Dior Homme Parfum 2025

When a brand tries to move forward, sometimes the only honest path is to return to its own masterpiece and take it apart. Dior Homme Parfum 2025 feels like that kind of act. Not nostalgia, not fan service, but a controlled demolition and rebuild. Dior owes us nothing, and neither does Kurkdjian. It may not be the perfume everyone wanted, but it is absolutely a perfume that understands what Dior Homme is supposed to mean. The opening is a remarkably pure iris, clean and lucid, but not innocent. There is a brief cosmetic softness, then a rooty seriousness underneath, the kind of iris that suggests both petals and earth. Soon the fragrance pulls you indoors. Ambery woods rise like warm light against aged timber, smooth and quietly carnal, as if the whole composition has been polished rather than sweetened. I picture a small café with amber lighting and wood that has lived a long life. You sit down after a hard day, hands freshly washed, skin calm again. You order something precise, indulgent, and comforting: a burnished vanilla custard tart, caramelized on top, creamy in the center, not too sweet. The perfume behaves the same way. Elegant, warm, controlled. A sensual dessert made with discipline. This is not a loud parfum. It is a finished one. It wears beautifully as a couple’s scent, because it is not trying to perform masculinity or femininity. It is simply iris and amber rendered as modern luxury: strength held in tenderness, and tenderness given structure. It may initially register as familiar, even generic, but that familiarity is deliberate rather than accidental. This is familiarity executed with intent, a demonstration of how refinement, balance, and proportion elevate convention. If it is generic, it is so at a level of quality that surpasses the vast majority of fragrances operating within that space.

-Francis Kurkdijan reflecting on his early career at JPG. "Maybe I’m not an artist because I believe being a perfumer to create perfume to wear is not being an artist, but at least you have an opinion and you’re surrounded by so many people who tell you what to do. You are so directed, you are so channelled, at the end you are a guy or a girl who just mixes things to please the tastes of someone else, which is not the taste of the consumer, it’s the taste of the marketing director or the CEO of something, whatever. My goal was to interact with creative people and to translate what they had in mind and market that." 2019 Article Maybe this helps the people below understand a little better about the goings on within a large design house. Some people LITERALLY think Francis is an evil mastermind actively trying to destroy Dior Homme. Laughable. He is trying to put his spin on THE BRIEF given to him from Dior. Then they smell it and talk about changes and he goes back until they all approve. Look what people said initially about DIOR 2020: This is just pure cheap generic garbage. It feels as though LVMH have given François Demachy a mandate to make a bunch of generic and crappy bestsellers whilst burying his reputation as an artist in the ground. "Sauvage was the first one. It is truly horrid. A mess of notes that are flying in all directions, without any of them coming together into a cohesive whole. And it borrowed its name from the Dior classic Eau Sauvage, without bearing any resemblance to it" "Dior Homme" 2020 is not Dior Homme. It is cheap and nasty, bland, and thoroughly commercial in mind. "Dior should be ashamed that they're turning their reputation into such trashy muck."

Don’t listen to what anyone says. Dior Homme Parfum 2025 is an absolute masterpiece, and I genuinely consider it my favorite of all time. The smell is so rich and unique I am actually addicted to it, and every time I smell it I’m still blown away. I have never smelt the 2014 formulation and I’m sure it’s also amazing, but let me put it this way: the 2025 Parfum has set the bar so high, it’s hard to conceive something better than it. The way I see it, we should appreciate the fragrance for what it is, not compare it to an icon from a bygone era. It’s disrespectful to perfumery as an art to stick MFK’s 2025 masterpiece under another masterpiece’s shadow. To consider the 2025 bad because it is different from the 2014 is biasedness at its worst. In terms of actually describing this scent: it’s indescribable. Partially cuz idk how to describe notes, but also because it is an overwhelming, mind blowing olfactory experience that you have to experience yourself. Reading about the smell won’t do Dior Homme Parfum 2025 justice. It is such a complex scent that on my first smell, I didn’t like it. But after subsequent smells, the best way I can describe it is olfactory nicotine. Absolutely addicting, in the best way. Don’t smoke btw. Generally, I will say it smells, explosive, heavy, rich, old money. This is what a Viking Warrior King would wear. I would go as far to say that non-fragrance lovers might hate you for wearing such a loud scent. But it is just THAT GOOD. I can’t glaze ts enough. Please just do it the honor of trying it once or twice, you won’t regret it. And for the love of God, don’t listen to the haters. They are dumb.

