Dior Addict by Dior

Sissi

In a Sparse Red Ochre room filled with Incense. with only
a small window without glass a Gujarat
rug on the wooden floor Faint white handprints covers over the room the Gujarat sunset shines thought the small
window and Luminates the whole room
with a eathiral Red Glow and the sounds
of a woman singing sweetly to the Verses
of her Lord accompinied with the gentile
sounds Of the Sitar. this perfume gives me that vibes i can pick up some incense.

I can really pick up a cinnamon note in this fragrance. Not quite sure why, since its not in the notes but i guess what im really smelling is the combo of sandalwood,vanilla and tonkabean. Love it.

Dior addict is a head-turner. So sultry, so sexy, yet not too loud.
At first orange blossom and jasmine are most prominent on my skin and I am not a fan of these notes. But it settles down in 10 minutes and becomes perfectly balanced. Subtly sweet-powdery, very oriental. Night only. Thumbs up from me.

I love Dior Addict. A friend gave me a little bottle of this perfume for Christmas in 2002, the year that it was released, and I've still got it.

The vanilla is the headliner in this perfume, and it's warm and sexy without being overly sweet. The spiciness of Addict is quite heady- if you favor spicy Orientals, then this one is for you. Addict has an almost smoky, incense-like quality, and blended with the florals and the vanilla, it reminds me a little bit of Guerlain's Shalimar.

Addict is wonderful for cold weather and evening wear, but go easy- this is a strong perfume, so it's best to use a light touch when applying this fragrance.

based on all the great reviews here, I went and tried it on today... First it smelled good and very unusuall, but after few minutes it started to smell to sweet for me - like a very sweet medicine. Found myself trying to wash it off, but have to admit that the lasting power is great - I can still smell it after washing my arm 2 times

Teebird

Orangepoppy said it! This IS one "smokin' fragrance. It makes my husband go wild for me. ;-)
I don't get much of the floral notes from this--more of an unusual(and yes, edgy) woody,sexy sandalwood on me. (the body lotion alone is nice, as well, and long-lasting)

SPECTACULAR!!!!!!

Looking for a unique oriental, a refined vanilla, a burning incense or a floral with attitude? Look no further Dior Addict is all of the above and more.

The scent itself is heavy but the formula light to wear. A dark edgy bottle, polished and sharp. A brilliant Dior creation.

This was one of the first perfumes I bought when I started earning my own money, it was so delicious to me I thought Id never stop loving it, well eventually i kind of did and swapped what I had away. I guess i got into niche perfumes and alot of my department store stuff kind of lost its appeal to me for a while. However I can say that Dior Addict is a one of a kind, strong sexy scent that you can smell and tell what it is a mile away. Defeinetely not for the shy wallflowers, one spray of this is really enough it is quite strong. its like an oriental vanilla, but theres spicy almost salty notes in it that lift it above other oriental vanillas. Its a very distinct smell. Anyway i still appreciate it for what it is and i dont hate it, but i just kind of got over it a bit. I recently tried Eau Fraiche in this scent and itsa bit lighter so i think im liking this more right now.

Ofeliarage

ABSOLUTELY ADORE THIS!
am ADDITed to this stuff!
Its just there is something so powerful & mesmerising about this but it can be quite restrictive to evening & nights.

This is definately a heavy oriental but dont be afraid, the strong initial blast(which is gorgeous) is reduced by the seducing aromatic vanilla creeping up, getting higher & higher, while a transparent smoke has surrounded you entirely.
This is y it is my N*1 & may it continue.

Jura-kg

This perfume is like some kind of medical staff.When i first sprayed it it was like i am in heaven! ! !this one really hooked me! ! !Thank's to my brother i got this one.

Annica

To my disappointment this didn´t go well with my bodychemistry. There was an acrid note in the base that completely took over, and it didn´t appeal to me, it was like bitter almond. I have smelled this fragrance on others and it was different.

guest_alexanna7

Will add this one on my oriental vanilla.cause of orange flower rose and vanilla.and base on the reviews.must have a dior frag they are the best in frag world!

