Dior Homme

Dior names three materials for Dior Homme: Atlas cedar at the top, patchouli at the heart, Haitian vetiver at the base. The house describes a heart of tender woods in which the virility of cedar embraces the warmth of vetiver, lifted by a spicy accord, and files the fragrance among the musky woods.

Atlas cedar

According to Dior, Atlas cedar brings a dry, subtly leathery warmth. Combined with vetiver, it builds a harmony of woods that the house describes as rich in tension and dialogue.

Haitian vetiver and patchouli

Native to India and Indonesia, vetiver also grows in Haiti; its roots carry the scent, and Dior entrusts it with the base of the composition. Patchouli holds the heart, in an accord of tender woods that the house calls sensual.

At the launch

In 2020, the house paired Atlas cedar with the enveloping warmth of cashmere wood, an accord it no longer names today. Iris, which defined the identity of the 2005 fragrance, is absent from the new composition.

What the label declares

After alcohol, fragrance and water, the label declares the allergens limonene, hydroxycitronellal, linalool, hexyl cinnamal, citronellol, coumarin, citral and geraniol, four UV filters and four colorants.
