Dolce And Gabbana Launching Perfume For Babies To Make Them Smell Even More Like Babies

    The fragrance was inspired by "a mother's sweet hug" and a baby's first smile.

    Fashion house Dolce & Gabbana is preparing to launch a perfume designed to enhance the natural smell of a newborn baby.

    "How can babies smell even sweeter than they already do?" designer Stefano Gabbana asked on Instagram earlier this month alongside a picture that appears to show the new product's box.

    Gabbana told The New York Daily News that the fragrance was inspired by "the softness of baby skin, the freshness of baby breath, a mother's sweet hug, [and] the first smile." The alcohol-free perfume will contain notes of citrus, honey and melon and will cost $45 for a 50-ml bottle.

    This isn't the first time a high-end brand has created a baby-inspired scent. Burberry and Bvlgari launched similar baby perfumes back in 2010.
