Vanilla Diorama by Dior, launched in 2021 and crafted by François Demachy, is an Oriental Vanilla fragrance that weaves together warm spices with rich vanilla notes. The top opens with bright citrus and pink pepper, creating a lively contrast against the heart of rum and cacao. This composition then settles into a base of bourbon vanilla, sandalwood, and patchouli, offering a comforting warmth that feels both familiar and luxurious.

Application Tips
Apply Vanilla Diorama with two sprays — it blooms gradually over time. The citrus top notes are fleeting but vibrant, while the rich base notes of vanilla and wood develop slowly for a lasting warmth that feels close to skin.
