Addict To Life Dior for women

I love this scent. It's fresh flowers cut right from the garden. There may be just the slightest hint of fruit, but this is predominately a floral scent filled with rich rose, and lily of the valley, and sweet jasmine. The mixture is exquisite!
This is one of those perfumes that you will either love or hate. It is very unique, and the sillage is quite strong, especially for an EDT.
You will definately make a statement when you enter a room, as well as be remembered when you leave that room.

I have been graciously gifted a mini by Cakes and Cuddles: it is sublime! I find the fresh floral spiciness and light fruit notes to be intoxicating. A lovely fruity-floral to add to my collection.. This addict and I need to be further acquainted though: shall edit! thanx Cakes, little sis, luv ya!

I'm surprised with the comments below, I disagree completely. Dior addict to life is unique and unforgettable in my opinion, and i'm totally in love with its clean, fresh and fruity notes. After a while its a little soapy, like just-out-of-bath, but with an elegant tone!! One of my favorites now!

Nothing in common with classic Dior Addict, disapointed

Addict to Life smells life Forever & Ever but F&E is less sharp. It's soft floral with no fruits. A drydown is soft musk. This is pretty but I prefer F&E.

Another successful perfume from Dior! It is a very unique fragrance. It is cozy, sweet, and elegant! It is wearable in autumn and winter! I am looking forward to have it! Cannot wait!

I can`t get myself to like this. I really wanted to because I like the original Addict and I think it really is addictive.
Addict to life is mainly floral. I get lily of the valley the most. I got something refreshing, citrus-like, so maybe that was pomegranate (I didn`t recognice it, even though I love pomegranate). The combination is something like dusty flowers (not fresh flowers) and something "airfreshener" bright.
The dry down again was more pleasant, but to me not worth it.

This is best for daytime use. It has 5/10 silage IMO. It is a light fruity floral. I detect the raspberry, "pomegranate" note and the lily-of-the valley, rose and jasmine. To me there is not enough clean musk (I love clean soapy and white musk scents. This is ok, but not memorable or distinctive enough to warrant a full bottle. After an hour, I find it is kind of giving me a headache too. Meh.

I smell only lily of the valley. It's similar to Diorissimo, but better fragrance for me, although there is almost no sillage.

Lots of chemical rose.kind of aquatic.It is sharp from the first sniff to the last and it has no depth.Unforunately, my nostrils got tired after one hour smelling the same unevolving substance.A bad copy of YSL Paris.

no lasting power on me.Watery version of Omnia amethyst with some kind of watery jasmine.The worst from the Addict line

I am not really a rose-lover and I am not much into such kind of perfumes. But there is something with Addict to Life that I really like. Its not a masterpiece neither head-turner. Maybe its even boring like others mentioned. However, its just so simple and elegant and you can wear it whenever you get tired of the heavier stuff. I love its simplicity with all the flowers and I will get it one day :)

Add: the longevity is amazing..

I get sweet fruity,soft lily of the valley,and a powdery rose impression. It can be addictive.

Very fresh scent. Young and inoffensive rose. Forgettable. Lasts on my skin for quite a long time (considering it's EDT). Overall, a nice fragrance but nothing special.

I got it and f*cking in love with it !!!!!! All of my firends love it and i got so many compliments !!!!!! <3 Fresh and fun, sweet and sexy <3

all i smell is rose, rose, and rose. The rose notes is pretty dominant to me.
This is not a bad fragrance, but I expected something more unique and special from Dior, not just a classic bouquet of roses

I want it sooooo baaaddddddd !! It smells very very goooood not tooooo sweet but modern and elegance. When i smelled it i know this gonna be my first official perfume <3 <3

I tend to like fresh fragrances with a touch of a sweet note which this scent does not really have but I love its different notes. Throughout the day the scent changes very subtly but I like it at all of its stages. My clothes still smelled like it and whenever I got a whiff of them the scent just made me happy without really realizing it. Also, fantastic longevity on me.

Dior Addict to Life is a young, light, feminine rose scent. Beautiful blooming rose, sweet jasmine, and soft lilac with a dry down to a soft white musk. Addict to Life is a bouquet of fresh roses. Gorgeous fragrance!

