No longer in Dior Boutiques, but Neiman Marcus was the last known retailer in the states to carry this fragrance. To my memory, it was smooth, faintly creamed and very fresh with a bite. I regret not getting it when I saw it. It still stands out as one of the best scents in the "clean class" my nose has ever captured. Although titled "Cologne", it is an Eau de Parfum with moderate projection and over average longevity.
Starts with a light almond, orange, mild lime and pinch of mint opening. The mint note is based on real mint leaf and is slightly bitter, very nice and lightly green - not the typical mentholated, cold, synthetic, transparent type. The fragrance opens fresh but softens and warms up after a half hour. It turns creamy and just lightly (white musk) powdery a few minutes after that but the buttery almond and fresh orange manage to stay on top. As the orange begins to fade the orange blossom and rosemary become more prominent paired with the creamy almond note. The fresh mint leaf is only slightly noticeable an hour into the fragrance and that is pretty much where the fragrance stays for a few hours until it becomes a close to the skin, velvet smooth scent.
Even though it's a cologne it projects an even foot or two - quite softly. It leaves a light scent trail. It lasts around four hours in projection mode and another four closer to the skin. This is literally one of those fragrances that is like putting on an article of clothing. When somone is near you they sense it but are not overpowered by it.
A very nice elegant cologne, very comfortable and natural. Really lives up to the blanche moniker. Definitely worth testing if you are looking for a fresh, creamy and lightly warm scent that doesn't project too much.

Is this fragrance discontinued?
A nice enough cologne, but nothing special; a clean citrus opening, with a bit more depth than some, but not full bottle worthy for me.
