Vanilla Diorama

Christian Dior presents Vanilla Diorama in 2021, as an Eau de Parfum. The formula bears the double signature of François Demachy and Julien Dugourd. It starts from a dessert served at the restaurant Chez Maxim's.

The house claims this dessert from Chez Maxim's as the starting point of the accord. Vanilla Diorama is offered in sizes of 40, 50, 100 and 200 ml.

Spicy top

Pepper opens the composition with a spicy and dry touch, nuanced with an herbaceous accent. This spice drawn from the berries of Piper nigrum owes its vivacity to molecules such as pinene and caryophyllene, which lend it an arid, almost green tonality.

Heart of cocoa and rum

Cocoa brings a chocolate note marked by bitterness and a balsamic roundness. Rum reads through nuances of cinnamon, ginger and vanilla. Cardamom, the spice of Elettaria's green pods, adds a spicy touch of great freshness.

Vanilla and woody base

Vanilla here is sweet, spicy and warm, in the image of the fermented and dried pod from which its aroma is extracted. Sandalwood offers a velvety and warm wood. Patchouli, a distilled leaf from Asia, anchors the whole with an earthy, damp material with camphoraceous undertones.

Gourmand family

Vanilla Diorama ranks among gourmands, those compositions that borrow their accords from confectionery and desserts. Cocoa, vanilla and rum carry this edible register here, which the spices and the woods of sandalwood and patchouli keep at a distance from simple sugar.
