I love them both so much!!! Some of my top favorites of all time. Can't wait to get the new one for Christmas! I wear the original everyday and get so many compliments. Would love to smell your version one day!
I'm so excited about an intense version of Devotion but I have a larger bottle of the OG to get through. As far as you creating a orange blossom perfume, I would love that! Truthfully, I have all the Soki fragrances in travel size and I love my little collection! Thank you for bringing them to the states through fragrancenet!
I’m really loving this one in the cooler weather ❤ I get almost a caramelised hazelnut in the dry down 😊 they do have a 10ml available in NA so I’m using that to make a decision on which size bottle to get. I love both versions but this one is definitely perfect for cooler weather ❤
This video is so serendipitous, because I am heading to town tomorrow to buy a 100ml bottle of Devotion Original....is on special at one of my favourite shops (Marionnaud France) for 115 euros....I have an additional voucher for 10 euros... So a good price. I have tried the new Intense, it is lovely.
just bought the original version..its just smells so good like lemon meringue. i just had a baby so im staying away from intense scent.. original is just perfect, its lighter and gentle..❤
Devotion is definitely a gourmand that I like....but I believe I would love the intense better! Because of the orange candie, orange blossom, it sounds so lovely! Thank you @Soki! 💕
Your SOKI approved fragrances have always been spot on. I will continue to always get your thoughts before purchasing. I love love orange inspired fragrances. So yes yes for your perfume. I am delighted I can find your perfumes in USA.
I tested them both in Rome last week. The Intense was way too intense for me. It was like a suckerpunch to my nose lol. I bought the parfum instead and absolutely love it! 🥰 I was so excited to actually purchase a D&G fragrance in Italy 😂. I sweat a lot, so I wouldn’t wear this sweet scent in the summer months. This time of year is perfect for me 😀
I love lemony sweet perfumes like Akro Bake and Lira but I didn’t like the original devotion. I got a lemon cleaner vibe that I couldn’t get past. I like the intense version much better!
I wonder how does it compares to Luna by Nina Ricci? Since both have orange blossom and vanilla/caramel in the notes. It's such a shame that Luna was discontinued, it was the first gourmand scent I tried and till this day I don't think there's a 1:1 alternative to it. Lira comes close but it's so very zesty, and doesn't have the wild berries or pear in the opening like Luna does. I definitely would like to see an orange blossom focused video.
Does the hazelnut note come through? I only have the original Devotion, which I love. I’m thinking of picking up the intense version soon and layering it. Super intrigued by the new notes.
I just bought the original, I dont care for the beginning citrus but the dry down is amazing. Am I the only one who got orange ice cream from the original?
Intense version is one of my new favorites, got the biggest bottle they had and it’s so good, funny because it’s very similar to OG but way better, creamier perhaps, I love hazelnut. I don’t pick up Hazelnut, but it definitely gives it Something extra 🧡
I just tried it in the store just because of the hype and I expacted nothing 😂 I love it feom the first sniff and the wierd thing here is I dont like sweet gourmand vanila perfumes 😂 I am always into fresh florals, but this perfume?? There is something amazing in it and I have to have it.
I Adore the original and ordered a big bottle of the Intense as soon as it released!! I was Super Disappointed when I received this! It had a dirty patchouli/earthy smell to me! Noone else I've seen do reviews has mentioned it so I'm wondering if I received a bad bottle?? I sooo wanted to Love this one!!!😟
again, I absolutely love dolce by dolce and Gabbana, I also love dolce, floral drops, dolce, Rose, dolce, Penny, and dolce Garden. However, again, they seem to be retiring all these wonderful fragrances. I am not too enamored with dolce shine, Q, or devotion. but, seasons changed, and so must perfumes as well, I suppose. It just makes me sad, it seems I find my sent😢, and it gets retired.
Hi, I like your idea of an orange blossom perfume. I have never tried Gucci flora but my perfume expert friends say that it was one of their favorites but has sadly been discontinued. Idk why if it was so good? I think that it had orange blossom in it? A creation similar to it may do well. Good luck.
my signature SCENT, for the longest time was dolce by dolce and Gabbana. However, dolce and Gabbana has yet again, insisted on retiring dolce, dolce floral drops, dolce, Peony, and dolce Garden. Why they do this? I will never know!😢
Bath and Body Works has a shower gel and body cream that works so well with Devotion (I also want to try Akro's Bake at some point) called Iced Lemon Pound Cake. It's a sweet lemon and vanilla scent that compliments the perfume.
I really dislike the original. Smells like lemon Pledge furniture cleaner to me. But the intense I like. Tried it in store as soon as it came out and to me it’s so much better.
I cannot stand the intense, it is so sickly and eugh for me, which I was shocked by. I love Bake and enjoy Devotion and typically prefer "Intense" versions of most fragrances

I love them both! The Intense does perform much better. But they're both so addictive and delicious!
I love that the Devotion bottles are refillable💛🧡
I love them both so much!!! Some of my top favorites of all time. Can't wait to get the new one for Christmas! I wear the original everyday and get so many compliments. Would love to smell your version one day!
Omg, this version sounds delicious! I love the original one and cannot wait to try the intense! ❤
I would like an orange blossom or just orange from you, Soki. I trust you to come up with a great one. I love these notes, for sure.
I'm so excited about an intense version of Devotion but I have a larger bottle of the OG to get through. As far as you creating a orange blossom perfume, I would love that!

