This is definitely one of the more interesting Dior scents,as it has a very unique smell compared to other perfumes on the market. With the bottle I have, I haven't checked whether this is one of the newer formulations or one of the originals. Though, this is one of the few scents where I have not read a lot of negative buzz around the reformulation.
In terms of smell, the dominant notes are rose and sandalwood. A number of reviews talk about the gourmand 'baking' like scent they get from this. I personally do not notice any vanilla or other food-type notes.
This fragrance is beautiful and iconic but very strong. Its definitely not for the faint hearted or those with a sensitive nose, and I feel like very few people can pull it off! It is a one spray wonder and will last a LONG time. Its beautiful and creamy but also very VERY floral. Think of it almost as the 'Gucci rush' of the 'Dior' fragrance house, but a lot more intense. Pros: Ticks the long last box. Will last forever as a little goes a long way. Cons: very very strong.. Too over powering for a lot of people and not good if your sensitive very strong scents. I rate it a 3/5 overall.
Tips: Less is more.. Do not over do this one.. You will be smelt a mile away haha!
