Miss Dior (2012)
feminine
Created by François Demachy
Miss Dior (2012) by Dior is a Chypre Floral fragrance for women. Miss Dior (2012) was launched in 2012. The nose behind this fragrance is François Demachy. Top note is Italian Mandarin; middle notes are Rose and Egyptian Jasmine; base notes are Patchouli and Musk. Sometime during 2012 the house of Dior renamed its already reformulated Miss Dior Cherie perfume line (the original Miss Dior Cherie was launched in 2005, the new version came out 2011, and there are also numerous other editions made on the same theme) as Miss Dior (which does not have any similarity with the original Miss Dior edition from 1947). The fragrance is created for an “elegant and spirited young woman in love.” Naturally romantic, Miss Dior inspires an intensive and playful love. She personifies the spontaneous joie de vivre of today’s young women. The fragrance represents freedom and seduction, characterized by an instant and captivating charm. The composition is a chypre that develops step by step. It glides from the sharp charm of a fresh, fruity, citrus prelude into blossoming floral notes, then on to the noble elegance of patchouli, before finally concluding with musk, the last trace of memory. Top notes Italian mandarin. Heart: Egyptian jasmine absolute and rose. Base: patchouli and musk. It is available as 50 and 100 ml eau de Parfum.
