La Collection Couturier Parfumeur New Look 1947

i would like to greet Henri345que for the great review La Collection Couturier Parfumeur New Look 1947 is a perfect creation .. usually um not big lunches fan anyway, and most of the descriptions left me cold. leather,big Oriental,soft flora, and Citrus aromatic, more Colognes... ummmm, no, thanks. um all stocked up .. accidentally few months back i was at Dior's counter when it catches my eyes i was curious about available bottle sizes , 450 ml !! WOW .. i tried it on and for a second i thought um smelling Kenzo Flower !! foolish-y expected YEK .. i luve KENZO Flower , but this is a not well-done copy, left without trying the rest .. forgot all about it , few hrs later i felt there is somthing soft and sweet flirting with my nose .. realizing it was Dior New Look 1947 was a surprise!! simply perfect .. never been a floral gurl , but there is somthing ORIENTAL about this scent , sweet balanced oriental ,how ever i was expecting quiet white floral draped in fields of petals .. nothing floral here , i would say its Oriental vanilla with a weak structure of light iris .sweet iris fine made .somthing here takes me to the PRADA Infusion d'Iris dry down despite the heavy incense note of Infusion d'iris , nothing bold about NEW LOOK 1947 , soft , sweet , balanced , and warm creation for a pretty lady . nothing old about this fragrance , screams of femininity . i got my bottle next day and enjoying every drop of it ! 10/10

This was an immediate love, from the first whiff out of the bottle, to spray on the paper card, to walking around on my wrist, and finally, the big splurge. I got the small bottle, which is not so small at 4.25 oz. I almost caved to the larger one as Bergdorf was having their big spring beauty sale, and looking back, maybe I should have as I am finding myself going through a lot, everyday. I find myself spritzing 4-5 times per day. I realize I am going overkill on this and perhaps offending all the people I work with in the process - but probably not as this fragrance is not strong at all. To give you an idea, I compared to Coco, which was my signature scent 15 years ago. As an experiment I picked up a sample at Sephora and tested it for the day - Coco on one arm, 1947 on the other. Coco lasted all day, perhaps a plus in some people's book - but gave me a massive, massive headache in the process. I can't believe it used to be my signature, maybe I was more tolerant, back then! 1947 is none of the overpowering headache, just pure floral elegance. 1947 is not a scent for someone trying to make a huge statement walking in the door, nor trying to overtly seduce - instead, to be subtly disarming.

Stunning!! Very well blended and unlike Kilian’s VVCAM or Chanel N°5 - the Ylang doesn’t dominate the composition but it is present. I’m experiencing the powdery Iris and Jasmine more than the other florals. New Look 1947 is so well blended it feels as if the florals are waltzing, each flower takes a turn in the lead with the vanillic benzoin. When I first received it in the mail it did not project very much. I find the New Look 1947 does a good job nodding to the past without smelling dated. After allowing the bottle to settle for two days and spraying in a concentrated way rather than all over ( 3 sprays on inner wrist and inner elbows of each arm) has created a wonderful scent bubble) ***Tangent; Never catch and release! Fragrances need time to settle after shipping. All fragrances will perform better after a few uses. Most times our senses need to get used to a fragrance before we can fully experience all the notes the fragrance has to offer.

I wanted to add to my previous review (below) and address those who say they are not noticed when wearing this perfume. This is true - this is not a big sillage-statement perfume. It is an up close and personal perfume. Think of trajectory here - are you trying to project outwards? Or draw people in - that is, the right people ... or person. I wore this on a date recently ... and once the gentleman came a bit closer (ahem), it made him want to come in even closer. Like a nice surprise waiting just for him, once he got close enough. Get it? Not the big marquee lights saying "everyone, pay attention" ... but a velvet rope experience... and what is on the other side. This perfume is about exclusivity.

2010 release batch!!! 0V1E Wow, my first response is how dare they discontinue this, the tuberose-jasmine combo is so beautifully executed, creamy white floral, gorgeous. Reminds me mum of Nana's Chanel number 5 from way back when 🥲 Intoxicating, I can't get my wrist out of my face, and the sillage is to DIE for, I don't know what they used here to add a touch of fruitiness but I'm detecting a slight lychee note in the opening, glorious glorious perfumery, Kurkdijian's take on this is as graceful as a plane landing with no wheels. @curlgurl I'm a man, an adult male human, hear me say, it ain't cute and it ain't cool anyone can wear this as long as it makes you happy, f the h8rs, be who you are 🤍

I have the 2015 formulation (original). You get every note. Every single note is detectable. It's So lovely, rich, warm, and seductive. I imagine a sexy yet professional, high paid office woman wearing this, big chunky gold halo pearl earrings and red lipstick. It's respect and seduction in a bottle. The ylang ylang, benzoin, and jasmine are dominant. Creamy and a bit spicy. Wear your shoulder pads and heels with your hair long and flowing, woman. Buzzed heads and gender nonconforming labels move aside. We are woman, adult human females; hear me roar ;⁠)

This is such a classic perfume and ages like wine. The benzoin, ylang-ylang, and rose are the dry down with a whiff of sweet vanilla. It's very flattering and slightly vintage. I imagine classy dressed women in pant suits and gawdy jewelry, impeccable hair nails and makeup with confident attitudes wearing this. It's an "Im in charge" scent. A unique fragrance that will get attention in a good way. Best in warmer months, but perhaps not hot weather. Works well in cold weather if you're inside. This one will make a comeback with vengeance.