Shyn's Release

What a sexy fragrance its a warm oriental.Alittle goes a real long way use sparingly.

lucifera

i've been wanting this for a while and got it as a christmas gift,im very happy i got this because it has great lasting power and is heavy enough for me ;)no way its sickening or so,noo this is very seducive and sexy stuff
smells divine and it loove the vanille tonka drydown,really worth buying!

kastehelmi

This smells beautiful-but not rare. This is so commonplace I would carefully choose occasions for wearing Addict out. When Addict first came out, before I was at all into perfume, I scoffed at the name and the advertisement. I still don't like the ad, but I appreciate edgy names, even if it is a bit too obvious. It's in the same line of Poison and the such, only it smells better than any other Dior I can think of....

Addict has a somewhat narcotic quality as a fragrance-not as a very addictive fragrance, but as a social serum, pleasant, but overindulged-offering a sweetness that vacillates between delicious and cloying-The incense is more present than in most other designer fragrances, and melds beautifully with the blackberry-The vanilla becomes mundane, but it warms so much on the skin that the trace remains welcome. I love Addict, but I'm absolutely not in love with it.

Addict smells superb on the right skin, on the people it fits, and I think it fits me too. But even if I'm the only one wearing this, I still have a certain association with smelling this on enough of the wrong people amidst the addicted crowd....

azuriiita

I am agree with arance. Its very appropriate to use at sea. Alluring and very feminine... one of several "salty" fragrances for my nose.

zvoncica

I am absolutely terrified and frightened from Addict. I stay away from it like vampires fear from sun. It is intense, strong and unusual. I think it’s the combination of flowers with tonka bean which makes my mind spin and swell. But only when it is applied on my skin

I have a friend, dark haired, skinny, always in leather jacket and jeans. She wears Addict permanently. Every single note fits her perfectly. This dark, mighty and tough perfume becomes sensual, warm and seductive. When I sit next to her I have sensations of whisky and cigarette smoke in my nostrils. And blackberries which laid in leather pocket for an eternity. To me she smells like Moulin Rouge dancer. Amazing.

Nicole79

I tested Addict today...hmmm...I really like it ! On my skin I feel the flowers and the vanila. It's smoky, i feel incense ?! It's sweet but not too sweet, warm, not strong, like i can barely feel it...so no it's not a heavy scent at all. It is very velvety. love it ;)

chanteuse

Perfumes are typically over-priced in my country. A 100ml bottle of this stuff costs around 174.00 US dollars. I gave it a try anyway and then out of the blue wondered at an arbitary moment in time, what smells so good?only to discover that it was me. It is an old fashioned perfume in that it is composed heavily of its fixative - vanilla, so that the lasting power increases and the silage intensifies, although it is not such a lethal dose as in Hypnotic Poison, which can really smell poisonous. In this one, Wasser maintained an elegance that is lacking in alot of deep, dark vanillic creations. The pictures in the advertising look cheap and very 80s but perhaps this was actually meant to say retro, very much like Addict itself, which is a modern take on a perfume composed within an age old culture of excellence.

HAZELORBS

When I first sprayed this on, I was hit with a sharp citrus smell, more acidic than fresh, which was intriguing. Within five minutes, that faded the spicy florals started to emerge. Right now, I am definitely smelling the Night Queen Flower with a hint of of the mandarin and vanilla. This is my second day trying this scent, and so far, I'm loving it! Yesterday, I sprayed very little (and only in one spot) and it didn't seem to last as long, so today I tried just a bit more in several pulse points. So far, so good!

Very seductive, sensual, slightly animalistic, edgy yet soft, full of contradictions yet they blend together harmoniously...Queen of the night.

azuriiita

Its very pleasant and seductive.

Not for every day use in my opinion; but neither for "special occasions"... This one its for rarely shiny (moon light) nights with indigo sky.

A furtive queen of night flower in the hair, skin, or dress of a confident woman... waiting for be uncovered by a lover.

Surely, not for everywomen... on the wrong person could be something heavy and overwhelming, almost disgusting, inclusive a bit banal in the bad sense. But in the right one could very distinctive and unforgetable.

