The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2004 by Dior and crafted by the renowned perfumer Edmond Roudnitska, Lily Dior is a floral masterpiece that captures the essence of delicate white florals. The composition opens with a burst of freshness from lily-of-the-valley, seamlessly blending into the heart notes of ylang-ylang and jasmine, creating an aromatic bouquet that is both enchanting and serene. The base notes of rose add a subtle sweetness, grounding the fragrance in a harmonious balance.

How to wear it

Lily Dior has moderate longevity and sillage, so a single spritz is sufficient to allow the fragrance to develop naturally on your skin. It pairs well with light fabrics and works best during daytime or early evening events where its subtle sweetness can be appreciated.
