Real talk
In 1994, Dior's Pierre Bourdon built this for someone who wants warmth without sacrificing elegance. The fruit-spice combo is distinctive, not safe. Sweet enough to make you smell good.Dolce Vita
The coffee-pepper heart is what separates this from every other berry-rose. Sweet enough to flirt, with a drydown that means business. The contrast between the bright opening and the darker heart.Balkis