The combination of white flowers, tonka, and blackberry its interesting and noticeable in Dior Addict. Very suitable for nights, and humid climates.

sofiapap

I love it.It is so flowery and oriental.I am amazed of night bloomins and orange flower.It is one of my favourite.Long lasting vanilla-based scent.I got my first bottle years ago and i use it now and then.What i realy love is the body lotion.My number one daily-used lotion.So fresh and delightfull that everyone asks me what perfume i wear.They stand speachless whn i
say it is only a body lotion.If you enjoy oriental florals ,please believe me, worth of trying it.

felineluvr

This is absolutely what I would call a sex bomb perfume! Although it is a love it or hate it perfume apparently. I adore it and purchased 2 bottles of the pure perfume...so that should probably last a century or so because it only takes the smallest amount to make a huge impression. It is truly unique and special...but you should definitely try it before you buy it. I hope it is never discontinued as I certainly would cry.

missk

Oh, this is delicious! It's a pity that I didn't find this fragrance sooner.

Like Hypnotic Poison, Dior Addict is a rather potent yet sexy vanilla blend. It's hard not to like such a richly unique and complex scent.

Dior Addict opens with a sultry and smokey vanilla. The blackberry and mandarin leaf notes only compliment the vanilla, they never overpower.

I find this fragrance to have an almost animalistic quality. The scent is sweet, but not sugary sweet, just pleasantly so. I love that this fragrance is dark and mysterious, it's something that would suit a woman in power perhaps even a femme fatal.

The lasting power is amazing and the sillage quite strong. I probably wouldn't wear this as a casual Spring/Summer scent because it just doesn't seem to fit into that category. By all means wear this as a night fragrance or even as a nice, unusual choice for the chilly weather.

Zaleska

Wow! What a good idea, brbryant! Wearing Addict at work! ahahha
And I'm not kidding! I tell you that because I love this perfume and only wore it at evenings, and it's so sad...Addict is a jewel!
But from now on, I'm gonna try to wear it by the light of the day...with extreme caution, I promise. :)

brbryant

This perfume is by far my favorite from Dior. It's got a supple feminine smell that doesn't smell soapy and lasts ALL day long! It's great for night wear when you're going out, if used with extreme caution it can be worn in the office - it is heavy though and could be bothersome to some.
I am always complimented when I wear this.

Migotka

The name says it all here, really!

This is probably the most addictive fragrance ever created, and I can risk saying, one of the best composed things out there on the market. Bold, rich, spicy, strong, you wont be able to hide in the crowd wearing it. It is also one of the rare fragrances that instantly feed your imagination.

If Addict was a woman, it would be a woman who knows exactly what she wants and how to get it. She has the power and will not be afraid to use it.

sofiapap

my best,along with eau fraishe and hypnotic poison from dior.It is the floral sense mixed with vanilla that awakens your senses.It is perfect!!!

ESTM

One of the greatest perfumes.the most women in greece have test the perfect smell of addict.you can match it with whatever you want.the smell of it is sweet and hold for a lot time

Polymath

I receive many compliments when I wear this. It is very like Boucheron's Trouble, and peripherally like the Lolita Lempicka and Angel - that same animal undertone.

Mitsouko

I regard always Addict as uncommon-place smell , but issued , that it not for me. But last time , after next tests, I has been subjected . Addict earned me. Everything in it is noble and sound - beautiful flower orange, noble bourbon, thick vanilla, floral motives. Addict is sweet, but not too sweet, warm, but with certain, elegant distance. It is struck over other perfume, has features niche parfum , but it is not fancy. Beautiful, great oriental smell.

username

I smelled it on my friend in summer and it was horrible, it made me sick and caused me a head ache. but when i smelled it in winter i just loved it.
but it still too sweet for me to use.

TURQUOISE

DIOR ADDICT.. Hmmmm Be careful of it, it can be a real addiction!!!
This magic juice put a spell on me and now I can't live without it! I detect lots of cinnamon-jasmine notes, at the beginning quite heavy but after a while it turns into a beautiful warm oriental floral that makes you feel so sexy and mysterious in a cozy way..
The dry down is pure magic! Believe me!
A must try!

