their heart in all first Sicily proyect, so they wanted to bring it back. It couldn’t be commercial wideable as marketing is more strict and needs higher sales objectives and Sicily is not a mass appeal… that’s why owns into Velvet collection.

If not the same, it’s very very similar to the original Sicily! Maybe I can smell the Heliotrope a little more, and it adds a sweet, powdery touch. It’s also very intense! I love it!!!

Yes, it is, as I mentioned before some notes are not revealed in many cases just because marketing strategies. For example in lately creations, aldehydes is a note which is often not showed in public pyramid notes to us… Maybe is because some are scared with only reading the word and “out of sight, out of mind”.

Is it possible to be exactly the same since so many notes from the original are missing?

It is exactly the same 2003 Sicily, despite notes as Banana or Aldehyde are not mentioned, I think (the same) because merchandising purpose, are very noticeable. A great and clever idea by Dolce&Gabbana to create it again. One of the few relaunch truly identical as the original. Marvellous fragrance, unique combination, real womanly and assertive. Bravo!, really thanks for bringing us this masterpiece back!!.

These notes exactly, along with the honeycuckle, were noted in DG site for my favorite 2003’s Sicily. I was wearing it for 10 years.
The velvet collection is extremely expensive…
I cannot understand why they don’t offer the perfume at an honest price for all of us who have been patiently waiting for its return in the last few years instead of selling it exclusively to immensely rich women……
