Gris Dior, launched by Dior in 2017 and crafted by François Demachy, is a fragrance that pays homage to the iconic Gris Dior color and celebrates the brand's 70th anniversary. The composition opens with fresh citrus notes that give way to a warm and earthy heart of rose and patchouli, anchored by a mossy and spicy base of amber and woody accords. This scent is both lasting and contemporary, reflecting the elegance and heritage of Dior.

Application Tips
Apply this fragrance sparingly to let the layers unfold gradually. The citrus top notes are bright but fleeting, while the mossy base slowly reveals its depth over time. Ideal for a cool evening when you want a scent that evolves throughout the night.