Great review!! I can’t wait to try it
Thank you so much! I hope you enjoy trying it out as much as I enjoyed reviewing it!

They are very similar. I prefer intense.
Definitely ❤
Oh yummy sounding with the orange blossom 🌸
I have the OG and love it but to my taste the Intense is even better. More projecting and last longer. 💕
At first I preferred the original but now I’ve got used to the intense it’s my new fave, it has a slight deeper orange which gives it more depth.
I tested them both in Rome last week. The Intense was way too intense for me. It was like a suckerpunch to my nose lol.

I'll have to buy the intense version this year as my Xmas present to myself. 😂
I bought the original one last Xmas.
I sampled the intense and it is stunning!
I exchanged my original for the intense version.
It’s just more my cup of tea.
Devotion is one of my absolute faves!!
I have wanted to try this for a long time. Another good Dolce Gabbana scent is Garden and I gave it to my Sister
I have bought it and im not impressed its too heavy
I love the garden too! Very nice and different from others right now ❤
Definitely this intense version ❤stronger and long lasting considering prices these days
I own the original and it always makes me think of lemon meringue pie! A fun scent :)
In my opinion, hazelnut makes all the difference in edp and intense version
I’m getting the original in the mail any day now and I’m so excited 😄
I wonder how does it compares to Luna by Nina Ricci? Since both have orange blossom and vanilla/caramel in the notes.

Team Devotion Intense!
Does the hazelnut note come through? I only have the original Devotion, which I love. I’m thinking of picking up the intense version soon and layering it. Super intrigued by the new notes.
the hazelnut is there a bit but it isn't a main note in my view
I think I must be the only one not to like the new one. I returned it but did enjoy my initial travel size of the original one.
Please make a chocolate perfume sophie! 💙from New Zealand d
I just bought the original, I dont care for the beginning citrus but the dry down is amazing. Am I the only one who got orange ice cream from the original?
Make a unisex or a men’s fragrance version of this
Wow sophie we have an intense version I really like this fragrance so the intense is probably just as good.❤
Hey Soki, are you uploading a new favroities video anytime soon?
Also what lip color are you wearing in this?
Intense version is one of my new favorites, got the biggest bottle they had and it’s so good, funny because it’s very similar to OG but way better, creamier perhaps, I love hazelnut. I don’t pick up Hazelnut, but it definitely gives it Something extra 🧡
That’s so interesting. The same perfumee is from Acro. Acro Bake is nice but devotion and devotion intense are way better in my opinion.
I just tried it in the store just because of the hype and I expacted nothing 😂 I love it feom the first sniff and the wierd thing here is I dont like sweet gourmand vanila perfumes 😂 I am always into fresh florals, but this perfume?? There is something amazing in it and I have to have it.
love the intense much more than the original
I Adore the original and ordered a big bottle of the Intense as soon as it released!! I was Super Disappointed when I received this! It had a dirty patchouli/earthy smell to me! Noone else I've seen do reviews has mentioned it so I'm wondering if I received a bad bottle?? I sooo wanted to Love this one!!!😟
Agreed. I just posted a comment. My nose went into hysterics when I smelled the Intense lol. The eau de parfum is amazing on my skin
I see hazelnut is listed as a top note in the intense version. Can you smell it at all, Soki?
Does Devotion intense and Libre Intense smells similar?
No no similarities at all
I love orange blossom I am excited to try the new version of devotion. I like hazelnut do u pick up on that note at all?
Yes indeed ❤
again, I absolutely love dolce by dolce and Gabbana, I also love dolce, floral drops, dolce, Rose, dolce, Penny, and dolce Garden. However, again, they seem to be retiring all these wonderful fragrances. I am not too enamored with dolce shine, Q, or devotion. but, seasons changed, and so must perfumes as well, I suppose.

Oh my gosh, such a coincidence - my new Artemis fragrance is inspired by Gucci Flora
You got me giggling at “I think boyfriend is from Sicily”
my signature SCENT, for the longest time was dolce by dolce and Gabbana. However, dolce and Gabbana has yet again, insisted on retiring dolce, dolce floral drops, dolce, Peony, and dolce Garden. Why they do this? I will never know!😢
Thanks for sharing 🙌🏽🙏🏾
You are so welcome
Sounds beautiful, but wow, prices for designer fragrances have really increased over the past few years.
I totally agree!
Please make a review for Amor Amor Eau De Parfum by Cacharel it's a new flanker for 2024
Ooo didn’t know this had come out!
Bath and Body Works has a shower gel and body cream that works so well with Devotion (I also want to try Akro's Bake at some point) called Iced Lemon Pound Cake. It's a sweet lemon and vanilla scent that compliments the perfume.

I liked both
Is Steven truly an italian or are his relatives?
He was born in Sicily, his dad is Italian and still lives there :)
@@SokiLondon ☺️fancy
I love the OG version better
I cannot stand the intense, it is so sickly and eugh for me, which I was shocked by. I love Bake and enjoy Devotion and typically prefer "Intense" versions of most fragrances
I once was gifted Light blue from a boyfriend but its not for me
