The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 1994, Tendre Poison Parfum by Dior is crafted by Edouard Fléchier and stands as an intriguing evolution of the iconic Poison line. This fragrance opens with a bright citrus-aromatic accord, featuring bergamot and tangerine that cut through the air like a fresh morning breeze. The heart introduces a lush floral bouquet of rose and tuberose, layered with green notes like galbanum, creating a vibrant yet delicate contrast. As it settles into its woody base, sandalwood and vanilla provide warmth and depth, while musk adds a powdery finish that rounds out the composition.

How to wear it

Apply Tendre Poison Parfum with two sprays to pulse points. The citrus top notes are bright and immediate but fade within an hour, making way for the floral heart that blooms into warmth by midday. It’s best suited for daytime wear when the woody base can evolve naturally without overpowering.
