Miss Dior Absolutely Blooming

Finally, I’ve purchased Miss Dior Absolutely Blooming . This was on my wishlist for a really long time but for some unknown reason it took me this long to finally add this to my collection. I’ve tried Miss Dior Absolutely Blooming for the first time back in 2018/2019 and it was a love at first sniff. Finally it’s mine! Better late than never I guess! How Does It Smell...? Miss Dior Absolutely Blooming has a beautiful sweet rose-berry smell with a musky dry down. I get a fresh pink peppery vibe which almost instantly fades away and then I get a beautiful sweet jammy-fruity concoction of Raspberry, Blackcurrant and Pomegranate. Gradually it turns into a beautiful and youthful Sweet Jammy-Berry Rose fragrance with some freshness of Peonies. The drydown smells heavenly with the combination of soft white musk and the jammy rose. And this stays linear till the fragrance completely fades away. Is It Similar To Any Other Popular Fragrance...? The opening of Miss Dior Absolutely Blooming kind of reminds me of my favourite Christian Dior Rouge Trafalgar. The drydown is similar to Miss Dior EDP. Also, the rose here has some similarities with the berry rose of Lancôme La nuit tresor. But I won’t call it a dupe of any of these perfumes. It’s unique in its own way because it took all the good things from the mentioned Fragrances and evolved into a Bright, Young and Elegant fragrance. It will cheer your mood instantly and make you enjoy the little things in life. How Is The Performance Of This Fragrance...? I get around 7 hours of longevity on my skin but on clothes it stays overnight. Miss Dior Absolutely Blooming creates a beautiful Scent bubble and radiates within a hands distance of the wearer. It leaves a beautiful Scent trail as well. I usually prefer to use 4-6 sprays of this fragrance during daytime and warm weather. As it’s a sweet jammy rose fragrance hence, over-spraying it might feel a little suffocating. But during cold weather or rainy days you can over-spray without hesitation and as it’s an inoffensive fragrance you don’t have to worry about bothering the people around you. Is it A Complement Getter...? Yes, it is. In fact I find the whole Miss Dior line as complement grabbers. They smell beautiful, youthful and elegant so people around you will appreciate your choice of Fragrances. When and Where You Can Spray This Fragrance..? Miss Dior Absolutely Blooming is perfect for all year round use. I personally feel it’s more suitable for Dates, Parties, Hangouts or other informal occasions. I won’t recommend it for meeting or interviews or any other formal/serious occasions. It’s a happy fragrance and goes perfectly with casual events. I just adore Miss Dior Absolutely Blooming. I’m glad that I finally added this discontinued gem to my collection. Personally I always prefer Dior as they make mass appealing Fragrances. It is sad that they discontinued most of our favorite perfumes. I just wish they decide to bring the same Miss Dior Absolutely Blooming back again without any changes or reformulations. #review 💕 Please Note we all have different olfactory system so what is pleasing to my nose may not be pleasing to yours. It's always better to try a fragrance before buying a full bottle.

I have fallen in love with this beautiful perfume and think I have found a new signature scent! The red berries in the opening are delicious and fresh (not thick or syrupy to my nose ... ). The rose is fresh, but sweet and jammy at the same time (if that's possible? :)). The dry down is sweet and musky. Longevity on my skin was really good about 8 hours and the first time I tested it, I could smell it wafting from my wrists as I moved about during the day. I wouldn't say sillage is huge, but moderate enough because it's maybe a strong scent for some ... I don't think it's offensively strong, because it is strong and sweet (and obviously that's not everyone's cup of tea :) ) I never really considered myself a rose lover, but I'd recently been on the hunt for a fresh modern rose, and I think this is it for me. I used to have Parisienne, which had some of the same notes in the opening and heart, but was always too musky for me. I made a mistake when ordering and got the edp not the flanker parisienne extreme which I think was the sweeter one I had initially tested and liked (of course that was over a decade ago now ... ). At any rate, this is what I wanted Parisienne to be ... sweet, rosey, tart fresh berries. I think it could suit any age if berries and rose with a sweet musk is what you're after. Update: I have never done this before, but I bought a backup bottle! I love this so much and I'm hearing rumblings that this may be discontinued??? It's still on the dior site and all the discounters, but I can't take any chances now that I've found this beauty! Also- I’ve discovered less is more. The more sprays I use, the less I smell it. Probably becoming asnomic to it so 2 sprays is enough to smell it for a long time.

