Real talk
The sillage is not subtle. People will smell you before they see you. That's not a warning, it's the point. Classique is for the woman who walks into a room and changes the air in it.Classique
This is classic Dior at its most grounded. No gimmicks, just a well-constructed rose that behaves like a proper luxury fragrance should. The drydown is where it earns its price tag.La Colle Noire