Dior Homme Parfum is constructed around a highly concentrated iris–woody–balsamic framework where material density and structural cohesion dominate over accessibility. The opening is compact and austere: iris in its rooty, slightly earthy facet, dry rather than cosmetic, with very limited sweetness and a compressed diffusion profile. The first phase can feel closed, almost severe, due to the high concentration and low volatility of the core materials. As the composition stabilizes, the architecture becomes clearer. The iris remains central but shifts from powder-dry to smoother and more integrated. Dark woods provide structure and depth, while a balsamic–amber facet adds warmth and persistence without softening the overall austerity. The slightly “leathery” impression often perceived is textural rather than literal — a byproduct of dense iris interacting with woody and balsamic materials, not an explicit leather accord. Diffusion is controlled and progressive. Rather than expanding sharply, the fragrance slowly decompresses, gaining roundness while preserving its dense core. The evolution is driven by textural softening rather than contrast. Longevity is outstanding, with strong material persistence and minimal volatility loss over time. From a technical standpoint, the strength of Dior Homme Parfum lies in concentration, balance, and textural precision. Its main barrier remains the opening: dry, compact, and initially austere. Once the structure unfolds, it reveals one of the most refined and architecturally coherent iris compositions in modern perfumery — dense, elegant, and technically exceptional.

I tried this recently when buying a bottle of Dior Sport which is my go to formal Florida hot frag. Others flrmal are Chanel EDT/EDP, Armaf Aventus clone, AQD profumo, Then for "heavier & Sweet but masculine ( Guilty Parfum, Defy EDP, Choo Man blue, Dylan Blue, Carbon, Dior 2020 (sports better imo. casual I go Polo Blue, Gucci Black/green, Versace Pour Homme, King EDP & EDT, Ferrigammo Aqua Ezzenzielle So this is my taste. I never liked Prada Llhomme Or Lea' but love all Lunna Rossa line. I picked up Givenchy Boise & sold, Code PARFUM (similar to this but way sweeter & can be closing, vanilla/Irish is off at times, Code EDT is fine. Want Iris & a cologne that you enjoy yourself every time you catch a whiff for 8-12 hours. Drydown is phenomenal and its so well done compared to Le Male or Givenchy etc ..Its Diors best...Its more mainstream than 2011 I was neutral with...This is a 3 spray max. First 45 min can be odd at times with skin cause Iris doesnt blend right until 60 min. After that its a frag that has 5-6 cycles. Females can rock for sure, kind of like Sauvauge, My GF smells great & gets compliments 10x I would.. This is only used when you have purpose for 8 hours. Its to good to waste. Worth $180 . 2 sprays. 2 sprays of Code chokes you & gone 3 hours, Prada to Feminine imo. Code to sweet. Add Iris to Chanel extreme. My point...This is not "like" the.m Others. Its better. Sure, Smells "like" in some notes but this is pure quality. period. Im not a name brand guy. I wear CK free to work, Hugo Boss, Lacoste, Varvatos, Polo,, Eternities, Etc....This is value....

As someone who's never smelled the famed OG version, I have no reference to compare this fragrance to and can only judge it as a scent by itself. Upon smelling this recently, it has become my favorite fragrance of all time. On my skin it can only be described as both nutty and warm, inviting yet penetrating at the same time. The warmth of this fragrance projects both confident masculinity and coziness in a way that keeps me sniffing my hand for more throughout the day. Perhaps this is the mass-appealing designer factor kicking in, but I cannot deny that they have done a wonderful job in creating a beautiful, practical must-have scent for the cooler days. At the edges of its sillage I pick up a slightly spicy nuttiness, and smelling my skin up-close allows me to capture a faint, warm sweetness reminiscent of tonka bean or vanilla. I can see myself wearing this to a date, a business meeting, and even around the house just so I can keep catching whiffs of it as the day goes on. To me the iris note does not remind me of makeup or lipstick, although this may be due to my lack of association with such products. The projection and longevity are decent as well, comparable to similar warm winter fragrances. Unlike most gourmands and other winter fragrances, however, this composition is neither thick nor excessively sweet (although it does have a nutty, woody sweetness). A perfect men's purchase for the winter seasons, and the only downside is the high price point.

