Almaz, the Arabic word for diamonds, are renowned not only for their beauty, but also for their timelessness as they withstand millions of years of immense pressure in their formation. This EdP references the indestructible nature of diamonds with a powerful blackcurrant-led bouquet. Juiciness is enhanced with raspberry, while powdery heliotrope and musk add padding to the cushiony feel. The ambered base, redolent with vanilla and brown sugar, offsets blackcurrant’s tartness.
 
The jewelled bottle incorporates a poem composed by Elen Jeres Ayoub, portrayed in Eastern Kufic calligraphy. The words have been meticulously placed so that the vertical lines create eight zones on the bottle, representing the lunar phases in each lunar calendar month to represent the passage of time.

The seasons and their times
And pressures and their effects,
Bear Diamonds as their fruit.
-Elen Jeres Ayoub

Delulu is a soft-focus dream sequence in oversaturated colours, swirling across a soundtrack of shoegaze and nineties/noughties indie.This particular sequence follows childhood into adolescence: a favourite toy, a pack of crayons, a melted sweet in your jeans pocket, a bite of berry pie, a long sunny day doing nothing. There’s fizzy cedrat and the salty-fresh friction of tart rhubarb against rooty vetiver. Like all dreams, things get weird: a niff of rosy plastic and smoky incense. Yesterday is a place you can never visit again, but it’s still an escape from tomorrow. That’s Delulu.

Delulu bottle caps are hand made from memories, specifically a nostalgic jumble of plastic beach toys captured in epoxy resin.

A passionate declaration of love written in ink and blood. The scent opens on a dark, almost smoky red rose, pierced with crimson sparks. Metallic aldehydes emerge, adding tension and intensity. Dense magnolia adds a sweaty sweetness. The opoponax warms and deepens the whole, leaving a profound, mysterious signature.

Late summer on a wild beach: blackberry bushes in the coastal dune grass, iodine on the lips, fingertips stained purple. The vertigo of standing on an ocean clifftop, the invigorating north wind. The fragrance unfolds: salted rock, caressed by tangy blackberry and swept by sea spray. Pebbles warmed by the sun, a sap of mineral roses. Deep breaths.

The Les Éléments collection

Steep yourself in the rich, sweet, and gentle ambiance of a summer’s evening, caressed by the dappled Mediterranean light shifting in shadows and sunbeams through the branches. Figue is a private paradise for the senses, transporting you to a garden of a thousand colors.

A sparkling Mediterranean citrus is wrapped in the broad leaves of the fig tree. The green fig accord captures the fruit’s mellow, velvety smoothness before unfurling across a woody, musky base note, echoing the silky sap, the nectar of a milky fig.

When the plump, sensual fruit joins with the fig leaf, the fragrance unfolds with profound intensity.

Jean Claude Ellena for Perris

Lavender is emblematic of Provence. It was the Romans who introduced the herb in the region they referred to as ‘Provincia Romana’.

Perris are celebrating lavender in a regal way in their Lavande Romaine/ ‘Romans’ Lavender'. It’s a rich, herbaceous perfume with a juicy green note of blackcurrant.

Perfumer's note on the fragrance concept:

"As a perfumer, I love the strength of these landscapes and the beauty of the lavender fields where flocks of blue butterflies float in the air. To bring this scene to life, I composed Lavande Romaine, a joyful fragrance that dances and sings a summer tune."

About Miss Dior Essence by Dior

How does Miss Dior Essence compare to these fragrances?
Miss Dior Essence balances a chypre floral structure with blackcurrant and jasmine at its core, supported by sandalwood and oak for a smooth woody finish. The fragrances listed here share the blackcurrant note but vary in additional accords such as smoky, powdery, fresh, or sweet elements, resulting in different overall characters.
What makes a chypre floral fragrance distinctive?
Chypre floral fragrances combine citrus or fruity top notes with a heart of floral accords, resting on a base of oakmoss, woody or resinous notes. This creates a balanced contrast between freshness, florality and earthy or woody depth.
Are all these fragrances suitable for both day and evening wear?
Most of the fragrances here can transition from day to evening, though those with smoky, leathery or resinous notes tend to be more suited to evening wear, while fresher or powdery scents lean towards daytime use.