I work retail and Addict to Life has been discontinued. Maybe reformulated and repackaged in the future but for now it's gone.

Absolutely a keeper for me. Yummy

Smells like a mixture of dior addict 2 and dior forever and ever.

Also want to add that when I finish off this bottle, I likely won't purchase it again. A pretty scent, but very forgettable.

This isn't something that I love. I like this perfume. However, nothing stands out about it.

On me, the scent is clean, light, fresh, and a little sweet. It doesn't last long and is a great scent to wear if you work in an office environment and don't want to offend others. A few of the girls at work really love this fragrance on me. While it's not my favorite, it's my go-to perfume for work or just a lazy Sunday at home.

I find myself reaching for this on the mornings I just don't know what to wear. It doesn't evoke a mood or attitude.

This is definitely a spring/summer, day time scent.

As with everything Dior...I really wanted to like this...it's ok, but it is not very interesting to me and it doesn't last. Too much floral.

♥♥♥♥♥

sorry guys, but i really don't like it!!!

To me there is no sweetness with this newest of the Addict family. I will say the first thing that came to my nose was a certain body shop white musk feel. I don't love it nor do I dislike it however, this is very likeable. A good option for anti-perfume work offices because this cutie doesn't leave any headache inducing sillage. My vote is : I would not mine having this as a gift,or using it for a quick out of a shower clean musk with a dab of spring blooming flowers soap scent. Pretty that's all this is.

amooooooooooooooooooo este perfume es totalllllmente esplendidoooooooooo y es totalmente yoooooooo

For me the strongest note is rose and after a while musk

I really think the most apparent note is Lilac...? I like it!

YES, as most people mention in here, I think it is easily forgettable, but I still like it, why?
it is a fragrance that you can use it daily- starts with intensely floral then - at least on my skin- it becomes soapy and powdery- a clean and sweet smell, which I like for my every day- daily wear. The bottle with its purple color is attractive and the department store had a special sale with dior brand and I said ' why not go with it? ' If you like little bit sweet, soapy and powdery smells, go with it, you ll like it.

"Shimmering, vibrant, indefinable, unique and unforgettable?" Oh brother. To me, Dior ADDICT TO LIFE smells nothing like its namesake and a lot like other Dior flankers such as MISS DIOR CHERIE L'EAU. Why do I get the feeling that these CLEANish fruity-floral frags are all being sourced from the very same vat, with maybe a few tweaks here and there?

The opening is somewhat appealing, but from there everything goes downhill to that ever-expanding "indefinable" juice which becomes louder and more "hygienic", for lack of a better term, over time. I hold LVMH ultimately responsible, but it's obvious that they are being guided by marketing data, and apparently a lot of people out there really are looking to smell like my kitchen upon opening the dishwasher mid-cycle. Not for me.

Very flowery and old fashioned smelling to me. Smells like lotions and shower gel from crabtree and evelyn. Maybe a mixture of rose water and summer hill? Reminds me of how my grandma and mom smell since they both use that stuff. It's nice, pleasant, and induces some nostalgia for me.

I agree that the lily of the valley note or lilac is very strong in this. (I'm confused which one is in here since the descriptions vary place to place.) I think it is the main note of the entire composition with rose as a close second.

This has a nice fresh and causal spin on Addict. Not sure if we really need that though. While easy to enjoy, the scent it breaks no new ground, doesn't really thrill and just fills space. Not a disappointment but not clear why. So, why?

This is a big NO for me. Too much lily of the valley here. My skin is not a fan of that note and I just cannot tolerate this one at all. I will stick to my good friend Addict!

I'm not a fan of this one, possibly because fruity notes don't sit well with me. This is a very strong fragrance that doesn't come off on me it really amplified to a nauseating smell, like one you get from walking into a bath and body retailer where there is just too much.

HOWEVER, if you're a fan of Nina Ricci or DKNY be delicious I can imagine you'd like this one.

Addict To Life is a regular rosy-fruity scent, so easily forgettable ... A discreet office-scent.
I'd rather wear nothing than this. There is absolutely nothing interesting about this fragrance.

