The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Chris 1947 by Dior was launched in 2003 as a limited edition floral green fragrance for women. This rare perfume captures the essence of romance, spontaneity, and rock 'n' roll with its sparkling fruity-floral tones that transition into a sensual woody-musky base. The top notes of cranberry create an immediate freshness, while sweet pea, violet, lily-of-the-valley, freesia, and cactus blossom fill the heart with dynamic passion. The musk base rounds out the composition with sensuality and warmth. Presented in a pink and glittery bottle that echoes the glamour of Diorissimo, Chris 1947 is a rare find, available only in select European perfumeries and airport duty-free shops.

How to wear it

Apply this fragrance once or twice for optimal effect; its top notes are fleeting but make way for a lasting heart and base. This scent is best suited for daytime wear, as it offers subtle warmth without overpowering the environment.
