Created by François Demachy
Fève Délicieuse by Dior is a Oriental Vanilla fragrance for women and men. Fève Délicieuse was launched in 2015. The nose behind this fragrance is François Demachy. Top notes are Lavender, Mint and Bergamot; middle notes are Sour Cherry, Freesia and Jasmine; base notes are Tonka Bean, Vanilla, Cacao Pod, Caramel, Praline, Milk, Benzoin, Sandalwood, Leather and Cedar. Dior launched a new fragrance as part of the exclusive collection La Collection Privée. The new scent is centered on Venezuelan tonka beans, named Fève Délicieuse. It comes out in May 2015. The perfume was created by in-house perfumer Francois Demachy as a sophisticated oriental – gourmand harmony. Tonka bean smells like a mixture between caramel, almonds and cut hay, milky sweet, but also bitter. The composition includes notes of tonka bean, vanilla, caramel, cocoa, pralines and woody accords. The fragrance is available in bottles of 120, 250 and 450 ml Eau de Parfum.
