Dioramour

Blind buy - risky enough concerning the price, anyway reading all the positive reviews I decided to take a risk. Was it worth it? At the beginning the perfume opens with a heavy iris and refreshing jasmine notes at a background. It is a really beautiful combination, because iris itself is very powerful and sometimes too sweet, therefore jasmine clams it down and literally "cool" all the composition. After a while the scent dries down to a creamy powdery note, I do not feel jasmine any more, only powdery notes with light iris. On me the perfume is not so long lasting as it is written in the description of the perfume on the Dior site. I would rather say that the perfume is with a moderate longevity, does not disappear immediately, but also does not last for the whole day. However, the sillage is rather heavy at the beginning, it leaves the light trail wherever you go, but after drying down it becomes weaker and weaker that I stop to smell anything at all. Is it perfect for a blind buy? I guess not. If you are familiar with other iris fragrances and you like it, you would certainly enjoy Dioramour. And if you are not, you'd rather try it. I did have Infusion d'iris Absolue by Prada, but that perfume was too heavy, I wore it during a winter time only. Anyway this one is a very light powdery iris, perfect for a spring and early autumn. I don't think that Dioramour is good for a summer time, still powder and iris are not the perfect combination for a very hot and windless weather. To sum up, it is really a rich and gorgeous perfume, with only three notes in it Dior managed to create a real masterpiece for a confident, rich and alluring woman. Powder, iris, jasmine - the less is better.

CHRISTIAN DIOR - DIORAMOUR MorningSpringIris 🤍 🌄 What is the first word comes in mind for spring season? For me it's obviously 'flower' because in this season all trees and plants are blooming with their flowers everywhere 🌺🌸. DIORAMOUR is a highly natural smelling and simple fragrance with iris flower as the main star. It has a very gentle and delicate characteristics yet the presence is always noticeable. This give the wearer feeling of elegance and poise. I quote Dior's description found on their website. 'Dioramour is a comforting fragrance, like a morning ray of sunshine that gently wakes you'. I find it very accurate because it's precisely what I felt in every wearing. It has a slightly watery/aquatic quality like the morning mist adding freshness to the composition. Thus can be worn by everyone for it's androgynous character. Natural iris that is slightly powdery and also musky gives a sensuous feeling. I think Francois Demachy's decision as the perfumer to keep the composition as simple as it can, truly highlight the purpose of this fragrance as a complementary scent or second skin without interfering the smells of the wearer's surroundings. Wearing the scent I still can fully enjoy and appreciate the beautiful smells in this season. The ever slightly lipsticky nuance found in this fragrance is perfect to boost confidence and take the fragrance in a mature manner. I highly recommend it because I rarely find a simple composition that wears beautifully and merge with the nature surroundings so perfectly. Thanks for reading and I hope everyone can fully enjoy this colorful spring season 🤍❤️🩷💛💚. #vscentorientreview

Really exquisite silage from this fragrance. I received a 7.5ml. bottle as a gift when I made another purchase on Dior's site. I've read all the reviews and heard a lot of complaints about the longevity and unfortunately, I have to agree with them. But, for a few hours before it becomes a skin scent, this gives off a lovely light, floral, slightly sweet, lightly powdery silage that's very surrounding. Iris is prominent and I can pick it up from beginning to end, but I can also smell the jasmine weaving in and out and what smells a little like heliotrope as there is a slight almondy note here. Somewhat linear, as it doesn't jump through hoops like other fragrances that have a defined beginning, middle, and end, though it does go through subtle changes. While overall a simple arrangement, the quality of ingredients is unmistakable and contributes to a very elegant, smooth, and refined composition. Would I purchase it? Maybe, maybe not. Maybe, because even though it's over $200 for a bottle, that bottle is 4oz. Maybe not, because I already have a lot of similar scents I like more, with Shalimar Initial L'Eau and Chanel 1932 topping the list. At least that's the argument going on in my head right now over whether to pull the trigger and buy it. This time though, I think the angel on my shoulder will win out because there are other scents from this line I'm more interested in right now, like Bois D'Argent and Grand Bal. Besides, I still have several more wears from the mini bottle I received. Still, if someone were to give this to me as a gift, I would be delighted to receive it. It really is a beautiful fragrance.

Where to begin with Dioramour? Where to end? This fragrance will haunt me for years to come; it is truly so, so beautiful. I received a decant through a subscription service, and I had really chosen it haphazardly without expecting much. Unsuspecting, I sprayed it on my wrist to test it when it arrived. I took a breath and fell in love immediately. I cannot say enough good things about Dioramour. It seems like it should be generic, but somehow is not. Among other powder and iris fragrances, it stands a cut above the rest, with the most romantic, cloud-like quality. When I wear it, I feel as though I'm being swept away into another and more glamorous life than my own. It isn't a seductive smell, but it is inviting and alluring. I find it to be soothing, feminine, and soft. I don't often love very powdery scents, but this one is exceptional. It has a very clean feeling to it, as well — almost bubbly, as though I've just had a bath. I wish I could better explain how such a simple composition of powder, iris, and jasmine smells so beautiful. The perfume is long-lasting on my skin; I can smell it when I go to bed at night, after having sprayed it in the late morning. The silage is only moderate, but I don't find that to be a fault. The perfume's sole drawback, as far as I'm concerned, is its price, which is very steep. I am preciously hoarding my decant (and angling for a second) while I slowly save up for a bottle of this. Even if it takes me a year, it will have been worth it.

I received a 8 ml canister decant of this through a subscription service I use. I immediately fell in love with it's delicate floralcy. I just purchased a 1.3 oz bottle. A full size is out of my price range so it will have to do. I think Ill also order another decant because I dont want to be without this. It's truly a superior iris fragrance. I have many iris fragrances in my collection, from niche, such as Iris Poudree, through bargain old school fragrances such as E'sprit de Oscar de la Renta, and this may very well top them all. It's a fragrance of extreme delicacy, powdery, but not suffocating so for me. I'm wearing it as I type, just a single spritz to my left wrist, and delicious wafts of beautiful iris powder, slightly cosmetic in nature, but much more than that. I don't have more to add than that right now, as I am only getting to know it, but I can not recommend it highly enough to iris lovers, especially those who enjoy just a tiny bit of sweetness. It is both beautiful AND sophisticated, and I feel wonderful wearing it. The sillage is moderate - more of a private scent bubble. The longevity is TBD. Purchase it asap, as my understanding is that it has been quite disappointingly and foolishly discontinued. I can't get enough!