Forget what the influencers are saying — Dior Homme Parfum 2025 deserves to be judged on its own merits. Despite the noise around its name change and price, this is an exceptional composition from Francis Kurkdjian and easily one of the most wearable releases from Dior in recent years. From the opening to the final dry-down, the fragrance maintains a smooth, cohesive character. The iris is still present, not as dense or waxy as the original DHP, but elegant and modern. As it develops, a warm amber accord steps forward, adding depth without becoming heavy. The base settles into a well-polished patchouli that gives the scent its lasting power and sophistication. Yes, it shares some familiarity with Le Male Elixir Absolu, but Dior Homme Parfum 2025 is the safer, more compliment-friendly option. If you're looking for something that performs well, smells expensive, and gets noticed in a positive way, this is a great pick. However, if you’re someone who expects an artistic statement or a “masterpiece” in the vein of the OG Dior Homme Parfum (which I also own), you might feel this release leans more toward mainstream refinement than niche creativity. And that’s okay — it simply aims at a different audience. Overall, Dior Homme Parfum 2025 is a beautifully crafted, mass-appealing fragrance with unmistakable Dior quality. Not the avant-garde character of the original, but a modern, highly wearable evolution that stands strong on its own.

Dior is one of the biggest luxury houses in the world. Full stop. This isn’t a niche lab cooking up 500 bottles for a Reddit thread to argue over. Dior doesn’t have the time—or the incentive—to cater to endless whining about leather, rose, and oud being taken away from the old Dior Homme Parfum. Their job is to create something globally appealing, wearable, and commercially viable. And that’s exactly what they did. Let’s be honest: if this fragrance dropped under a different name, 90% of the outrage would vanish overnight. The anger has almost nothing to do with how it smells and everything to do with nostalgia and entitlement tied to the name. Smell it in isolation, and it’s smooth, refined, modern, and undeniably high quality. It smells good. Period. What’s actually sad is watching grown men spiral into keyboard-warrior mode over a designer fragrance evolving. Imagine your girlfriend watching you type a five-paragraph meltdown because Dior didn’t consult the “frag community” before reformulating. Even worse—imagine your great-grandfather looking down at you like “I lived through war and rationing, and you’re distraught because your favorite cologne changed?” Dior Homme Parfum 2025 isn’t trying to be a museum exhibit. It’s trying to move forward. And whether people like it or not, Dior will continue doing what massive luxury brands do best: set trends, sell bottles, and ignore the noise.

I don’t usually enjoy lipsticky iris, even though I own a few fragrances that use it. It’s starting to bother me less, but it still isn’t my favorite style. That’s why I always avoided the densest, most makeup‐forward releases in the Dior Homme line. For comparisons: - JPG Le Male Le Parfum has a stronger, more lipsticky iris, but still feels safe. It’s also denser overall, giving it a younger, more party‐forward vibe. - Givenchy Gentleman EDP has a much more powdered iris, and the drydown is more vanillic. In Dior Homme Parfum 2025, the drydown leans more into ambered woods instead. - Armani Code Parfum feels closer to the old-school Code DNA. I didn’t get that same proximity here. Now, after all the backlash (which honestly made me more curious lol), I tried the new releases, and here’s the truth: I really liked them. I bought the Sport version because I found it at a great price. The OG Dior Homme (2020) is generic and boring to me. The Cologne is really good, but too expensive for what it is; you can find fresh fragrances for a fraction of the price. Now I’ve tested the new Parfum, and this one is amazing. The iris is toned down and fresher, and the drydown is pure opium‐like warmth. I loved it. PS: For the makeup‐bag, lipstick‐iris purists, just go to Dior Homme Intense and be happy. This Parfum is a different direction — smoother, warmer, and much easier to wear.

