The 2025 Dior Homme Parfum is a technically competent but divisive release. While some find it pleasant and compliment-worthy, most criticism stems from it replacing the highly-regarded 2014 original rather than issues with the fragrance itself. The community consensus is that as a standalone fragrance it's decent but uninspired, resembling JPG Le Male more than its predecessor, and doesn't justify its premium price point or the loss of the classic.
