Dior Les Extraits: Miss Dior, Miss Dior Original, Diorissimo, J'Adore, Poison parfum editions

This isn't exactly new news, but I shamelessly borrowed the photo from Fragrantica because the bottles are so perfect in their extrait de parfum form that they needed to show off a bit for flacon fanatics who hide in the confines of the Perfume Shrine.

The five fragrances available as perfume extract are housed in extraordinary flacons created in Saint-Jean-de-Braye, France, retaining the characteristic shape that made them famous and gaining additional decoration. All five editions (Miss Dior Le Parfum, Miss Dior extrait de parfum Original, Diorissimo parfum, Poison parfum and J'Adore parfum) are available as 0.5 oz (15 ml) priced at $175.

The composition is re-arranged and overseen by in-house perfumer Francois Demachy, which means that fans of Miss Dior Le Parfum in particular should give a side by side comparison between the recent (which won many fans) with the all too recent and let us know what they think. It could means good news for both Diorissimo and Miss Dior Original which were attenuated in their last iteration in extrait de parfum. We'll see.

    I'm not a bottle appreciator but this is a great development. It's great to see Miss Dior - the original - included. Shows that Dior does seem to care a little bit about this old classic.

  2. AM,

    this is what I thought as well. The fact that they're lining it up alongside the rest of them is promising.
    I was very much afraid they'd do away with it at some point! :-/ On the other hand, there is something being prepared (I'm sworn to secrecy) that shows they consider their "patrimoine" as the most valuable thing they have, so…. ;-) :)