Plus for staying power, but the sillage is weak.

I wouldn't be so disappointed if it was launched by a different house.
But Dior?
Come on!

I can smell lilacs, rose and a little powder, nice scent but I wouldn´t pay full price for it.

Dior addict to life on of those powdery scents, I really recommended this to anyone out there who loves powdery perfumes ...about me i don't find my expectation .

From Dior's website:

An encounter between sparkling rose, vibrant jasmine, lilac and white musk.

I have a sample of this and I'm wearing it today layered over BB&W Paris Amour lotion.

This fragrance is definitely sparkling! I think it is a must for springtime with the sweet rose, powdery lilac, and heady jasmine notes. This is a fresh, soft, and feminine daytime scent.

Nice job Dior!

After smelling numerous recent releases at the Duty Free... Addict to Life is the one that made its way back home with me! It comes in an absolutely stunning light purple bottle that would make any perfume lover's vanity happy. I know some people are worried this is going to be too fruity for them, to me its not at all, its a very sensual fragrance with rose dominating the entire composition. It bears no similarities to the original Addict, but it still deserves a sniff for being what it is.

I was very curious to sample this because notes sounded so fabulous(especially top notes). As soon as I sprayed it however, I immediately thought"I've smelled it before" and it didn't take me long to figure this out. It smells VERY simular to Omnia Amethyste which I tried before. Just to make sure I wasn't losing my mind, I tried Omnia Amethyste on my other hand-while its not identical, its very close. I don't get any top fruity notes at all-its light delicate floral, all about rose and lily of the valley, and just like Omnia Amethyste, it doesn't project well, has no silliage and no lasting power(within 40 min I couldn't even smell it). Its a nice scent but not anything different from many other fragrances.

I totally agree with Flora Lee...I have the same problem that you have with Pure Poison and Cherie...I just tried Addict to life today and I'm really liking it. To me, is more flowery than fruity. Im enjoying this scent a lot.

According to the notes, I SHOULD like it.. But actually, I do not so much. It reminds me a lot of my friends mom's in elementary school for some reason. Maybe because they probably all wore CK's Eternity..? I don't know, it gives me a bit of a cold atmosfere. Not head over heels, sorry :(

This is a very nice, pretty, fresh scent...definitely no similarities to the original Addict fragrance (which I would describe as intensely dark, spicy and rich). Addict to Life is crisp and not overly sweet. Mostly floral but I do get the sense of some crisp fruits in there as well. I would say it's along the same lines as the DKNY Be Delicious series, particularly the Fresh Blossom edition. It's nice, but not anything terribly different that I would feel the need to add to my collection.

I see the description from Dior.com. Its compositions are jasmine in the top note then rose and musk. No fruits at all.

I sampled this yesterday and instantly liked it a lot. After drydown I frankly started to love it.

The musk is a white musk and it is soft and gentle. the fruits to my nose arent burstingly ripe and sweet more just there, like the taste of a peach rather than the smell.. The florals are gentle and clean.Also the fragrance reminded me of high end cosmetics, a bit like Dior mascaras, I really liked it, maybe it is the sandalwood.

I found this to be a masterful balance or beautiful delicate components and the fragrance lasted very well on my wrist from 3pm till 10 when I showered.

First Dior that wears well on me - I love Pure Poison and Miss Dior Cherie but they don't love me, in both a strong uncomfortable base note crashes in and strikes a wrong chord. Not so with Addict to Life, which is a beautiful breezy floral with a new rosy floral accord. The pomegranate, rose and lilac facets reflect each other so well in this scent, which is held up by jasmine and a fresh musk. Thankfully I don't get any cedar but maybe a slightly green woodiness more like sandalwood that is helping to round out this scent. How it fits in with other Addict releases I don't really sense, but I don't mind the cute purple Addict bottle.

