The 8 Best Dior Perfumes Of All Time Smell So Filthy Rich

While there are four iterations of Miss Dior, the latest one—a special rendition created by the brand’s Perfume Creation Director Francis Kurkdijan—is just a hint more sophisticated than its predecessors. Don’t get me wrong: it still has the sweet floral heart for which it’s famous. But you’ll also get a sensual woody base that previous iterations lacked. Every time I spray this Natalie Portman-approved fragrance, I’m instantly transported into a field of berries; there’s a sweetness mixed with the brightness of a sunny summer day.

Whenever I want to cosplay a rich woman who both frequents Paris and owns a vast collection of Hèrmes Kellys, I reach for this fragrance. It’s so sophisticated and sexy. I swear simply being in the presence of this fragrance makes me feel like bank account has an extra zero, I grew five inches, and I'm the type of girl to never trip in heels. Despite the floral flavor profile (orange, rose, and jasmine), this fragrance feels remarkably warm and cozy. Plus, nothing makes me happier than knowing Rihanna and I share one of the same fragrances.

Notes: Orange blossom, damascena rose, grandiflorum jasmine

What I Love: Smells very elevated for the price point; Bottle is gorgeous and unique; This is a very unoffensive scent and will be pleasing to almost everyone

What I Don’t: It’s more of a seductive fall or winter scent than something you would want to wear in the summer

I imagine every incredibly hot man (think: Chris Hemsworth to Timothée Chalamet) keeps this very specific scent in their fragrance collection and sprays it on thick when they're about to drink gin on the rocks in a room with a velvet couch. It’s masculine without being too musky and has an undeniable sex appeal. Still, it is a unisex scent (and one of my go-tos for a night out). You can expect a heavy front of amber that settles into a skin-like base and leaves a touch of warm rose in its wake.

Notes: Amber, damascus rose

What I Love: Unisex; Sex appeal; Great for a date night or night out; Addictive quality

What I Don’t: I wouldn’t personally want to wear this during the day time—it’s a bit too moody for that

I’ve already gone through three whole bottles of Dioriviera—that’s how much I love it. For context, fig is my favorite note in a fragrance; it’s light and fresh with a fruity twist that makes my skin smell sweet and yummy. It’s become my signature scent in the summer, and I quite literally douse myself in the Mediteranean-inspired juice; there’s no such thing as overdoing it with this airy, solar blend. My pro tip: Prime your wrists with a little Vaseline to make the scent last longer.

Notes: Fig, rose

What I Love: Very light; Rose is a note, but it’s not overwhelming—in fact, I didn’t even realize this fragrance included rose until I looked at the description

What I Don’t: It doesn’t last incredibly long on the skin, so I end going through the bottle faster

Marie Claire Beauty Director Hannah Baxter was on the ground in LA when this latest Dior release hit the shelves, and after wear-testing it for the past few weeks, she is officially obsessed. "This is a more intense (hence the name) version of the classic Dior J'adore, with Rihanna as the face most notably. This smells like the equivalent of trading your wool jacket for a ultra soft mink fur. It's so luxe, heady, and enveloping for all your senses. You get those top notes of jasmine and rose, plus a warm honied heart of ylang-ylang. It's enveloping in the past way, and a true beast-mode scent."

Notes: Ylang-ylang, rose, jasmine

What I Love: Long-lasting, warm, rich, sexy, expensive-smelling

What I Don’t: The classic J'adore Dior scent is there but you need to let it sit before taking a deep whiff.
