Ambery Rose Beauty

Christian Dior's recent reformulations and nonsensical name changes have almost pushed me to boiling point in the last few years. It almost got to the stage that I was willing to boycott the brand altogether. They're lucky that I happened to be in a good mood while strolling past the Dior counter a few weeks ago, and seeing that my spirits were high, a sales assistant invited me to test the new Miss Dior Le Parfum.

I'm happy to announce that this Le Parfum version smells nothing like the insipid, reformulated mess that is Miss Dior (Cherie) EDP. This fragrance is actually quite impressive, almost making up for all Dior's previous mishaps.

Miss Dior Le Parfum opens with a rich blend of sweet mandarin orange and oily rose. The vanilla, amber and patchouli heart is not far behind, and tends to kick in a few minutes into the scent's development.

It's quite an intense fragrance, which is to be expected seeing that it comes in a parfum concentration. My guess is that this flanker is aimed to appeal to those who mourn the loss of the original 2005 Miss Dior Cherie.

I wouldn't describe it as a gourmand, although it is quite sweet. The vanilla accord is much more pronounced in this fragrance than it has been in previous versions. Towards the drydown, it actually begins to smell quite smoky and sensual.

If I were to choose any of the Miss Dior fragrances, Le Parfum would be my pick. The longevity and sillage are superb, as is the composition. Bit by bit, I am starting to forgive Dior for all his prior offences.

Miss Dior 3.0 becomes sensual

Everybody knows that the original Miss Dior created in 1947 by the famous couturier wasn't at all like this.
you can find again the true spirit of the new Look in the fragrance called "Miss Dior l'original".
Anyway, times change and women too. Girls of all ages are searching for something more casual or romantic but with a little bit of irony and (why no?) a sexy touch. so, with new millennium was born Miss Dior XChérie which became Miss Dior tout court. The new bouquet is the symbol of the modern woman 3.0 and is intense, gourmand, sensual but romantic too.
I t've just tested this fragrance and , although I adore the original formula, I must confess that I fell immediately in love with it!
At the opening I smelled a light mandarin note mixed to a very romantic rose, but it's the base which conquires me and stays on my skin for hours : a wonderful and warm accord of amber, patchouli, vibrant and powerful but not too earthy, and a delicious sweet vanilla.
The sillage of this scent is very strong, but the ingredients are masterfully balanced and the fragrance doesn't result too intoxicating or heavy and you can wear it by day too in the cold season .
Very pretty the bottle, inspirated to the original one,simple and refined, but with the romantic touch of a silver bow. I realized that I have two souls: the vintage one and another , more contemporary, sensual and ironic which could be perfectly represented by this new scent. Another new love is born!

Grown up Cherie

Rich, sultry, sexy. It's like the older sister of the famous Miss Dior Cherie. It's deeper and warmer, though still playful.
Amber and rose take center stage while the rest of the notes mingle in the background. Everything is in perfect harmony here.

If you've outgrown Miss Dior Cherie or just want a "better version" than try out Miss Dior Le Parfum.

Eat tangerine and then go out

Hello folks, welcome again to a new fragrance commentary from me. Today I'm going to describe Miss Dior Le Parfum of 2012. Well, are you interested in the comment or the scent? Sure you are... but if I had described an alien scent, nobody would read it or want to have it, bah! Alien is far better than it has the reputation here with you dumb snoopers, but okay, I'm not upset. On the other hand, you shouldn't like the Miss Dior fragrances anymore, because they are or were used by so many people? Yes ha ha, you know that I am right, so go test aliens again and radiate deliciously :D

But good, I didn't mean to get upset. Speaking of delicious, this scent here is of course also quite beautiful, really feminine, maybe just not quite as girlie, because the patchouli here lets the scent radiate a little more mature, and no, don't worry, by mature I don't mean women over 100 years, but that it can also be used by women who are no longer 20, or 30, or 40 ... oh, to be on the safe side, let's just say all over 20 :D

So, I'll come to the description of the fragrance before I say anything else wrong here, eh he he.

The smell:

The fragrance starts with a nice mix of amber and rose, followed by patchouli. Unfortunately, the mandarins are extremely weak and soon you can hardly make them out, but with the powdery aura of the fragrance they scented like a delicious mandarin cake with icing sugar on top :)
The roses also soon fade away considerably, but the fragrance remains flowery-sweetish. I'd even go for jasmine, but it's not listed here, well, maybe it's the amber or a mix of all the scents that makes me think of jasmine.
Later they do return roses again, I find that for a while you can even smell them out most clearly. Of course the scent remains sweetish.
To the base the roses go down again a little bit, now the patchouli comes out a little more clearly. The sweetish notes now smell like a mix of amber, jasmine and some vanilla, and the fragrance is also nice and powdery. All in all a very nice and warm scent.

The Sillage and the durability:

The Sillage is good, not room filling, but at least at a few meters it smells good, especially at the beginning. But even after that it still has a decent amount of sillage, so you will be able to smell it for quite a while. The shelf life is extremely good, the scent smells from morning to evening (of course with decreasing intensity, but that's the same with every scent), and at the sprayed place you can still smell a little bit the next morning.

The bottle! The bottle is rectangular or cuboid and has the usual silver bow as the "trademark" of the Miss Dior fragrances on it. This time the bow is not polished but patterned. Like all Miss Dior flacons, this bottle looks very chic.

Conclusion:

Okay, wow, this smell is amazing. Very feminine, very nicely scented, and even delicious. Well well, it would have been a tickle nicer if you could have smelled the tangerine more clearly (and a bit longer) in the top note, but well, there you go. In any case, Miss Dior Le Parfum is a wonderful fragrance that comes across elegantly and is especially suitable for going out, best in autumn and winter, as it also has a good sillage and shelf life.

I think you ladies smell just as wonderful with this fragrance as for example with the alien scents, but this comparison is of no use to you, because you don't know anymore how the aliens and especially the many flanks of them smell, because you don't touch these scents, you crazy ignorants, you :D
But ok, then use this scent, and yes, older people can use it too,... oops, I meant everyone over 20 who thinks that Alien is a bit too girly. But I don't know if this scent is still sold, I just hope for you :)

And that's it. Forgive my constant alien comparisons with the scent, but somehow I have to make you look at the aliens again, he he he he. So see you, have a nice evening and see you next time :)