BluDreamer7806

This is sexiness at its best. I love this stuff. I love it! I love it! I love it! I knew I had to have it when I first smelled it years ago. Spray this on sparingly, because it’s packs a whale of a wollop. It’s bold and daring and will knock you back with its intenseness. A good douse of it usually lasts throughout the day. If you want to produce that WOW factor when entering a room or impressing someone, this is definitely your fragrance. It’s sensual, sexy, erotic, exotic and beautiful all at the same time. It grabs you whenever you smell it, very alluring. This will definitely get you noticed. People stop me all the time and ask me what I’m wearing when I’m wearing Dior Addict. The opening burst of fruit has just the right amount of fruitiness. The jasmine, rose and other florals add the perfect amount of flowery goodness, and the dry down is the best part. Mmm, the Tonka bean, vanilla and sandalwood harmonizes beautifully on your skin. Dior Addict is without a doubt a very romantic and intimate fragrance and should only be worn during the nights, very passionate nights. Ideal for the 20 + and over crowd.

sky76sky

I have smelled this on others & enjoyed the heavy waft they left behind, so I bravely tried it out on myself. It is not a 'me' scent, but it is a well thought out heavy oriental fruity/floral - not quite as assaulting as most & the dry-down is really lovely.

At first sniff it wasn't pleasant, almost clinical - I was swiftly transported to the surgery! In a few seconds I was dragged out for a night on the town, drinking a Blackberry Cooler cocktail, wearing high heels, short dress & smoky eyes. Then salsa time, getting spicy-hot on the dance floor....warming up, feeling the glow (the juicy berries are still there, so I must've spilled some cocktail on my purple, satin dress)....I dance for AGES downing spicy vanilla cream drinks....then finally, after hours & hours, I collapse into bed, warm, musky, dizzy, smoky & sugarcoated.

& all that from one, tiny squirt! Powerful stuff, use with care :)

mmizy

I have to say some women just happen to wear this fragrance quite nicely. I however are not one of these women. My love for this fragrance first started when my coworker wore this to work. The smell was lovely I would walk behind her just to get a whiff and asked her what perfume she was wearing. Dior Addict she said and it was her boyfriends favorite fragrance.
I had to try it and so I tested twice the first time I liked it and loved it on the drydown. The second time not at all. The smell too strong.... my nose was being assaulted by spices and sweet vanilla. Like a huge cinnamon roll loaded (overwhelmingly) with cinnamon and spices topped with vanilla frosting. I only sprayed it once on my hand and i would smell it from every angle i turned my nose. The lasting power is incredible. It made my head hurt. And sadly I removed it from my want list beingone of the few that can't wear it.
Update: I still bought a small bottle the .67 oz since it is so strong. Its nice for the cold weather. like it when it dries down.

ktv0926

My feelings towards Dior Addict are almost the same as towards Dior Poison - it is too heavy for me, my head starts spinning a little bit. Besides, Addict has some kind of medicine aftertaste, it is not obvious, but a couple minutes after sniffing i'm left with this impression.

And again, like with ALL heavy orientals - I just love base notes! They are the best - dark and seductive.

Unfortunately, I want to love the fragrances I purchase from the very beginning to the end...

tommy_girl

my first impression is that it's too much to take!at the first sniff you don't even need to get closer to the paper you've sprayed it on to feel this strong perfume.
my BF believes it smells like dentists' places and he hates it,but I think it's a challenging perfume,as I can't name any other one that smells this way.
I don't get much floral note even at the heart of this perfume.it reminds me somehow "ange ou demon".but it's more likely into demon side.I can't say that it's romantic,nor innocent.it's the scent of a powerful,brutal woman.
it's very different from all of later addict editions and the strongest one among all of them
by the way who can deny that it's very long lasting?
the shape of bottle matches the perfume in it the best way.

tuberose_and _sand

I really like this perfume; it's the first time I'm using it, although I've known about it for a long time. To me, it has a strong smell, very sensual and oriental, deep, dark and rich. It has reasonable staying power and the drydown is powdery, warm and sophisticated.I detect notes of vanilla and spices and, on my skin, it becomes a bit smokey, but in a pleasant way. Great smell altogether!

