Christian Dior Dune Eau De Toilette Spray for Her 30ml

Product Information

An indefinable pleasant, light yet deep, sweet and fresh, with a powdery touch and a slightly woody accord. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. On me, this is a sandalwood and rosewood explosion with an afterthought of ylang-ylang and aldehydes.

The initial blast is sharp, bitter even, like sniffing a ball of dry herbs with mineral salts that stays with you till the end. It smells like quiet beach in cool weather, maybe after rain or early morning when it is foggy and moist. Soft spicy notes become more prominent as it develops, enhancing the dry woodiness and soft florals to perfection.But after this weird smell it grows on skin and becomes something wonderful, cozy floral and elegant without being too much. The reformulation has just a slight hint of oakmoss, but it definitely doesn't dominate the fragrance. And the longevity is excellent for an EDT–it was a good eight hours before it finally became a skinscent. There is no specific single loud note, rather many notes keep coming up and over to keep the charm throughout. My creepy goblin heart is dreadfully influenced by this sort of hyperbole and after reading that over a decade ago… I had purchased a bottle within milliseconds.

Since they can no longer produce the original formulation, it’s better to just let it go than do it half way.

Perhaps Hermes Eau de Merveilles has the similar character, although those two smell quite different. Dune, a mass-market designer scent from the 1990s, exceeds many of today's niche/private line collections. As if sand crystals and salt were carried on the wind to the hand of a genie, crushed into a fine powder and bottled. We are in compliance with the Trademarks Act 1994 and all other applicable UK legislation regarding comparative advertising. The film rewinds backwards to put the scattered sand back in place, but entropy always wins in the end.

peut être l'ai rattaché à un évènement négatif de ma vie mais je l'ai en horreur, tenue et sillage très forts, parfum lourd, peut incommoder(j'avais la version des années 2000). The younger sister of Scheherazade of One Thousand and One Nights, whose name was Dunyazad, fits the mood here - something I could imagine being worn in The Mummy (1999), or Sahara (2005).You are entitled to your opinion; however, I do not agree with the statements made in regard to the micro-labeling of genders. That said, I have begun to actively collect bottles of the original formulation, which is definitely my favorite man made scent! It then moves towards stumbling upon the ruins of a stone building there, with old books or manuscripts, probably due to the oakmoss and patchoili base over the woods. This lasts all day long and just dries down beautifully rosewood/sandalwood and ambery, definitely detect the benzoin as well. I hate to say it, but my God, why is everyone putting so much patchouli into every summer perfume these days?

It has a really comforting aroma, it gives off the personality of a classy person from another time who smoked nice smelling cigars and threw extravagant parties, maybe a flapper from the 20s haha. The dense, heavy base of oakmoss and sandalwood have great longevity on skin, and seem to last eternally on fabric. The masculine woody aftershavey effect of both is like the scent that lingers from his Old Spice hugs. It's a dry, warm scent that I enjoy in all kinds of weather– heat amplifies the hazy desert warmth, whereas on cold days it feels cozy and soft.Although a mildly soapy suntan lotion vibe is present at first, the scent warms and settles in quickly. A big, spicy-woody dry oriental that feels original, Dune is an aptly-named moody take on a beachy scent.