wow, how much i like this scent. This has been an expensive six month quest. i am an older lady 60+...you guys know what i am talking about. i wanted some fragrances younger people would wear. i teach high school and smell all the lovely fragrances the girls wear. Typical teenager: "you smell so good...what perfume are you wearing?" Blank stare, "I dunno miss" "well, where did you get it from?" Derp... "my sister got it for me." "Well, can you read the label and tell me tomorrow?" No response . "Well, what does it smell like?" Sarcasm ahead "use your words..." Ending in Total Frustration. i polled my students and they recommended anything victorias secret and nicky minaj, progress on this front. Ok, onward we go. not a dime of my money is going to nicky minaj. nuf said. Edit: I did smell them, but i am so anti Nikki minaj, I couldn't tell you what they smelled like. going to victorias secret is probably not going to happen. Edit: I went to VS and fell in love but that's another story. i tried all sorts of fragrances clerks recommended and they all smelled the same, lovesick, lovestruck, viva juicy, new miss dior etc... fruit plus patchouli. smells like cuban cigars (in a good way); i love them but now i own four different bottles and they all smell the same to me. I now know what a fruit chouli is. I get it. No more. so my wish became please let me find a fruit, modern, "now" fragrance that is not patchouli based. enter absolutely blooming. i stumbled across two youtube videos about it. very strong, long lasting, new to me, happy, gorgeous, wow. Went to macys instead of Walgreen. my only wish is that i could dab instead of spray. good stuff.

It’s tart, floral, and woody. Not sure where the woodiness is coming from but they don’t always get the pyramid correct. I love this tart quality in fragrances that you get from the top. Mon Paris Intensment and Si Passione have it as well. The peony is the highlight for me. Tart black currant, sweet raspberries, and a fragrant bouquet of May roses and peonies harnessed by a pleasant musk and a mystery woodiness. This scent is addictive and I want to decant my little bottle to spray myself throughout the day. The projection and silage is nice. It’s present but not stifling or overwhelming. Creates a nice little scent bubble when sprayed generously. Behind Miss Dior Cherie EDT, this is my favorite. By no means does this smell like MDC EDT though. That one is not tart at all and is sweet with the popcorn, praline, and patchouli notes. I'm now up to owning 7 oz of this stuff! I may sell off my collection. lol. (Note picture to left!) EDIT: I have been wearing this everyday since I got it. WHY did I wait for it to be d/c before trying this flanker?!! I already bought a back up bottle AND the travel rollerball to re-apply throughout the day. I'm thinking this may pass MDC EDT as my favorite edition of MD. This DNA just really suits my DNA. PDM, Chanel, Guerlain and Dior all do really well on my skin. I haven't loved EVERY perfume from all these houses but they all make sense of my skin and I think I get what they were trying to accomplish on my skin Currently now at 9.4 oz of this! I just want to make sure I don't run out for the next decade. lol

After what they did to Miss Dior (original) and mainly the fact that Cherie was gone forever, I sweared I wasn’t gonna touch another Miss Dior flanker...yet I couldn’t help but fell in love with this gem. I’m aware isn’t everyone cup of tea but considering that Dior butchered most of their good fragrances, I was pleasantly surprised by this one and actually shocked is still on their website. Then I’ve noticed they haven’t launched a set box for this particular one and I knew is on the life support. No point shouting out loud “shame on you Dior”. We’re all aware that everything they do at the moment is boring rose on top of more rose that doesn’t make sense. I wonder what Addict or Hypnotic Poison would smell like when they add more hideous rose in it and butchered them, because I can sense this coming...and I’ve nightmares thinking of it!!! Side note: I do love rose (obviously) but not so much of it and in such a weird combination. Anyway enough waffling...my point is I love AB because somehow reminds me a little bit of the beloved Miss Dior Cherie ( not a dupe but similarities) . Also all that jammy raspberry “yumminess” going on in the top notes really reminds me of Valentino Valentina Pink, which has been sadly discontinued (sigh of despair), also could smell some Tresor Midnight Rose and with peony in the mix it really gives me some La Colle Noire vibes, from Dior’s Maison collection. Lucky enough still available here in UK at the moment but probably not for long.
