Christian Dior Fragrances: Old Classics & New

Author: realwomanjeans

Christian Dior was a very influential French designer and created the Christian Dior brand, which produces haute couture as well as retailing it. Christian Dior SA also produces makeup, skincare and fragrances and some of their perfumes are amongst the most popular today.
The first Christian Dior perfume was the Miss Dior launched in 1947. The Miss Dior perfume contains aldehydes, gardenia, bergamot, carnation, jasmine, neroli, rose, narcissus, leather, sandalwood, amber, patchouli, oakmoss and vetiver amongst its many notes.
Considered by many to be a classic, the Miss Dior fragrance is very feminine, classy and although it has been altered with the passage of time, still retains the core of what made it such a success in the first place.
Some of the more popular Christian Dior fragrances include J'adore Floreale, Miss Dior Cherie, Midnight Poison, Forever and Ever, J'adore L'Absolu, Addict Shine, Pure Poison, Addict 2, Diorella, Addict, Poison, Dune, Hypnotic Poison, Dolce Vita, Diorissimo and Escale A Portofino.
Eau Fraiche was launched in 1953 and is still in production chiefly because of its immense popularity. Categorized as a classic by Dior itself, the Eau Fraiche has mandarin orange and lemon top notes. The heart is rosewood and the base notes are vanilla and oak moss.
Dune is a more recent creation, launched in 1991, this perfume features bergamot, mandarin, palisander, aldehyde, peony and broom as its top notes. Heart notes include jasmine, rose, ylang-ylang, lily, wallflower and lichen.
The base notes are vanilla, patchouli, benzoin, sandalwood, amber, oakmoss, and musk and overall Christian Dior Dune elicits an oceanside or desert feel that is a great signature scent and smells fresh comforting.
Amongst the latest Dior fragrances is the Christian Dior Addict, which was initially made available in 2002. Remarkable for its strong vanilla scent, the Dior Addict has strong sillage and staying power and is for this reason vastly popular.
Unlike many scents that become popular due to floral, woodsy or fruity scents that are stereotypically feminine, the Dior Addict is an oriental fragrance that has a very strong scent at the beginning that gradually mellows down to a beautiful, warm vanilla scent with hints of incense and sandalwood.
Dior perfumes are not typical commercial perfumes targeted for the teen or tween market. Each scent has a unique personality which some may like and others hate, but considering the success of Dior fragrances, it seems quite clear that many more like them than hate them.