Elitsa

My sister uses a third bottle of it - she is so in love with it - when she found it she stopped using all others.
For me this is from the perfumes you love or hate. I find it very oriental, very vintage but it's too strong, heavy and smells cheap. i don't smell anything from the top notes, only a very sweet vanilla - it cause me a headache. i hate it.

verity

The first fragrance I was hooked on and that triggered my love a affair with fragrance was Must De Cartier(the 80's version). The perfume came in a little bottle with a leather case. Dior Addict reminds me of a modern less claggy version of this. I used to detest heavy fragrances in my mid twenties such as Angel and Obsession,then my taste completely changed so I began experimenting. I was a little late to the party with Addict and only discovered it a couple of years ago, after testing I fell for the woodsy tobacco-y vanilla. It has a squeeze of freshness which counteracts the heady tonka bean, but its is pure addiction. A little goes a long way and usually I like only enough to hit my own nose, not the whole room as it can be a statement perfume.

Niovi

I finally found my perfume, the one that will take the place of my last bottle of Nu (YSL)! At first I got excited with Hypnotic Poison. I bought it but it was too sweetish-corny I would say. Then I thought I found what I wanted on Midnight Poison. Bought it too but it was too masculine and heavy. They both made me sick.
Then I remembered Dior ADDICT and asked dad to bring it from the airport just in case. And that was it! Less oriental than Nu but still feminine, it is at the same time fresh enough to wear it during the day and for me, even summer. It is exactly on the limit between a heavy and a light perfume. It is intensive but not slightly annoying. I reommend it to almost everybody who are not fun of too light, flowry or fruity perfumes.

Annie_D

This fragrance has so much depth, it wraps you in a sensual feminine aura. I have loved this fragrance since it came out. It is truly a fabulous evening scent you will feel so sexy in this and it is addictive, ask any man and they can't get enough!

ramiske

I have read reviews of this one many times, but I had tried Addict 2, which didn't really impress me--so I stayed away.
Addict couldn't be any more different than Addict 2! I was in a store yesterday, and tested this on a whim. WOW! I was so impressed, and immediately wanted it! It isn't a scent for the quiet, understated woman, however. It is an 'in your face' bold scent. Even 36 hours later, the little tester strip is still going strong.

I usually don't wear orientals, but this will soon be part of my collection!!! I WANT IT!!

Anna_C

When they said this fragrance lasted long... they were NOT kidding!!! I love this fragrance but two words - Head Ache! This stuff is powerful!!! And it lasts forever! Really amazing tho! I really love it- very sensual and warm with sweet vanilla and a nice oriental drydown. Excellent fragance! When I wear it I get a headache but this is one thats WORTH the heaache!!! Im such an Addict!!

frangipani

After reading so many reviews on this perfume I had to try it. I was very lucky to find some samples on ebay. I had already tried the eau fraiche and am still undecided about it but this? I am in love with it. I have been searching for an evening fragrance that isn't too in ya face but has just enough oomph to be sensual and provoke a reaction. I agree it is probably more wintery but could I get away with it in the spring/summer season as well?? We'll see. Maybe that is when the Eau Fraiche should kick in but it doesn't have the same wow for me that this does. Anyway, I bought all 14 samples in a job lot. I'll keep you informed. The search is halted for now.....

guiwings

all the comments on this are so positive, but why can't I just like this perfume. Yes it has a original smell, but it's really strong. at least for my poor nose

Mellushka

I still haven't made my mind up about this perfume..
I haven't made up my mind on wheather it would suit me or not...
I think I may need a tester beforehand.

