Dior’s Sauvage Eau Forte is not what I expected
Are you looking for a last minute gift for the masculine fragrance lover who already has it all? Or perhaps they don’t have it all, just a bottle of Dior Sauvage. Even still, can I recommend Sauvage Eau Forte? Yes, I know, “But it’s just Sauvage.” It’s not. It’s different let me explain. Sauvage is…

A little bit of Dior’s Hyalushot, and a little expert advice
I had been using the Dior Hyalushot and noticed that it was behaving weirdly. It was getting gummy and stringy. I chalked it up to being a bad product. And then I signed for a one-on-one consultation with a Dior virtual advisor. “How much are you applying?” She was horrified to learn that I had…

How much should a Dior bag cost?
“Did you hear? Dior bags only cost $57 to make.” There were whispers after an expose revealed the conditions an Italian factory used by Dior and other brands for their leather good production. The allegations of worker abuse and low wages. Dior has come out and said that it does not produce their purses there,…

The Dior Lip Oil is genuinely good
Sigh, I hate when products go viral. Mostly because, I have this thing about not wanting to appear to be just going with the crowd. But I have to admit, the Dior Lip Oil is popular for a reason. As someone who is perpetually on the hunt for products for my perpetually dry lips, I…

Rihanna is the new face of J’Adore
It has happened. Rihanna will be the new face of J’Adore by Dior. Previously the role was occupied by Charlize Theron for 20 years. (That is absolutely wild to me.) The new ad campaigns won’t be out until September. Maybe I will cover those then, but let’s take this in another direction. I wonder not…

A fragrance memory
I remember it well. I was in high school and had received a bottle of Victoria’s Secret body lotion in the scent Rapture. It was a throwaway gift, one I imagine the giver didn’t think much of. But I wore it, as I dressed myself up as much as I did as a teenager and…

I tried Dior’s Le Nectar. Here are my thoughts
I had high hopes for Dior’s Prestige Le Nectar Premier. I mean, if you call something nectar, I am imagining it would something heavenly. Maybe also sticky, juicy, plumping, godly. I chose not to look up the intended benefits, so I didn’t know what to expect exactly, but I was expecting a lot. The product…

Do you remember that fragrance ad from Emily in Paris?
In an episode of Emily in Paris, Sexy or Sexist, we see the team at odds on how a client’s new fragrance should be advertised to women. They want to communicate that the fragrance is for powerful women comfortable in their femininity. The client asserts that a naked woman will do the trick, while Emily…

A quick review of Dior’s New look
If I were to describe New Look by Dior, I would say it smells like purple. My first thoughts were that it was maybe a spiced fruit, maybe a watered down ginger. No. Reading the fragrance notes it is actually aldehyde and amber. I get that. Yeah, that makes sense. That bit of sharpness could…

Baby Dior scent coming soon
Dior is expanding its fragrance offering to include babies, or rather their parents. Their Bonne Etoile offering will be a fragrant mist/scent water mean to be sprayed in the air and on fabrics, not directly onto your child. The fragrance bottles offer the same scent in two different colors, possibly making them a luxurious gift…
