Luxury Italian brand Dolce & Gabbana has released a perfume for dogs named after the co-founder’s own beloved pet, Fefé.

The €99 fragrance is described as an “olfactory masterpiece” featuring ylang ylang, musk and “creamy undertones” of sandalwood.

Purchases come with a D&G dog collar adorned with a 24-carat gold-plated paw print.

Other companies also sell dog perfume at a much cheaper price, but this is the first time a big fashion house has released one.

Some experts advise against perfumes or sprays for dogs saying that some smells can be unpleasant for a dog’s sensitive nose.
