The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2014, Ambre Elixir Precieux by Dior is an Oriental fragrance that embodies the luxurious and intricate nature of its collection. Created by François Demachy, this scent is part of Les Elixirs Precieux—a series inspired by the oriental tradition of layering scents. The composition features a rich blend of amber, animalic notes, powdery warmth, and soft spices, creating an aura that is both sensual and sophisticated.
Apply Ambre Elixir Precieux directly to pulse points for an intense experience. The powdery base notes take time to develop fully, so allow a few minutes before dressing or applying additional layers. It's best enjoyed in the evening when its rich tones can be fully appreciated.

François Demachy
Dior's guardian of dreamsFrançois Demachy is the in-house perfumer-creator at Christian Dior, a title that places him among the most influential noses in the world. Born in Cannes and raised in Grasse — the historic capital of perfumery — he carries the craft in his blood.
“Early on, I memorised a whole host of notes without even realising it. I could recognise moss and flowers. My nose educated itself.”
