The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Dioressence Eau Parfumée by Dior was launched in 1969 and created by perfumer Guy Robert. This composition opens with a vibrant citrus-aromatic blend, featuring bergamot and orange, before transitioning into a rich blend of floral and warm spicy notes. The heart of the fragrance is anchored by carnation, geranium, violet, orris, jasmine, rose, ylang-ylang, and tuberose, all supported by aldehydes that add an animalic depth. The base includes cinnamon, ambergris, vanilla, oakmoss, benzoin, musk, patchouli, vetiver, and styrax, creating a warm, enveloping finish.

How to wear it

Apply lightly to pulse points — this parfum is concentrated enough that it builds on skin over time. The aldehydes will unfold first, followed by the floral heart notes. Best worn in cooler weather when the warmth of its base notes can truly shine.
