Pros & Cons
- ✅ Beautiful green floral chypre! I love the 'misty' feel of this.
- ✅ This is what 'old money' smells like. Creamy white floral on a base of dusty moss.
- ✅ I worship this perfume, at least in its 1990s formulation which is the one that my mother handed down to me.
- ❌ I need somebody to educate me on the Miss Dior fragrance family because I just don't get it.
- ❌ I don't get on with leather in perfumes.
- ❌ This old Miss Dior is a crisp green blast from the past and she demands that her wearer is a Dame with character... Sadly, she no longer appeals to today's market.
