Dior Jasmin des Prés (or Maison Christian Dior Blanche)
In this review
Within the prestigious Maison Christian Dior collection (formerly La Collection Privée), Jasmin des Anges stands as a tribute to the jasmine fields of Grasse during the late summer months. Released in 2018, this fragrance represents a departure from the heavy, indolic jasmine scents of the past, opting instead for a sun-drenched, gourmand-leaning interpretation. It is a fragrance that prioritizes transparency and light over the dense animalic notes often associated with white florals.
As a reporter for Vivir.com, I have tracked the evolution of the Maison Christian Dior line since its inception. Jasmin des Anges, composed by François Demachy, reflects a specific moment in the brand's history—a pivot toward approachable luxury that maintains the technical excellence of haute parfumerie. This report examines the composition, performance, and market standing of what has become one of the collection's most enduring floral offerings.

Scent Journey
1
Opening 0-30 min
The fragrance opens with a sharp, clean burst of Bergamot that immediately gives way to a jammy, honeyed apricot note. It is bright and uplifting, lacking any sharp alcohol edges.
2
Heart 1-2 hrs
The heart reveals the core jasmine note, which is notably clean and dewy. The presence of osmanthus and peach creates a 'lactonic' or creamy fruit texture that softens the floral edges.
3
Drydown 4+ hrs
After several hours, the fruitiness recedes into a soft, powdery base of white musk and a hint of sheer vanilla. The scent remains clean and skin-like until it disappears.
