Diorissimo Eau de Parfum is the reinterpretation, dated 2009 by the house, of the lily of the valley that Edmond Roudnitska composed for Christian Dior in 1956. François Demachy made it denser than the original eau de toilette, enriched with jasmine and rose absolutes around the couturier’s lucky flower. Bergamot and green notes open it; sandalwood and civet ground it.
The bottle of Les Créations de Monsieur Dior: a silver cord tied around the neck and the name in calligraphy within the house oval.
For Les Créations de Monsieur Dior, the house describes a heritage bottle with a silver cord tied around its neck, the fragrance name written in English calligraphy within Dior’s emblematic oval.
Osmoz describes the first bottle of 1956, signed by Baccarat: a faceted crystal topped with a gilded bronze stopper shaped like a bouquet of flowers, inspired by a baroque chandelier in the avenue Montaigne boutique.
Michel Roudnitska warned in 2011 that the eau de toilette and the eau de parfum could hardly be told apart by their packaging alone, and advised checking the concentration before buying.