The opening lures you in, the scent begins to play with your mind, your thoughts dance with the top notes, wanting more.. changing your mindset.. seduction, bedroom eyes and smokey whispers... all in a whirlpool of fragrance presented at once.

drydown then becomes apparent, sensual, warm, inviting, like a blanket with a cup of hot chocolate in front of a fire...
the calm after the storm...
The dry-down really is divine

I will make my decision soon enough..

julianne35

hımmmm..this is really warm, feminine and sexy...Such a good combination of sandalwood, vanilla and tonka bean..Those three I like the most in a perfume! The only thing that distrubed me when I smell was the green notes in the top which fortunately only lasts 5 minutes:)

allexa27

Addict is one of a kind!there is no other perfume with such specific ,super seductive and mistirious smell.i always must have at least one bottle of it !

mellybee

There is something in common with Rochas Absolue, which I prefer to this. Addict becomes too sweet for my taste.

Filiccia

ADDICTed 2 it from the first time I tested it. It differs from other "heavy" winter perfumes,it's quite strange...Unforgettable

snobuni77

I was so happy to get it & as soon as I opened the package I put it on & had my husband smell it right away.At first(very first) it smelled masculine (he said it reminded him of Old Spice LOL) but it definitely doesn't smell anything like that,but it did kind of at first
I do smell the mandarin & raspberry witch is held up by vanilla & tonka.The sandalwood makes it so its not to sweety.I have to say that I think I smell violet in this but I don't see it in the notes.

This perfume is heavenly.I don't find it to strong or overbearing at all(Unless you douse yourself in it which my mother in law just did =(I'm frowning because she just dumped half my mini in her hands=( DaM it!!!
Well I will be for sure buying a larger bottle.

This is a very sexy sensual perfume,so much so that it actually almost even turns me on "lol"

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Update I bought a 3.4 oz bottle & I'm still loving this.
It is also one of the 4 perfumes by husband actually said he like's YaY!!!!

debbie

It is somewhat mild but all yet sexy. Not overbearing but a sweet mild smell. It is a great at-work fragrance.

Trvevil

For me it's so similar to Flowerbomb Extreme Sparkle, It doesn't leave any trail. It's more oriental/spicy than Flowerbomb. Lasting power is also excellent. One thing, I was so confused. I read all these 'sexy' comments and was expecting something... but not this.
(And 'sexy' I was expecting was like Agent Provocateur)
It's flowery at the beginning and dries down very spicy leaving something a little sweet too.

Niovi

I decided I like and I will probably buy this pefume, the moment I tried it on my hand chosing it randomly from the stand. However it keeps confusing me because it smells differently every time I try it. At the beginning I concieved it as oriental, but at the end of the day I could smell mainly vanillia. Today all I could smell was flowers in the beginning and after hours it was mainly vanillia again. It also seems strange that everybody describe it as longlasting cause it came up very subtle to me-I can barely smell it right now. However it is a good perfume, one of the best I have tried the last week looking to replace my no longer existing Nu.

honeypoppyseed

Dior Addict is a great perfume for a number of reasons: It smells incredible, it's very long lasting, and it's economical. You will only need one or two spritzes and you're good all night (or day).

When you first apply it it's very strong and intoxicating, but after a few moments the smell soaks in and starts pumping through your body and nose. It toys with your brain. It's very sexy, very seductive (to men and women). It's very sweet and yet it has a real edge and spice. The use of sandalwood is so brilliant... I never could have predicted the way that would play with the vanilla.

Dior Addict is exactly what it claims to be: addictive, sexy, and clearly sensual. Not every woman can get away with wearing it the same way. A lady needs to find her own place for Addict, and make sure she owns the scent, and that it doesn't own her.

Also, bit of a cautionary tail: NEVER buy Addict 2, or any other Dior fragrance and expect it to be at all comparable to Addict original. They aren't. While I LOVE Miss Dior Cherie, there have been some fragrances by Dior which have reeeaaallly rubbed me the wrong way.

Silvery

It was one of my Christmas presents, and I immediately got addicted to this perfume. What a beautiful oriental floral it is, I can't stop sniffing my wrist! Very rich, sensual&seductive! I'm looking forward to show this perfume to my boyfriend ;)
Only bad thing is that the bottle I got is 5 ml :(

pumpkinqueen

You have to own this at some point in life. I wore it solidly when i was 18 and last week my fiance's mum and me decided it was time for a Dior X-mas 08!