How this has such a bad rating is mind-boggling to me. What are these noses on? Same people probably have no issue snorting diesel creatine up their nostrils. I have never tried the former version of the scent, thus i can only speak of this as it is. Masculine and an energetic yet sophisticated individual. Classy and elegant, yet made mass-appealing (especially during the opening-mid) and modern at the same time. It starts off with an Iris note with a fresh designer-esque approach to it, which i actually didn't enjoy, as i tend to gravitate towards more daring and niche styles. During the mid - a subtle, yet present and intriguing Dior Homme Intense lipsticky iris note starts to unveil itself behind the curtains, which is where the scent starts becoming much more interesting and complex. I love how the DHI profile is played out in this scent. Good performance. Think i'll get a bottle soon of this. Don't believe ratings, test for yourself. Edit: Got the bottle. It's mainstream in such a sexy way. I can understand why some frag-heads think this is boring, due to the mainstream designer nature of the scent. I just believe it does it in an awesome way. Definitely an amber forward scent with a prominent iris note. Performance is so far average, so not the best at that.

I’ve had Dior Homme Parfum 2025 for about three months now, and honestly, I don’t understand all the hate this fragrance gets. I agree with one thing though the original was a masterpiece, but let’s be real, it was also hard to wear for the average person. It demanded confidence and the right setting. This 2025 version keeps the core DNA intact. That buttery, powdery iris Dior does better than anyone is still front and center. The difference is how it’s presented. It feels modernized, smoother, and far more versatile. It’s no longer just a statement piece. It’s something you can actually reach for without overthinking it. Projection is moderate to strong for the first couple of hours, enough to be noticed without overwhelming a room. Longevity sits right around eight hours on my skin, which is more than solid for something this refined. What really stands out to me is the vibe. It’s classy, gentlemanly, and still manages to be sexy in a quiet, confident way. This isn’t loud or flashy. It’s tailored, polished, and intentional. I’ll say it plainly. I much prefer this over the original. It fits my lifestyle better, gets worn more often, and still delivers that iconic iris experience. This will absolutely maintain its spot as the iris fragrance in my collection.

I haven’t smelled the older version, so I can’t really compare them. But honestly, I like the 2025 Dior Homme Parfum a lot. I understand why some people say it went in a more mainstream direction. It does feel more easy to like and more designer-like than something very niche. But for me that is not a bad thing. I am usually more of a niche fragrance guy, and still I really enjoy having this kind of well made mainstream scent in my collection. The scent feels smooth, warm, a bit sweet, a bit powdery and very put together. I still get the Dior Homme DNA, especially in the elegant iris/powdery feeling, but this Parfum feels more ambery, modern and versatile. It smells clean, dressed up and confident without feeling cheap. I also own Dior Homme Intense. For me, DHI feels a bit more niche quality, more elegant, softer and more romantic. But Dior Homme Parfum feels more versatile and probably easier to use more often. I can see myself wearing it to work, in the evening, on a date or just when I want to feel more polished. I think this version is a bit underrated. Maybe it is not the most artistic or unique Dior Homme ever, but it is well made and enjoyable. Sometimes a good mainstream fragrance is exactly what you want, and for me this one really works.

When this was launched, I couldn't believe the direction they took compared to the 2014 launch. When I tried it in store after a few wears, there was an addicting note in here which I could not pinpoint. When I got myself my own bottle, I was convinced this is a phenomenal Designer release of the past few years. This is an amber iris-dominant scent that lingers all day and projects all throughout the room. The patchouli adds to the spiciness on the dry-down but that iris stays all throughout. I won't argue that this scent leans more towards being mass-appealing, however it's done differently to me. The problem with the "Reminds me of" section on Fragrantica is that it may remind you of said fragrance, but it doesn't make it exactly similar. To Compare it to that section: - Le Male le Parfum: Nothing like it IMO, not even the iris. To me, JPG's is a vanilla blast - Ultra Male: Only similarity here is the spicy accord -Armani Code Parfum: The iris notes are similar here, however DHP does it much smoother IMO If this was a different name like "Dior Homme Elixir" I think this would be rated much higher. Francis, for me, you have done it again.

