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.

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.

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.


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)

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.

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.

smells divine and it loove the vanille tonka drydown,really worth buying!

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....

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.


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

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.

say it is only a body lotion.If you enjoy oriental florals ,please believe me, worth of trying it.


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.

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. :)

I am always complimented when I wear this.

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.



but it still too sweet for me to use.

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!


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 :)

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.

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...

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.


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.


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.


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!!



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..




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!!!!
(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.

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.

Only bad thing is that the bottle I got is 5 ml :(

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!

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 :)


I really like this one lasts for hours



A great oriental perfume.
Its one of my alltime favourites I never want to miss.

It is a pump and dangerous sexual and sensual at the same time.

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!
