Higher Energy
Higher Energy appeared in 2003, two years after Higher, opening on grapefruit and juniper berries. A base of vetiver and white musks makes it drier and more resinous than its predecessor. The juice is among the thirteen Dioriginals brought back by Francis Kurkdjian and put back on sale on October 1, 2026.

Two years after Higher, Dior draws from it a livelier masculine, opening on grapefruit and juniper berry.
The 2003 extension
Dior released Higher Energy in 2003, the year of Chris 1947. The name takes up that of the 2001 masculine and extends its line, with a more overtly citrus opening.
The accord reads in three stages: grapefruit and juniper for the top, nutmeg and incense for the heart, vetiver and white musks for the base.
The Dioriginals, October 1, 2026
Francis Kurkdjian brought back thirteen of the house's juices, Higher Energy among them, after four years of work. Each one returns in the Ovale bottle and replaces on shelf what had been sold there.
The classification adopted holds to two headings. Higher Energy closes the one for Dior in Paris, bounded by 1979 and 2003, which makes it the most recent of the masculines in the series.
