The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 1947 by Jean Carles and later revisited by François Demachy, Miss Dior Original is a lasting masterpiece that opens with the sharp, green whisper of galbanum before blooming into a lush heart of dewy rose and creamy jasmine. The base settles into a sophisticated embrace of oakmoss and patchouli, creating a fragrance that feels both ethereal and grounded—like stepping into a Parisian garden at dusk, where romance and refinement intertwine.
Apply Miss Dior Original to your pulse points for a long-lasting effect. The fragrance's moderate sillage means it will stay close to your skin throughout the day, making it perfect for daytime wear or an evening out where you want to feel subtle yet refined.

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.”
