Dior presented Miss Dior Le Parfum in September 2012, in its boutiques and department stores. Victoria Frolova, on Bois de Jasmin, saw it as the parfum version of the former Miss Dior Chérie, renamed Miss Dior, while the 1947 original became Miss Dior Originale.

The house describes it as an oriental chypre for evening rendezvous, voluptuous and sensual, seeking to exalt an extreme femininity by emphasizing the chypre accords of Miss Dior. Highly concentrated, it aims for a balance between languid smoothness and elegant sophistication.

François Demachy says he wanted to bring something precious and luminous to it, like an oriental jewel or the shimmer of moiré fabric. Dior sold it in 40 and 75 ml sprays, and Osmoz mentions a refillable travel spray.

What critics say

Eddie Bulliqi (2024) considers Le Parfum the richest and most mysterious of the Miss Dior fragrances: a nocturnal rose varnished with amber, patchouli and gourmand notes.