There's nothing really wrong with this fragrance. It is nicely blended, smells pretty good. The opening is amazing. The problem lies in two fronts: 1 - the fragrance it replaced. 2 - the price tag. Had this been launched as Dior homme amber, Dior homme Joy (pick a name yourself if you want), it wouldn't have received 10% of the hate it has received. Dior's mistake was to discontinue DHP 2020 and replace it with this one. They are diametrically opposite fragrances. The original was powdery, woody and leathery, with touches of rose and a lot of ambrette. Masterpiece. This one is in line with current trends, sweet, ambery, not powdery at all. Some hints of lipstick on the opening. But the two are too different to have the same name. And this price (more than the og) for 25% less juice is the second mistake. It is a great fragrance. Go to the store and sample it yourself before believing in the current 2.96 rating on fragrantica. You may hate it, but you may like it, and even love it, specially if you put aside (if you can) the fact that Dhp2020 is gone (perhaps forever).

I would never pay the $170 price tag a 75mL calls for on Jomashop, however, after snagging it sealed for $55, believing I’d get a fake, when it turned out to be real, I am very pleased. Definitely stays close to that Dior Homme DNA, the iris is all you smell for nearly the first 20 minutes, but then it dries down into something more complex, woody and amber undertones, while keeping a strong iris base. The iris is unbelievably strong, but only at a distance. Up close, it’s fainter, softer, to the point it’s comforting and never overwhelming, which is a very desirable trait. I do understand the comparison to ultra male, it’s there, but it never overwhelms or desires to be smelled across the room. It’s subtle, making the people around you want to come in close, never scaring them away. It’s not exciting, not as dramatically different as other fragrances from Dior, but it doesn’t need to be. It gives off maturity, but in a fun way. I was gonna resell, but maybe I’ll hold onto this hidden gem for something easy to wear this fall. 8.7/10.

I bought Dior Homme Parfum 2025 directly from Dior as soon as it became available and have been wearing it two to three times per week ever since, avoiding it on hot days. It's become my favourite choice out of the more modern-leaning collection of designers I own. I believe it works well in a professional environment during the day and as a "night-out" fragrance during the evening. My favourite aspect of this fragrance is the journey it takes from the opening to the drydown, making it an ideal companion to shadow you throughout the work day and into the evening. The floral and earthy elements in the opening and mid present more formally; ideal for an office or retail setting. Then, the amber that radiates off the skin in the drydown is a comforting surprise when it's finally time to let a few buttons loose and roll up those sleeves. Dior Homme Parfum 2025 not a powerful fragrance, but it is an effortless confident booster that keeps things classy and has a bit of play.

Many people say this isn't unique, but honestly? It's a lot different from what you usually smell on the street. Of course there's gonna be a couple two or three things that smell similar, but even so, this remains unique among those. Starts out soapy, which is my favorite part, though it doesn't last long. It quickly dries down into something very sweet and resinous. There is, though, a very prevalent earthiness in the background from the patchouli and vetiver. I seem to be getting a lot more of that than others. Performance is alright, doesn't blow anything out of the water, which in my opinion is good, because you don't always want to suffocate those around you. I overall find it very enjoyable and unique and highly recommend it. It's the standard fall and winter nighttime category, but it gives me much more of a fall feeling than winter. But to be honest, this could probably be worn in almost any occasion.

Smells quite good. Wore it for eid salah. It's definitely very very noticeable in colder weather. That warm silky iris reaaally shines through in breezy weather. Please spray 1-2 at most. It is very very noticeable. Sprayed it a few times more than that and could still smell it a day later. UPDATE: I got myself a small bottle. The more I smell it the more I love it. It's so soothing and warm without being spicy. The buttery iris is incredible and the ambery notes keeps it masculine. Its just calm and collected. Fantastic in the breeze and cold weather. 4 sprays is enough for a long time. Strong. Sophisticated. Not loud and fruity. Not juvenile. Doesn't feel synthetic doesn't itch my nose. Update #2: I feel the more I use it the more ambery and less iris I get... its very ambery and almost leathery. I've noticed that it's most like that when I spray a lot. A few sprays seems more iris oriented

I don't care what everyone has been saying about this masterpiece, however DHP25 slander will not be tolerated, I'm 20 years old, I would've loved wearing the old batch of Dior Homme Parfum but it's just way too formal targeted for a more mature audience, Dior took a different approach to make it more versatile and more wearable for young people. Maybe dior should've named it something else for you guys to accept it, but you guys should accept that its not the same than the old batch but this is still a very good fragrance done by a great perfumer, premium ingredients, mass appealing, versatile for winter, beautiful iris opening... I rate it as a 9/10 (DHP25 does not deserve the 3.2 rating which is obviously coming from people mad because they reformulated the old batch...) Longevity 9 to 11hours (way more on clothes). Very noticeable sillage and great projection.

