Dior Addict Eau Delice

I bought this bottle blind in a killer deal on Overstock, less than $20 for a 3.4 oz tester. I crossed my fingers and was delighted when it appeared. I enjoy the sour cranberry and juicy orange opening. Not very many fragrances utilize cranberry and it's a shame because it is very refreshing, especially for summer. The heart is full of a very tropical ylang ylang, the kind that smells almost fruity itself and has a bit of vanilla custard smell. There is a bit of jasmine, but it takes a back seat to the ylang ylang. The jasmine is also quite clean, but avoids being too high pitched. The heart is definitely the most summery and tropical part of this fragrance. As the fragrance dries down, the warm vanilla musk takes over. It makes this the kind of sexy skin scent that I love especially in summer. It smells like sun-warmed skin and is slightly almond-y. My husband loves this bit and will scoot closer to get a whiff. Very alluring. This is a absolute bargain for the price I paid and I would pay more for it. The longevity is very good, at least 8 hours, although a good portion of it is as a skin scent. But it is enough for me to get lovely whiffs all day. I like it because it is a different kind of summer scent, I don't have another one quite like it. Definitely worth a test. It performed quite well in the heat, it was 90 degrees here today and it was never cloying.

Wow, you wanna review on this one. I was in a store today tested 15 fragrances (I know I shouldn't do that) and...nothing. I mean I did like manifesto (pretty nice one and interesting perfume), and many other. But once I asked the shop assistant about Delice, there was no tester - it was used out! Everyone wanted to try out Delice but what I like about Dior, it isn't cheap, ever and I am sure there won't be million of teen girls who would buy it. So I logged into my fragrantica account checked out delice and I told myself I had a blind buy with the dark blue, classic addict so there's no chance I will have any problem with fruity-musky-floral scent from Dior again. So I came into perfumerie again within 30 mins and I bought Dior - and I'm so in love with it although it's an edt. And I forgotten to tell that I hate roses, but in this one, I don't even notice any roses I smell cranberries with some musk, it's not too fresh but it's still fresh enough, sweet and gentle perfume you could wish for in summer.. Dior won't fail, my bf's friend with a good taste told me right away today it's an awesome perfume so you can be sure men around their 30s will compliment you :)

Eau Delice starts off very musky and fruity at the same time, but it's one of the few perfumes I've tried that doesn't have that harsh chemical note if you sniff it right after spraying. Eau Delice just becomes delicious right away. The orange and cranberry notes are the most prominent as first, I usually think that orange in perfume is harsh, but in Eau Delice, the orange note is combined with the other fruity notes which makes it tamer. At about the 10 minute mark, the floral notes took over. I'm a huge fan of Ylang-ylang and jasmine in general, and those notes are so well represented in Eau Delice. The fruity notes are still there, but now the perfume has transitioned into another stage, this one more fresh. At the 15th minute, the musk and vanilla appear, I hardly detect the cedar in this at all. Eau Delice on my skin lasts about 6-7 hours, which is pretty great for an EDT. I think this perfume is perfect for everyday occasions in all seasons, it's floral and fruity but with a a lot of depth from the woody notes. It's a shame it's been discontinued by Dior though, when this came out I thought that it would be a permanent addition since it's really great.

oh my my, almonds, cranberry, musk, vanilla and creamy jasmine! I was afraid of the cerisier note, since It turns to be so chemical... always, except in L'Occitane frags, everywhere else smells synthetic. The cranberry smells soooo goood, yum! I'm sure I've sniffed this before somewhere, I don't remember where so it mustn't been important. Now this... thing, it's sweet and bitter, creamy and soft, at the same time has an amazing sillage and longevity, it just lasts and lasts and laaaasts, unless you have your dude stuck to your neck like flies on poop, believe me, I stopped using this because the boyfriend went batshit crazy over it. It smells chic, it's cute and easy to wear, the scent is very pleasant and attractive, IMO all age appropiate (17 & up)- Hey, my grams loves this stuff.

I love this perfume. Fruity almond woody vanilla easily wearable by women in their late 20's and 30's....YUMM...perfect for hot summer weather, works very well with little sweat - body chemistry our body produces on arms, neck. I would not wear it in Winter or Fall because it will not develope the way it should in colder weather. I think it is enough to say I started off with 50 ml bottle and now I ordered 100 ml :))) As Gucci Eau De Parfum II is discontinued I am very happy that I have another signature summer scent none of those on the market could beat so far. If you don't like sweet cream fruity fragrances then this one is definitely not one for you. I am not into green fragrances so if you like those very light, fresh cintrusy ones switch next.
