Where to buy

Dolce & Gabbana launched Devotion in October 2023, two years after bringing its beauty business in-house, previously licensed to the Japanese group Shiseido. BW Confidential presented the fragrance as a major launch for the brand, signed by Olivier Cresp, of Firmenich.

A panettone in a bottle

According to Incenza, Olivier Cresp’s first idea was to work on panettone, the Italian brioche with candied fruit. After meeting Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana, the perfumer added Madagascar vanilla, alongside Sicilian lemon peel, orange blossom and rum essence.

The Sacred Heart

The house places Devotion under the sign of the Sacred Heart, a universal symbol of love that it says carries its values, and which, BW Confidential notes, also appears on its bags, shoes and jewelry. It describes a seductive, reassuring sensory journey.

The house has since expanded the line: in 2025, it presents, alongside the original, an intense eau de parfum in which hazelnut takes over from the candied citrus, and My Devotion Eau de Parfum Intense, opening on pear blossom.

What critics say

Persolaise sees Devotion as a treat from start to finish, probably one of the best things from Dolce & Gabbana in a long time, even if he places it a notch below Bake, by Olivier Cresp.

Katy Perry in Capri

Katy Perry, on holiday in Capri, crosses paths with a young fisherman played by Michele Morrone, in the October 2023 launch film.

For the launch, unveiled on October 2, 2023, Katy Perry spends her holiday in Capri, between the Marina Grande and its pier. According to Marie Claire, she exchanges glances with a young fisherman, played by Italian actor Michele Morrone, whom she meets again in the evening at a party.

In 2025, the house entrusted Academy Award winner Paolo Sorrentino with a new film for the Devotion line, again in Capri, with Katy Perry and Michele Morrone: an encounter at the port, among the boats and the scent of orange blossom, that continues at a party.
