Les Creations de Monsieur Dior Diorling

I think Dior did a fantastic job at resurrecting their beloved classics, and Diorling is no exception. This scent is a jasmine and leather combination to die for, a scent which seems as though it was scent down from heaven itself. I am yet to experience the original formulation of Diorling unfortunately, but I can only imagine how stunning it is. As is frequent in contemporary marketing, the notes are very much trimmed to the basics. Jasmine is the leading note, with its airy, soapy qualities mingling beautifully with an ever so delicate leather note which is brisk and mellow. There’s a touch of green sharpness, perhaps hyacinth, alongside a whisper of oakmoss. I’ve fallen in love with this scent, more than most of my recent pick ups, which is ironic because it is also one of my cheapest. For a scent that I can spray care-free without worrying about running out, Diorling is perfect. I will always own this.

Bought today and love at first sight. Well, I am fan of this kind of perfumes so I am very partial. The opening is very flowery, very elegant and little by little the flowers leave space to woods and finally leather paired with a little bitter note. But both the woods and leather are tamed by the initial flowers which have not gone away but only hidden. I can't tell about the original Diorling, if somebody told me this is the original formula I would believe without hesitation as the spirit of the scents of that time has been totally preserved and not destroyed as in other reformulations. I am happy that Diorling reappeared again after years of oblivion and I do hope also Dior Dior will resurface soon.

I picked up my fluffy old chihuahua this morning, I gave her a big squeeze and a sniff....mmm Diorling, which I have been wearing this week. Chihuahua with a coating of Diorling might just be the best smell in the whole world. P.S. I aint sprayin' the damn dawg lol X

I received a smaller amount today and it's easy to say that I was delighted! I was afraid of skin, but this is a fantastically blended chypre. Love for all time. ❤

This is a floral-oakmoss-chypre bomb. Love it!