EDIT: I see a lot of people comparing this to Prada L’Homme intense black bottle (2017) I have both frags & this Dior does smell like iris however it is NOT overpowering iris such as Prada L’homme intense, this is a nice creamy iris in the opening and that iris in the dry down starts to fade out and you get a more woody, boozy scent with a tiny bit of iris in the back as to where Prada you get heavy iris the entire way through. Opening is a strong iris yes, it does go away after a while, has a nice boozy smell imo, love that about it, definitely a gentlemen’s scent not for 20 year olds. On my skin it last 7hrs+, the dry down skin scent strongly reminds me of azzaro most wanted edp intense. 3/5 rating is old Dior fans glazing the OG and not being open minded. Overpriced? Yes. $200 for 2.5oz is diabolical.

Guys, are we really doing this? Being upset that the new DHP isn’t the same as the original is totally understandable. But dragging down the fragrance with low ratings and "over the top" claims about performance doesn’t help anyone. Not everyone here shares your connection to the old version, and unfairly slamming the new one just makes this community less trustworthy. We know the fragrance doesn’t last just 1-2 hours, and it’s not a 2-star scent. Dior isn’t going to change anything because of comments here, but misleading other enthusiasts and creating unnecessary negativity only hurts the community. Share your disappointment, but don't let nostalgia ruin the trust in a great community. Let’s keep the discussion honest and useful for everyone. Lets actually be grown-ups for once.

I have been an huge fan of the Dior Homme line for years and after a year of hearing all the hate for this one I finally got around to trying it out at Dillards and honestly it does not deserve the hate. Yeah it doesn’t smell like the original DH parfum(which I have 2 bottles of) but it does smell like an elevated and more potent version of the original 2009 DH edt (which I also have). It has the heavy iris, citrus, amber, a somewhat chocolaty vibe (from the patchouli) that the first formulation had. It’s not as luxurious as the original Parfum but it’s very very good and more wearable. Although being my favorite all time scent the og DHP I feel it’s a little to bold and potent to pull off for most occasions, while this reformulation is doable anytime or at least in colder months.

I tend to not like Iris ( Prada L'homme, Older Dior Homme etc. However, Dior knocked it out of the park with this one. 2 sprays & you are good all day. It smells amazing from opening to dry down. Nothing seems out of place, it all blends together so well. I have Armani Code Parfum which is very similar to this. However, the opening is not as good as Dior & Code smells less refined imo & vanilla heavy. Both are versatile, Not overly heavy for Parfums, and this is the perfect signature scent for any occasion except heat. Fits better when dressed up. Dior 2020 is great for an easy reach. Its basic woody & Does its job. I prefer homme sport, so if testing Dior's, The Parfum is a completely different frag compared to the others. Five Stars out of 5.

Stop comparing this to the original DHP. No fucking shit, it will be different, the notes are different, bottle, everything. Now, without these uneducated haters, I can finally speak about this scent. I got a bottle today, and man it is amazing. it is ambery, woody and that classic Dior iris, which gives it this slight chalk-iness to it. Really sweet fragrance, however still retains the masculine side of the dior homme line. Quite similar to Jean Paul, Le male le parfum, however it has that twist to it, which makes it not too redundant to own both. It projects well, and lasts nicely. I highly encourage checking this one out if you love that classic amber and iris combo. 8.8/10

dior homme parfum 2014 has these peaks and valleys of oud, rose, chocolate and iris which can come off as aged, complexed, classy and middle eastern. DHP 2025 is more like a well blended designer bubble that is very nice on the nose, not challenging at all. it is mass appealing so it would quickly become boring if overanalysed by a fraghead but in the air it hits beautifully. it still has some of that DHP2014 floralness to it, its like the sweet parts have been taken and rebuilt to be nicer overall. it still has the special occasion quality, its gorgeous, bottle is hideous though. jpg and other designer comparisons are just butt hurt and inaccurate, the smell is unique

