Miss Dior Eau de Toilette is the lightest version in the Miss Dior line, recomposed by François Demachy in early 2019. The house describes it as a floral whirlwind: blood orange and mandarin at the top, a heart of Grasse rose, jasmine and a lily of the valley accord, a clear patchouli in the base. It also comes as a roller-pearl, a portable ball-tipped bottle.
Two signed readings: Angela van Rose finds the 2019 version fresh, romantic and well balanced, with no dominant note; Grace Lindsay, the lightest and freshest of the Miss Dior fragrances, youthful and fun.
Olfastory’s review
Angela van Rose
Angela van Rose published her review on February 1, 2019, shortly before the release. She sees a fresh, modern, easy-to-wear fragrance in which the sensuality of roses and jasmine is balanced by a touch of citrus; blood orange and mandarin quickly open onto the flowers.
On her skin, the fragrance turns romantic and “girly,” without fragility: well balanced, with no dominant note, the barely perceptible patchouli leaving a soft, sweet depth. Attached to the old version, she admits she would choose it without hesitation if she had to decide.
Grace Lindsay, Who What Wear
For Grace Lindsay, deputy beauty editor at Who What Wear UK, the eau de toilette is the lightest, freshest and most delicate of the Miss Dior fragrances. It was the first Miss Dior she ever owned, and she remains tied to it by a kind of nostalgia.
She singles out the tangy opening of blood orange and mandarin, through which a sweet, fresh lily of the valley breaks. She finds it youthful and fun, says she has never met anyone it fails to please, and suggests thinking of it as the eau de parfum’s younger sister.
