SAVOIRFAIRE

Since it was founded, the House of

Parfums Christian Dior has always

demonstrated intense creativity

combined with expert savoir-faire. As

such, the area around Grasse, loved so

dearly by Christian Dior, is still today

more than ever a precious terroir for the

composition of Dior fragrances.

ICONIC PRODUCTS

An absolute classic in the world of fine

perfumery, J’adore expresses all the

sensual intensity and solar energy of a

Dior woman. Its signature floral scent

celebrates the expressiveness of Damask

Rose and Tunisian Orange Blossom,

enhanced by heady notes of Comoros

Ylang-Ylang. J'adore embodies the

couturier-perfumer’s dream of harmony.

FILM

After the launch of Black Opium Nuit Blanche

by YSL and Poison Girl by Dior, we can clearly

figure out that perfumes manufacturers have

found their new target: the millenials young

girl looking for a bold, seducing and

gourmand fragrance accompanied by an

immersive experience

A NEW FRAGRANCE A NEW SPOKEPERSON THE TRIBE

A NEW GLOBAL

EXPERIENCE

February is the month of love, but it is also an

interesting month for new perfumes launch: a great

opportunity for iconic luxury brands to reveal their

women-oriented fragrances.

Logically, Dior released its new Poison perfume with a

dedicated communication campaign: trailer, release

party, street-marketing (St-Lazare), digital

activation…

After Midnight Poison, Dior opens a new story with

Poison Girl, and has decided to target urban,

nocturne and sexy girls.

The viral film was shot in New-York with the

participation of Camille Rowe, the new Poison Girl

Egerie. We are immersed in a crazy and decadent

atmosphere strewed with numerous millenials codes:

party, alcohol, nudity… fasten your seat belt!

▪ Develop new product-extension such as make-up building on franchise equity

▪ Be careful with the Dior brand image in developing new products