This is good... 3.13 score definitely doesn't do it justice. More like 4.1. If it didnt have the history that it has the score would be totally different. Definitely a iris bomb again. A more dark and elegant take on powdery iris. So not far of the Dior home parfum and iris tracks. Realy nice composition. Dont remember the previous version and I get that the people miss what was. But this is also very good. Maybe a little too simple and generic? Maybe yeah. But usability is much greater bcs of that. I much prefer it to Intense version. It also reminds me of Burrbery Hero Parfum. I guess its the woody aspect. The price.... ok pricing is too high

I tried this today at the store out of curiosity. Coming to comment because it absolutely doesn't deserve the hate. Hadn't tried the older or the newer one, but when I put it on, got hit with a deep iris and maybe it's psychosomatic, but even felt like I smelled chocolate. Was wearing Ormonde Man at the time (winter go-to for me), and thought "Jeez, this may be better than Ormonde Man." So, dropping a quick review to counterbalance the absolute hate this is getting here. Yes, Dior can't seem to sort their naming in this line. DH2020 also got a pile of hate and to an extent DHS2021. Both of those scents are great, as is this one.

I've never smelled the OG Dior Homme Parfum, and I do find it weird that Dior would basically discontinue it (reformulate it so much) that it's no longer the same fragrance. Especially for something that is a cult classic (so I hear), I hope they bring it back so I can try it. Now, as far as the Dior Parfum 2025, I love this stuff. You get iris on top for the first 20 minutes, and then it dries down into this slightly sweet, slightly chocolatey amber scent. It almost reminds me of The One EDP, but it lasts forever. I highly recommend this for anyone looking for a classy and mature, yet easygoing winter fragrance.

If you LOVE that Dior iris... you need this one. I know this gets a ton of hate because of the change... BUT, if you love that iris... this juice is a straight blast of it. I don't know if my bottle has changed since getting it. I bought it on release. I feel like it was more buttery when I first got it. But now. Yooooooo. Iris heaven. ...it is a beast too. It shines in this freezing old dry air that we have right now on the north east US. Two sprays, on neck, lasts all day long. I might grab another bottle when they go on sale. It's better than Intense.

To be honest, the scent itself is not bad. I actually quite enjoy it. It is very mass-appealing and, at least for me, is very strong, filling whole rooms. Today I even received a compliment on it saying that it is very nice and very strong. People could smell me from the other part of the room. But I have to say that the original perfume is better, even the intense version is better smell-wise. Ignoring all of that, I think this fragrance doesn't deserve the hate it gets. I would give it between 7 and 8 out of 10. Try it before buying it.

2.97 is embarrassing. All the 1s coming from clowns who live for clones. I love the OG DHP. Buy a couple bottles and stop crying. If this was called Lattafa Homme everyone here would say it doesn’t reinvent the wheel, but it smells great, with fantastic performance from all ends. People run around wearing 8 cent clones, but cry like this over a cologne they had 11 years to buy a bottle and can still buy one. Embarrassing. Trolling a container of scented alcohol. Embarrassing.

I think this fragrance will gain popularity for years to come and recover from the bashful reviews of its release. Just like how YSL MYSLF started off as a 3/5 stars on here, then soared to 4.2 after people realized how good it really is. Edit: After some wears & comparisons, I find this to be a mix of Prada L'Homme Intense and JPG Ultra Male. Take PLI's iris opening, and Ultra Male's spicy dry down. That's how I would summarize DHP 2025.