Again I would like to concur with "henri345que" for a formidable review. There is nothing I can add except that the Tuberose note is perfectly juxtaposed with the green, woodsy, creamy other florals in a very pleasant way. I usually dislike Tuberose but this is a very unique blending of this dominant scent. It is just perfectly balanced between sweet, creamy , green, floral and musky to form a beautiful and sophisticated scent of femininity, style, class and confidence. This is like Grace Kelly comeback 2012! Female beauty redefined.

On my skin a beautiful Benzoin/Iris/Vanilla-mix with an airy Tubereuse-note. Very elegant and sophisticated without the old-lady-feeling. Not skinclose - not in your face neither -just perfect in projection and there around me for many hours. Darn expensive but a true love-gift for THE woman. For me more of an oriental - than floral scent. Now I have worn this one for a few days and today it hit me - New Look is alot alike Givenchy Amarige Mariage -whitout the Cinnamon-note. Love them both!

I purchased four .25 oz bottles- Patchouli Imperial, Cuir Cannage, Bois d’Argent, and New Look 1947- thinking I would fall head over heels for Patchouli Imperial and perhaps discover a new interesting fragrance based on the notes of the other scents. This, to my surprise, was the actual standout. Fresh, sweet and beautiful. I will enjoy this fragrance immensely! It’s fleeting, but gorgeous while it lasts.

CK Beauty is more closer to this stuff. The scent is not exactly similar but they share some notes. The good news is, this one is 10 times better than CK Beauty EDP. In dry down i get a lot of sweetness, flowery, creamy and powdery scent. It is really beautiful, elegance, sophisticated, professional and timeless. Really worth to buy.

Excellent fragrance that embodies the right amount of beauty, maturity, drama, opulence and glamour... This makes me think o big ballrooms during the renaissance period and maybe something that Marie antoinette wears when she decides tobbe epitome of a fancy lifestyle Love this smell of dusty roses

i have the 2015 and just got a bottle of the 2020, the difference is minor but i love this quiet lux smell, longevity is meh but i overspray!! curious how the newer one called "new look" is

This is absolutly nice perfume that remands me Mona di Orio Ametys ,green-powedery perfume ,very longevity,potente. Thank you ,Rouu,for your gift-decant!

This perfume is like a sunshine in a spring morning. Absolutely delightful

Dior La Collection Couturier Parfumeur NEW LOOK 1947 reminds me a bit of Krigler DOLCE TUBEROSE. Both feature tuberose combined with ylang and various and sundry other notes. NEW LOOK 1947 offers benzoin where DOLCE TUBEROSE has a detectable rosewood note, but both have good longevity and great scrumptiosity. I'm pretty sure that there is light a wood note in NEW LOOK 1947 as well--it could be cedar... I would not say that NEW LOOK 1947 is by any means a revolutionary composition, but it is a beautiful and refined one and would certainly please amateurs of Krigler and L'Artisan looking for another gentle tuberose perfume to add to their collection.

I get a big blast of benzoin right up front which remains. It’s a nice caramelized vanilla with that ylang yellow smoothness. The iris give an nice powdery base I can smell the rose and tuberose. The real stand outs are in correct up there in my opinion. Lots of benzoin, iris, tuberose, vanilla and ylang. I don’t get a lot of peony not a lot of jasmine. Man this is good. This is a grown woman who wants to smell like one without being harsh. Powdery but not the powdered wig affair of something too dated. Sophisticated, but also smooth and a little vintage. This is lady like and a little bit powdery and demure.

I was expecting a creamy white floral bec ylang-ylang and tuberose got the most vote. New Look is very powdery on my skin. Iris is very prominent so is the benzoin. The tuberose is surprisingly almost unnoticeable.. Very tame and safe perfume to wear. Sillage sits close to the skin. Moderate longevity if you have dry skin.

Absolutely beautiful. This smells like a mix of tropical, sweet flowers and warm, creamy sandalwood. So warm and sensuous. This actually reminds me somewhat of Sensuous Nude by Estee Lauder, but a bit more floral!

Sweet floral fragrance. i can detect the iris, ylang ylang and vanilla the most. very pretty scent, not special but much appreciated.
