DUA DESIGNER LINE
Dolce & Gabbana has long held a place of honor in the world of men’s designer fragrances, with timeless classics like Light Blue and Pour Homme. But few have left a mark quite like The One, especially the coveted 2008 original formulation. Sadly, with each passing year, reformulations have stripped it of its strength and character. That’s where we come in. Introducing 1 And Only, our tribute to that unforgettable scent, a masterfully crafted Dolce and Gabbana The One dupe that brings back everything you loved, and more. Our chemists set out to replicate not just the scent, but the soul of the original. From the vibrant opening of Coriander, Basil, and Grapefruit, to the aromatic heart of Ginger, Orange Blossom, and Cardamom, this fragrance captures every layer with precision. A rich base of Amber, Tobacco, and Cedarwood creates an irresistible masculine warmth that lingers for hours, making this the best alternative to one for men who value long-lasting elegance and sophistication. With 1 And Only, you don’t just wear a fragrance, you reclaim a legend.
CLASSIFICATION: Woody Spicy
NOTES: Coriander, Basil, Grapefruit, Ginger, Orange Blossom, Cardamom, Amber, Cedarwood, & Tobacco.

Overall rating: 4.9 / 5 from 55 reviews.
This smells mostly like the original. That being said, this reminds me of more of a aquatic than a wood or a spice. I get that nickle soaking in water vibe when I put it on (that taste in your mouth just as you are being electrocuted) it does dry into a nicer form but not my favorite start. The quest for a new favorite scent continues
I need the luxe size in this one
Super awesome right off the bat. Def buying hubby some BUB!!
Received last night along with 2 other Duas. It was the third one I sprayed so I didn't get much with my nose already getting worked out. Ff to this morning, 6am(1 shot on forearm) and still going strong at noon. Great woody amber and smooth tobacco dry down. Sexy af!
Smells just like my og bottle from a very long time ago. This Dua stuff lasts way way longer tho and a lot more dense, projects like crazy. Love it, gets better the longer you own it.
Great deal nice smeel like og but only change the base maybe the fixed that used , smeel particularity like this with other dua fragances although has good longevity and soft proyection Smeel kind of similar to the og
Fantastic DNA
Very good smelling perfume. After the first burst of coriander and ginger, it begins to mellow down. The orange/grapefruit makes itself known, with a hint of basil. It finishes out with tobacco, and a hint of spice. It reminds me of the early 00s scents that had a clear impact when you walk into the room, that were alluring, that everyone wanted to know what you are wearing. This is an OG, even though I never owned the OG that it is based on.
Smells exactly like the original but i thought it was gonna be a 3.4 oz. Read your labels people. Completely my fault.
This is an advice for new users, The first time you use one of these fragrances, you will smell a lot of alcohol, just alcohol I would say, but don't think it's a scam or it's trash, this is because of the concentration, it has strong alcohol that will be very strong, but just give it 10 or 15 minutes and all the beautiful notes of the fragrance will be there, I love this, it's the same scent of the DC the one for men but wayyyyyy more stronger and intense, My favorite,
It actually smells like the original. This is amazing. And one spray gets the job done. Lasts for hours. If you miss having the original Dolce & Gabbana One like I do, get yourself one of these. You won’t regret it.
Simply love it 🥰
I like the smell and how long it lasts. Be careful use in moderation at first. Very similar to the original.
Bought this by accident. Thought it was the One for women, it wasn't. Still smells good but very masculine. Gave it to a friend and he was tooo happy to receive it.
So much stronger than the original- what a difference. Totally worth every penny. I’m thanking my son for giving me the referral.
Reminded me of when I first smelled The One in Las Vegas in 2010, took me back. Identical smell, I'm not sure about longevity at the moment as I haven't macerated it yet, but I can say it lasts a while. Beautiful scent from top to bottom. Thank you again DUA!
This is a weapon Seriously, fellas. Hope you’re ready to be a Dad! 🤷🏻♂️
Better than the real one I own 10 Dua frags and this one I think is my favorite. I own a bottle of D&G The One, but like many people, I find it to be short lived. The Dua version smells very similar to the real one, but better. I can't really place it but I feel it's more complex and delicious. Maybe there's just a little more of everything in it. There's more juiciness and more woodiness. It's slightly sweet, citric, airy and woody, and of course it features moderately rich tobacco note. It's also behaves relatively linearly just like the original, which is pretry crazy. What you smell is what you get. No weird surprises in the drydown. None of it is overbearing. It's really excellent. Really. I'm curious to see how this matures in the bottle over the next few months. Also, you should note that this is not cheaper than the original on an ounce per ounce basis. But I'd say if you're trying to decide between the original and this, go for this. It's better.
