The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2011 by Dior, Aqua Fahrenheit is a Woody Floral Musk fragrance for men, crafted by François Demachy. The composition begins with the brightness of grapefruit and mandarin orange, balanced by mint and basil's fresh spicy notes. As it evolves, violet adds an unexpected touch of floral softness before giving way to leather and vetiver, grounding the scent in a powdery woody base that reads as both contemporary and lasting.
Aqua Fahrenheit opens with a bright burst that fades within two hours, so apply it in layers for a more sustained effect. The powdery base notes emerge gradually, making this fragrance ideal for daytime wear when you want to start fresh and end with warmth.

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.”
