Dior Star

EDIT: After using it a few times, I've really fallen in love with it - the petit grain scent is one that works really well for me and that's what started coming through after awhile. The first time I smelled it I didn't care for it, but it grew on me and now I love it! Already bought another bottle so I won't run out :-) Amazing how these things can grow on you, isn't it? I've left my full, original review below for completeness. My mother-in-law got me a bottle of this for my birthday - I've been surfing around making sure it really is this, because my bottle has a "CD" sticker pasted over the star on the bottle. Weird. Anyway, I'm still deciding whether I like it or not - the first spray of the scent is bright and almost citrusy - I suppose that is the mandarin orange and bergamot - but unfortunately that doesn't last long and then it turns soapy and powdery. Luckily that doesn't last long, either and the dry-down turns to a nice, soft floral scent. That will last an hour or so, then the dry-down gets really powdery and a touch sweeter - I suppose that is the almond. I would say ... it's not bad. It's not going to be a huge favorite that I will have to replace once it is gone, but it's not bad.

First time posting a review on here. But hands down I love the Dior Star perfume. Being a late millennial (born in 1994) I do like the "cheesie" or "tacky" looking bottle, as it reminds me of the glow in the dark stars my friends use to have in their bedrooms. Compared to what I usually wear from Christian Dior which are Hypnotic Poison edt and Poison Girl edp, the citrus fruity floral of Dior is a welcomed addition to my perfume collection. I'm going to be wearing this the rest of spring and all summer. Also quick question: does anyone else's bottle have eau or toilette scratched out on the bottom of the bottle? Also does anyone's bottle/box not have a batch code?

I am so happy, that I had a chance to buy full bottle of this beautiful scent. Well, again- English is not my native language so I need to think how to describe this scent... Summer is in the air! Yes it is fresh peony with almond. It is a very good harmony , because it is not too spicy or very citrus, not so sweet, just a real fresh floral fruity scent. it’s real peony On my skin and later maybe a little bit of almond left, but just a little bit, not very strong. I could say, that it is a very elegant perfume and I will use it in the evenings too. Again: nice peony nice almond J Good longevity and good sillage.

Something about this scent makes me happy. It smells very unique and is a great summery scent without being typically oceanic or citrus. It's like a sexy summer scent with a nutty? Type feel but there's something else I can't describe. It's just great I love it.

Bottled springtime ! I just bought it today, it is mid November, and I couldn't resist the smell of spring flowers. For some reason the bergamot and petit grain do not last very long. and after that , all that I smell are fresh peonies and honeysuckle. Not much musc either, and just a hint of almonds in the end, but too little to make it gourmand . The opening silage is quite strong but the scent fades quickly , it isn't long lasting like the top notes seem to promise. The entire scent sparkles with youthfulness . I don't think it's smelling cheap or tacky in any way, it is just bursting with an exuberance one can only feel when nature is coming back to life after a long winter . A clean floral, elegant , youthful and not sweet . Just fresh flowers in a crystal vase.