YEP! Gentlemen. Picture it. Literally a year ago...I had 3 scents. My wife on the other hand had like 80. I got into colognes because frankly, I wanted her to tell me I smelled good..lol. So I go to Facebook and ask the guys their top 3 must have scents. After a good friend said CREED AVENTUS and I saw how much it was, I quickly said damn...this stuff is out of my price range. Said friend introduced me to Dua. I'm 40...so when I was waaaaaaay younger...like 10...my older cousin used to wear Issey Miyake so much that I will never forget the smell of it. So...to make sure Dua was legit, I searched for Issey on Dua's website. When I got the bottle and sprayed it, it reminded me of cuz. You know how the internet works...and as soon as you're searching for something, you'll get ads and articles about that thing. Lists of must have colognes kept popping up and Dolce and Gabbana The One was on a lot of lists. Those 3 scents that I said I had?? Light Blue was one of them. So I figured I'd blind buy this just off the strength of the DG name. Brothers, listen. I was in an urban hair store. You know they smell like wigs. Lol. Still...3 women within the 5 minutes I was in there told me how good I smelled with this on. I have no idea if it's spot on with the OG, but in my experience, Dua don't miss. I think it's safe to say if you like the original DG The One, get you some 1 and only NOW!!! And even if it's a blind buy...you won't be disappointed. Get some. STAT
I want to Eat my Husband 🩵 I have come to realize that with almost 30 Duas, these scents are just about 100% spot on. This scent is so sexy, sweet(a manly sweet)and alluring. I have The One (Dua) and this is a deep masculine version. The Amberwood and the light tobacco in the dry down is perfect.
1 AND ONLY Smell amazing and it last a long time. I’m glad that i purchased this fragrance.
If you don’t know now you know I have to say Dua Brand 1 & Only is off the chain. The smell good turns heads and people ask questions. 1 & Only is long lasting and it’s better then the original. Thanks! Dua Brand 😁
The One is back! An excellent interpretation of the 2008 original release EDT! The blending is really impressive as the nuanced opening of grapefruit, ginger, basil and orange blossom are all there. As an extrait, all you need is 1 spray and you are good for several hours. I already have 2 vintage 2008 bottles of The One, but I will definitely extend them by wearing this. Thanks Dua!
Me parece un perfume interesante y atractivo, huele rico
Amazing, brings me back to the original The One. I can't tell the difference myself between this and the real deal. If you love The One, just get this one and save yourself some money to buy another frag. This one is great!
My first time smelling this scent and just so addicting to relax while watching the movies or reading a book
What a fragrance! Quality. Longevity. Much better than the DG One.
My 1 And Only This is the 1 And Only fragrance I wear from D&G.. absolutely a best fragrance from start to finish, the ladies love it and it last 8+ hours… I would definitely recommend any guy to have this in their collection. 🔥 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Me transporta a tiempos felices Gracia Dua por revivir esta hermosa fragancia, me trae muy buenos recuerdos de bellos tiempos, fiestas, viajes y amigos. Ahora señor Raza si puede leer este comentario quería pedirle un favor, que vuelva a traer de vuelta la vieja dolce gabana ligth blue 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏, ya que es otra de mis viejas favoritas, pero el aroma y las reformulaciones de hoy la han arruinado.
The ONE....that got away, until now (and that I don't understand) I'm old. My girlfriend is young. And obviously she has very good taste. She says she loves The One. That's enough for me. I go buy it again after many years. I have no prior memory of its scent. $50.00 for 5 ounces. That's a lot of perfume for $50.00. I literally bathe in it. I read all the reviews. And there's a lot. 95% say its the best if not one of the best. Women seem to love it. And that's enough for most. How can they still smell it after 30 minutes? I get next to nothing. And no I have not gone smell blind. For many men, apparently it is the perfect scent; they smell very little of it, and the woman is going crazy for what is there. After 10 minutes, I really can't smell it unless I go skin. I want to like it. But there is no love. It is is weak. It is not special. I feel alone. Me and a ghost perfume. Then I try DUA's; thinking if anyone can save me it's DUA. You can smell all it has to offer. There seems to be a lot of wishful thinking in what everyone wants The One to smell like if it only had legs: hidden smells that waft your way on occasion. I just don't see how anyone could have really rated the original as you can barely smell it except right after you spray it. if you are in love with that original blast, you've got it now. For hours. But even DUA can't save what's not there. To me, and apparently only me. It's not the perfume that is The One, it's me. The only one who just doesn't get it.
phenomenal I have 2 bottles of d&g the one, but this one from Dua is better in everything, aroma projection, duration, I think that d&g should contact you to learn how to improve a perfume
I really need it! Please Restock Dua :(
10-Oct PLEASE RESTOCK
That’s it First DUA purchase and it is spot on. Will definitely be trying others.
This is... The One I've had my bottle for almost a year. However, I wore it yesterday. Through a mask I received an unsolicited compliment. Mind you, I sprayed it on around 3hrs earlier. This fragrance is beast mode once it's macerated. You'll definitely get whiffs throughout your day. Personally, I like compliments. If that's what you're looking for, then purchase this. It's honestly... The One lol
Amazing Not quite an exact clone but close enough for me. And unlike the original, performance is off the charts here, 8+ hours easy. It’s incredible.
🏆YES👍🏾👍🏾 No question💯 3 words: BIGGER BOTTLE SOON
Very very nice Yes this one is a good one. Only problem is it’s weak and doesn’t last long . Being that I just got this one. I’m gonna let it macerate a few months. I do love it , just needs to be stronger. Great job on this one DUA.
Awesome!! After owning the OG many years ago and buying a recent bottle to which the performance was dreadful I stumbled upon the 1 and only! All I can say is Dua you are bang on the money , the smell is pretty much identical I’d even go as far as saying I’d prefer it to the OG. 3 sprays and it projected for a good 4 to 5 hours and longevity was around 13 hours .....no joke! This is a clear no brainier! Mahsam Raza I salute you and what you are doing! Your like the Robin Hood of the fragrance world 💯 🔥
On point If you like the one, buy this you'll regret buying the OG, because I really have no use for it now....