One of my favorite fragrances of all time, but i'd have to try the old batch because many people say that it's the best dior parfum ever made, i'd have to give it a try but still, this is perfection in a bottle, amazing, it's such a signature scent worthy it cannot get better than that!!! 10/10, can't get why are people disappointed on this, it's just as good imo, unfair rating... Overall: 10/10

As someone who hasn’t smelled the original formulation I can only say this is a great scent for what it is trying to do. Yes it does smell designer like but its still a cut above the rest and you won’t smell like your local mall. Performance is great and the Iris is well done. It’s more fizzy than waxy. I would take this over any JPG, Armani paco rabanne any day of the week. 9/10

Amazing fragrance. Cannot understand the amount of downvotes here, people who are disappointed with the previous version being discontinued, should downvote Dior as a fashion house instead. This scent is absolutely great, classy, masculine. Suits more to dressed up or formal occasions, but I love it and really tempted to wear it anywhere. Highly recommend!

If it is not compared to the older release, this is actually a nice parfum on it's own. It's long lasting with moderate sillage, very wearable gentlemanly fragrance for almost every occasion. That said, I love them both, but, 2020 version is for special occasions. Btw, just laugh and laugh reading all the complaints and hates. Unbelivable reactions.

Do not listen to the schizoid reformulation freaks. This is a marvelous fragrance. It's a gorgeously irisy, soft and dark, mass-appealing, and masculine postmodern masterpiece. Best to wear in the cold. People will speak about it when you're wearing it-- in a positive way. And you'll feel good wearing it. That's all that matters, right?

Sometimes the fragrance community can be weird. Always try something for yourself. I smelled this at a department store and I couldn’t stop smelling the tester strip I sprayed it on. It smells good and I honestly like this better than the OG. The OG was different but not my style. This is right up my alley. Hope to get a bottle soon.

Well my mind was officially blown today ! I’ve always avoided all these because I can’t do the overly powdery vibe. Recently tried all the 2025 versions and blew my wig back. I’m In love with them. Far better than anything that I’ve previously tried. I also like the smaller bottle design better. Big fan of the 2025 releases.

f*** DHP conservatives, couldn't care less about the old formula. Put this on on 2 different date nights, got complimented from both uber drivers on the way there, and then got complimented by both the girls I was going out with. Waaaah but this doesn't smell like skinky a** no more let me go on Fragantica to cry about it.

This one is easily top fragrance of year and will always be in top 10s of all times just because it has the wrong name people are giving bad reviews are most probably haven't even tried it on, and if you own the old batch why worry and if you don't then fucking get one, I got 2 bottles after it discontinued so can you.

I never tried the earlier parfums so I don't have any emotional attachment to them. What I like about this scent is that it smells just like christmas snacks like biscuits, but without being a gourmand. It's abstract enough to hint at it without actually being it. I think it smells amazing, very addictive.

This is such a beautiful fragance one of my all time bests.So glad I blind brought this. What this does it does really well It's smooth sweet attention grabbing, this is an intro to iris this is just a beautiful iris.The iris fades quickly and settles into a very nice vanilla note

PLEASE READ: This is genuinely a masterpiece. Ignore the idiots who sadly plague the community like cancer. Dior hasn't had anything promising in a while and this just brought back some excitement. I promise you, you'll miss it when it probably will be discontinued.

In my opinion this is better than the OG. The Iris turned down to a less feminine and less lipstick level. Its been tweaked to make it more modern than its predecessor. Over all this still one of Diors greatest scent. Ignore the clowns and haters. This is FIRE 🔥

This rating of 3.12 is very unrealistic and we should all be more honest with these reviews as it makes people who like the scent profile second guess themselves. Same story as with Habit Rouge L'instinct, a great fragrance getting 1's because of its name.

I don't get the hate for this one. It smells great. People seem to compare it to its previous versions and are disappointed. I don't know how the previous version smelled. I don't care. This one smells great and lasts versy long, that's all I care about.

I'm a DHI fanatic but never liked this line of Parfums they are just too sweet somehow, something is certainly off. Got a bottle in 2015 that I sold. But this 2025 version is nice! I guess it's something for us less sophisticated people to enjoy! 😄

Warm yummy amber accord, not really getting the other notes listed though, I like it, unisex-masculine. Very safe appealing fragrance, I feel like you could wear this year round unlike other fragrances in this category that are more fall/winter.

The original is the greatest designer ever, 10/10. That said, this is unbelievably amazing as well. I need both in my collection, and I'm glad I do. This is also a 10, not as much of a 10 as the OG, but still a masterpiece.
