The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2018 by Dior, The Cachemire is a creation by perfumer François Demachy that marries the freshness of citrus and green notes with the warmth of woody and musky accords. The composition opens with petitgrain, bergamot, lemon, and bitter orange, providing an immediate sense of crispness and brightness. As it evolves, hedione, honeysuckle, magnolia, black currant, rose, and mate offer a floral heart that remains delicate yet vibrant. The base notes of iso e super, musk, smoke, and orris create a warm, enveloping finish that feels like the soft embrace of a cashmere shawl.
Apply The Cachemire in thin layers for a more nuanced experience. It blooms beautifully over time, so waiting an hour before reapplying allows you to appreciate its full evolution from top notes to base accords.

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.”