Edit after wearing in summer heat: It did feel different when it was heated up and I was walking in hot summer sun - a sweet raspberry candy and a hot musk were definitely there! This may need to be a cooler season perfume for me.

i love original addict.
addict to life smells nice, fruity, rosy and rasberry-ey..it smells just like any other clone chewing gum fragrance on the market. i am not entirely sure why Dior decided to do it. it has been created so many times already, interpreted by so many houses..very pink smelling frag, quite disappointing if you, like me, are a fan of stronger and more complex juices, a big win if you love fruity florals..
not impressed

i love this! the right amount of sweet floral/fruity/musky. and the bottle is beautiful! i waaaay prefer this to dior addict 2 or the original dior addict. so much better! <3

This wasn't at all what I expected but looking at the description "a fragrance that focuses on sparkling and intense rose" - that's exactly what it is.

I think rose lovers will love this. An elegant, bright, sparkling rose. I don't get any fruity notes and if they are there they are so fleeting they're undetectable to my nose. Quite linear for about 4 hours then a soft musk joins the rose.

It has all the expected quality of a Dior perfume and reminds me of Dior Forever and Ever, not the same but in style. Not for me - too pure maybe - but beautiful all the same.

Longevity and sillage are quite amazing for an EDT!

Very floral and very musky and soapy. I didn't get much of the fruit notes at the top. Very different from the original but I suppose that's good - what's the point in creating a new fragrance if it's going to be similar to one that already exists?

PEOPLE! They are not stopping the original Dior addict! They changed the box actually. So relax!!! This is a completely new fragrance and not a replacement ! Thank you

seems it has nothing to do with the original Dior ADDICT ! it will be a great disappointment and tragedy to me if they do discontinued the old one !!!

It will be a tragedy if Dior does in fact discontinue the original Dior Addict to replace it with this fragrance. While Dior Addict To Life is not a bad fragrance, it certainly doesn't have the sensuality and the allure that Dior Addict has.

It's quite a fruity fragrance, being rather heavy with the pomegranate and raspberry accords. At times it smells sweet, slightly girlish too. It's not a sexy scent, rather it feels innocent and reserved.

The pomegranate note is so dominant throughout the composition that even the white floral heart of jasmine, rose and lily of the valley has a rich and tarty finish. I don't know whether I like this or not. It smells a little nauseating on my skin.

The drydown is rather clean-smelling, soapy almost with only the subtlest hint of powdery vanilla and musk. Dior Addict To Life is pretty, but for me personally, it's a little boring. The strong berries and pomegranate notes annoy me after awhile, and I keep shaking my head thinking how Dior could replace one of the best sensual vanillas I've tried with something like this.

The lasting power I must admit is impressive, lasting almost a whole day. I think if anything, Dior Addict To Life is closer in composition to Dior Addict 2, which was a fruity fragrance I couldn't quite stomach.

:: update ::

Just had the chance to try this and after 2 days of trial ( on skin and tester card of course!) I can say that I was not really impressed of Addict To Life Dior (ATL). This is totally different than original Addict, it's a fresh - floral musky fragrance for your information. The introduction from peach, raspberry and pomegranate are really nice. On my skin the floral notes quickly took over the intro part and they lingered for 4-5 hours before the base notes appear. Thank God I didn't get sickeningly sweet notes like other fruity floral fragrances. Don't expect u will get sweet candy/caramel or huge blast of fruit cocktail in your face.

Longevity: Good, I could still smell it on my arms ( it's almost 10 hours now ).

Sillage: Pretty nice, especially during first 4-5 hours before it silenced down a bit.

Best for: Casual, Office, Everyday. Summer & spring.



I really recommended this to anyone out there who prefer fresh-floral-musky fragrance in elegant or sophisticated way. To me ATL is nice but that's it. Not my cup of tea really. In fact nothing's so special about ATL that can make me wanting it so badly, this kind of smell is too common for my nose (which I can smell it anywhere). But the again, everyone's taste and skin is different. For a fresh-floral musky fragrance lover,you must try this!

As for me, I will stick to my Bvlgari Au The Blanc ;-)

Since the original addict, I haven't liked the others, the bottle looks beautiful and I hope it smells great, if it does I will buy it!

is the original addict discontinued?I hope not! :(

As a loyal user of original Addict, i hope this is not another fruity version of it like Addict 2 and Addict Shine which we already have in the market (and among all other fruity smelling fragrances as well).
