Christian Dior: Miss Dior, Eau de Toilette

Miss Dior is a classic fragrance that has been around since the 1940s. it was apparently the first perfume that the famous Coco Chanel ever brought out. Dior is a name synonymous with glamour and quality perfumes, and I think that's why I ended up even trying this perfume. Having heard of Chanel no 5 even as a child from my granny, when I first started wearing perfume, I immediately tried that one first. That is a very strong and heady perfume and all wrong on a teenage girl (at least I thought so) and so I tried others in the Dior range. I happed upon Miss Dior, and given the name I suppose I vaguely assumed it would be for younger people, and bought it. ...  Read the complete review

Christian Dior is a classic perfume maker. Traditional and elegant, these perfumes are globally popular. Miss Dior is Christian Dior's best release (my opinion) into the fragrance world. This is simply i believe a faultless fragrance and one i wear all the time Miss Dior is like marmite and is a fragrance a person will or won't like I happen to be one of them. I live by trying different perfumes and usually change what i am wearing regularly. This however is a staple perfume of mine as it is difference. The scent of Miss Dior is neither floral or zesty and is very hard to describe. I could use the words citrus with less zest. This is what is so ...  Read the complete review

I am divided in my opionon of Miss Dior. On the one hand it evokes the era of Audrey Hepburn; glamour and sophistication. It's a debutante perfume which is very individual and classic. On the other hand, I tend to mostly use it as a room spray - and very good it is too - and when my friend came over she asked if the smell was Charlie. Hardly the most glowing recommendation. I'm not too sure why I don't tend to wear it, I guess I just find it a bit over-powering, too strong for the day, and I guess a bit sweet for the evening. So now for some facts, Miss Dior is the first fragrance released by Christian Dior back in 1947, and it has ...  Read the complete review

A classic fagrance,whenever I catch its fragrance it is always,seemingly,on an elegant well,dressd.well heeled lady.....the perfume therefore speaks for itself and the image and fragrance it portrays is an image which I,and my friends like to emulate.....I suppose Iassociateit more with the middle-aged lady than the younger set as it is so well established.nevertheless,it is more a statement of a personality than age.For me it has a lemony air,a little seductive,and one which I would personally use more in the evening. As a classic over many years it is interesting that it is still to the forefront of every cosmetic counter, of every large store,in the ...  Read the complete review

How can one dscribe Miss Dior. It is one of those perfumes that doesn't smell 'scenty'. It isn't flowery, it isn't oriental, it isn'n green or lemony. Miss Dior is simply a fragrance that you will either love or hate. It's been around however since the mid 40's so there are plenty of women the world over who do like the smell of it. I happen to be one of them. As a woman who only uses 4 perfumes (Miss Dior, Diorissimo, Madame Rochas and Femme) I have to say at a push that this one is my favourite - simply because of it's uniqueness. The smell, without trying to put you off is remaniscent of sueade or leather with a ...  Read the complete review
