The story behind the bottle.
Poison Eau de Cologne, created by Edouard Fléchier for Dior in 1985, is an Oriental Floral fragrance that reimagines the classic cologne structure with a lush and warm twist. The opening notes of plum and wild berries create a sweet yet vibrant freshness, which then transitions into a heart of coriander, palisander rosewood, and anise — adding layers of warmth and spiciness. This composition is anchored by a rich base of tuberose, incense, white honey, opoponax, cinnamon, and sandalwood, resulting in a scent that feels both modern and lasting.
This fragrance is best applied lightly — the initial sweetness fades quickly, making room for the warm and woody base. It’s perfect for evenings or cooler weather when you want a scent that feels both comforting and sophisticated.
