Icon Pour Femme
Dsquared2 Icon Pour Femme Eau de Parfum 100ml is the sweet one in the house's range, and the praline in the middle is what makes it so. Sweet fragrances are easy to make badly, and the jasmine here is what keeps this one upright.
The opening is citrus but it does not last long. Mandarin orange and lemon are bright and juicy, with pink pepper adding a dry crackle on top, and within twenty minutes the fragrance has moved on. Jasmine fills the middle with a rich, slightly heady white floral note, and praline comes in beside it, sweet and nutty and toasted, which is the moment the scent shows what it is for. The base is soft and comfortable: sandalwood creamy, vanilla sweet and rounded, musk warm and skin close, the three of them making a finish that is easy to live with and lasts. Praline is the material that defines it, and it is used generously rather than as a hint.
Eight materials, released in 2024, built for pleasure rather than for complexity. There is no fruit after the opening and no spice beyond the pink pepper, which keeps the attention on the sweetness. Eau de parfum strength makes a real difference here. Sweet materials fade fast at lower concentrations, and the extra oil keeps the praline and vanilla present for six hours or more, with noticeable projection for the first two. Two sprays is plenty. It also projects more than most sweet fragrances, so apply it before you dress rather than after.
It is a women's fragrance, it is at its best in cold weather and after dark, and it suits anyone who wants a dessert sweetness with a floral middle rather than pure sugar. The 100ml bottle is the only size worth considering if you wear it regularly. Anyone who finds the heavier dessert fragrances too much will find this a more wearable version of the same idea.
