Can Francis Dior?
Some of my favorite scents are made by Francis K.: Le Male, Amyris Extrait, Masculin Pluriel, Silk Oud .. and many more, so the man can do skilled perfumery without any doubt.
Since he came to Dior, the expectations were high and Dior Homme Parfum was expected by everbody like Santa Clause.
I got mine, excited and with high hopes that all the "nay" sayers are wrong, without reading any review in advance, to not influence my review.
The opening is so designer like, that I even thought I got anosmic and can´t sense the great smell, otherwise. It has a boost of Iris, with some woody ambery following.. then it goes very fast into some, mix of sweet notes. It is sickly sweet, in line with any other medium release from YSL, Paco Rabanne or Jean Paul Gaultier.
I forgot to mention in my video, but how this smells and how MFK scents smell, it seems like it´s not the same perfumer behind the creations. Can it be that F.K. is doing the Thierry Wasser style role by Christian Dior and some ghost intern at Dior is given a chance to create.
The scent is pleasant, but Le Male Le Parfum, Armani Code or any other sweet designer smells better than this one and costs the half.
Given that we are worldwide in a new financial crysis .. I have no idea how a prestige company like Dior is risking one of their best cash-cows in this manner. I think Francis can Dior, but the company is not allowing him to get as creative as he was for MFK, only they know why.
