Christian Dior: Poison, Eau de Toilette Reviews

I very much agree with other reviewers that this a love or hate fragrance, but I'm in the love it camp. It's not my favourite fragrance - that spot is reserved for Chanel No 5, but it's in my top 3. I didnt choose the fragrance myself, it was a gift from a friend when I admired her perfume and she said have it, I don't like it! It is a ...  Read the complete review

With so many fragrances emerging onto the market nowadays it's easy for one to be lost amongst the crowd. Dior's Poison is not one of those perfumes. In fact it's popularity has led to other fragrances in the range like tendre poison and the more recently released midnight poison. For years it has stood out as one of the perfume industry's staple ...  Read the complete review

This is one of the few perfumes I know of which, rather like Marmite, you either love or you hate. I absolutely hate it! It is such a cloying smell, it almost makes me feel physically sick. And the other thing is that it can smell really nice on one person, but absolutely horrible on me. Other perfumes I have worn, just seem ...  Read the complete review

The reviews on this sight seem to fall in two opposing camps. You either love it or hate it. This propably shows how distinctive the fragrance is. If something was insipid then people would find boring ordinary things to say about it, but this has such diametric opinions that it really must be soemthing different. I really ...  Read the complete review

Some fragrances are eternal and in 1985 Edouard Fletchier created `Poison` for the House of Dior, a potent, powerful and confident perfume that exudes sex appeal. A Poison Eau De Toilette Spray would be top of my Christmas wishlist. The unmistakable fragrance is heady and magical and it has an aroma that is unforgettable. Anyone who ...  Read the complete review

A friend got me a set of mini perfumes for Christmas and this Dior Poison was one of them. I love my fragrances light and breezy and never really go for heavy scents as it tends to smell too overpowering and causes my head to ache. So anyway, I thought I'd put some of this perfume on my wrist and wear it for a few hours, so I could test ...  Read the complete review

Christian Dior Poison is to this day my favourite perfume. My wife has used it for many years and the fragrance never fails to please me. The suttle hint of blackberry comes through and without being overpowering it is a delight to both wearer and those who are close by! A timeless classic that will be hard to beat.

Christian Dior Poison is an interesting scent because it always seems to evoke a strong reaction when its name is mentioned. its a real love it or hate it fragrance and I fall into the hate it category. The perfume has been around since the eighties which is testament to its appeal to the masses but i cant for the life of me comprehend who those ...  Read the complete review

Poison now i would say that it is for maybe an older audience because maybe they can handle the smell of a whole garden. Many of us may remember our nans or grans wearing it and reeking the whole house out which trust me that is possible to do if you start spraying yourself overly. However with just a little spray it can be quite nice for those ...  Read the complete review

Poison is aptly named. The perfume is strong and rich but has a very unpleasant habit of lingering on clothes and furnishings and turning stale. It is suitable for some wearers, particularly if they are isolated in the middle of a playing field, but a definite no-no for others because it really leaves no room for any other senses to work. ...  Read the complete review

Well i have to say this perfume (poison) has to be one of the best perfumes around, i remember when i was younger one of my mums friends always used to wear it i could smell it even when she had left the house the smell seemed to linger forever,and it was the first perfume i ever bought, it is perfect for any occasion and the fragrance lasts all ...  Read the complete review

I don't know why I'm reviewing Christian Dior Poison as I cant think of anything positive to say about it. Arghhhhhh! I guess it reminds me of my Nan and I never did like her much! Maybe that's a big put off for me eh lol It was always one of them things she reeked of when she went to plant a big red smacker on my cheek! It was ...  Read the complete review

Yes a perfume i smelt first in the eighties, but like most things they have a revival. I find this perfume has a lovely aroma without being to powerful. It is still quite expensive but it does last awhile so no need to spray throughout the day. My husband bought me a first bottle of 30ml and it cost around £8.00. I bought one ...  Read the complete review

I cannot counsel you against this stuff enough. I tried "Poison" when I was in the duty free shop in Paris airport a couple of years ago, and I made the silly mistake of spraying it on myself to test it. Sitting on a flight back to the UK was an absolutely awful experience, sitting amongst various poshly dressed ...  Read the complete review

Poison must have been one of the worst ever perfumes created that seemed to be worn by every woman (bar me!!) in the 80's! I have nastaligic memories of this perfume, as a mate of mine practically bathed in the stuff prior to going out, you could smell her half a mile down the road! I do associate this over powering, too lingering ...  Read the complete review
