Launched in 2007 by François Demachy for Dior, Passage No.4 is part of a trio of fragrances designed to honor fashion icons Stella Tennant, Kate Moss, and Gisele Bündchen. This particular scent, dedicated to the aristocratic and eccentric Stella Tennant, combines tuberose with green accords, creating an intriguing balance between floral richness and natural freshness. The animalic undertones add a subtle depth that evokes a sense of mystery and sophistication.

Application Tips
Passage No.4 is best applied close to skin for an intimate experience — it's not designed to fill a room but to create a personal atmosphere around you. The floral notes are most prominent in the first hour, so reapply if you want them to linger longer.