Everytime I wear it I get the following 3 questions/approaches,
'Ummmmmm!! You smell amazing!'
'AHH ADDICT!!! I wear it too!'
'Please tell me what that perfume is so i can buy it!'

Its intersting to smell, nothing like the other perfumes on the market. Its not what i would call 'sweet' but its not Fresh or Light.

Very sexy and long lasting!

persefonex

This perfum is absolutely seductor. Many people would use it at evening. Whatever, i use it for working and everyone ask me what am i using. Is for women self secure, feminines, and not shide. I use it when i need to feel my self wonderful and divine. Is for feeling like a queen.

Taliera

This is the first Dior scent I have actually liked!! J'Adore was nothing more than "alright" and the Poisons never attracted me (they were too heavy and made me want to sneeze...), while Miss Dior Cherie (which everyone was raving about) seemed nothing more than a well researched floral-fruity designed for the teen/youth market.
But this one - is not so much punch you in the face - it's strong but subtle at the same time. Like the bottle, the fragrance smells "blue". I love the creamy vanilla and sandalwood base (most bases I love have these two ingredients). The whole composition is mysterious and complex, unfolding deep lustrous notes throughout the drydown... Not for everyone, but definitely for me :)

pimentosugars

Creamy, all that vanilla...it's the sandalwood that stops this queen of the night smelling like a rice pudding bath. Definitely an evening scent and one doesn't need too much of it - it's a moment away from being too sweet. Soft and sultry, a very alluring scent.

PR

I've tried this smell again ,and Kenzo as well and found less similarity between them then previuosly. And sadly liked them much less as well. Though obviously Dior Addict is a good smell, I've found it lacking some depth, perhaps it is the softness of the scent, but there's something artificial in it that I dislike too.

PR

I don't know if I am mistaken, but Dior Addict is quite similar smell to Kenzo Amour. Dior has a little more spiciness, and it is more 'down to earth', while in Kenzo you smell soft air and it is somwhere 'in the air'. At the very least Dior Addict could be the evening or special occasion fragrance developed as a series of Kenzo Amour or contrary Kenzo Amour could be the more everyday scent of Dior addict. The similarity's there. But both scents are soft and innoffensive. Very oriental, I would be glad to have both of them

BelleBeryl

heady intoxicating sweet warm sexy scent
I really like this one lasts for hours

amanda

its warm and sexy, the smell of a superwoman, strong and powerful but full of feminity

girlsrideharleys2

This is a HG of mine. Very sultry and smokey. I LOVE this perfume and will never be without it. I get compliments when I wear this. A must have for those that love vanilla-orientals.

Suseken

Addict is sexy,long lasting,wonderful warm base note with tonka and vanille.
A great oriental perfume.
Its one of my alltime favourites I never want to miss.

Vanessa Olivatti

Dior Addict is a defect of perfume and happiness.
It is a pump and dangerous sexual and sensual at the same time.

beloved boo

definitely my most favorite fragrance. It's warm, sexy, trust-worthy and gives you the feeling of being loved and embraced.

KeLLStar

I'm not quite sure about Dior Addict.

There is a smoky/musky quality (which I think may be the combination of Sandalwood + tonka bean) that makes it smell like incense.

Not for me unforunately.

Edit: Dec 08 - I think I have completely changed my mind about Dior Addict. I thought I would try it on my skin again today and really loved it! The incense was not too bad this time. The drydown reminds me a lot of Hypnotic Poison (with Incense and without the Root Beer). Nice!

guest_Kali

Very sweet. This year I smell it on many women, so Addict has some appeal. Just not a favorite for me. There is some strange note in it that smells a little funky and off to my nose.

Sicily

I don't like it, not at all. I would describe it as very heavy, rich vanilla with citruses and sun oil scent. Causes me a headache, this is the worst scent ever, stale and dirty.

lovelylavender

I'm not a big fans of oriental perfume. But, this one really got me. I like the way it make me beautiful without too much look-at-me note.

elgab89

In the house of Dior tradition, another great oriental. The fragrance is deep, noticeable and has a great base. Long lasting, a very good choice for evening wear.
