Community Verdict
Pros & Cons
- ✅ the GOAT. Shame on MFK for reformulating (killing) this legend.
- ✅ This is cinema. Bought it at a duty free a week before it was discontinued and it is now maybe my favourite scent oat.
- ✅ Masterpiece. There are no others that come close.
- ✅ Dior Homme Parfum is not a fragrance for everyone... but in the right setting, it is absolutely phenomenal.
- ✅ A unique and artistic scent profile unlike anything else.
- ✅ Exceptional, best-in-class longevity and performance.
- ✅ The epitome of luxury and sophistication in a bottle.
- ✅ Considered a modern masterpiece by the fragrance community.
- ✅ A little goes a very long way, making the bottle last for years.
- ❌ smells like straight up makeup to me… and I cant understand why I or any male would want to smell like makeup…
- ❌ For me this sample was a learning lesson... it is so cloyingly powdery... I really wanted to like this, but instead it taught me to fear the iris
- ❌ Too dense and overpowering... I eventually sold my bottle.
- ❌ I bought and sold this twice, too harsh for me and it was hard to find a situation to wear it
- ❌ Limited versatility; strictly for cold weather and formal occasions.
- ❌ The prominent 'lipstick' iris note can be polarizing for some.
- ❌ Difficult to find in some markets, particularly North America.
- ❌ Premium price point, although justified by quality.
