What do reviewers say about Diorama and Quadrille?
This is the vintage Dior that collectors chase. Animalic, powdery, and built on a foundation of civet and oakmoss that modern perfumery almost never attempts anymore.Diorama
Quadrille announces itself in warm spice and powder, then settles into something that stays. The combination of fruity brightness and deep, warm base notes creates a fragrance that feels both.Quadrille
