Dior Homme Cologne Dior for men

MFK i am going to smell your nose very soon,i love your long nose and the ideas it brings to the world,
iris,iris,iris...
different,balmy a true masterpiece from the masters.

Luckly i've found a bottle of this gorgeous scent. This is a lighter version of Dior Homme. Also it has less lasting power, but sillage and projection are okay. I guess the neroli note has given it a real freshness that makes this scent versatile for summer/spring. If you find this, just dont hesitate: BUY IT. Thumbs up!

Many people relate that dry powdery scent that hits the throat in the beginning as "lipstick" note. well in my opinion that is, though its the iris.

a lighter edition but still very good 4 the summer time .... like it !

Dior Homme Cologne, launched in 2007 is in my opinion, a watered down version of the original.

The fragrance opens up with a slightly citrus aroma guaranteed by bergamot supported by the characteristic lipstick/makeup smell produced by Iris, but in this one, with much less power than the original.

Over time, the smell develops basically to iris followed by a slight aroma of leather.

My conclusion: if you want a classic, stick with the original. This one was made for those who wanted to insist on traditional Dior Homme, but was afraid to get a too feminine look. Oh by the way, the longevity is poor.

Can I ask what the hell is a 'lipstick' accord? I never knew lipstick even had a scent?

Great scent, if you want to smell like stale lipstick. How did this ever hit the market? And crazy how some people like it, I must be from another planet.

It's the velvety version of Dior Homme edt.
It opens with more citruses. Citruses like mandarin orange and neroli are dominant. Yo can smell cardamom as well.
Still chic and still extremely masculine but younger.
Its longevity is not strong like its original version, so poor.
Herbs like lavender and sage makes it a bit smooth, smoky and velvety. It's exactly the softened version of Homme.

Longevity 7/10
sillage 10/10
scent 9/10

There is no overstatement about the lipstik smell. This is really, really in fact, the first detectable thing. And this is the Cologne version. I just can imagine how the original and the intense version smell like. By no means "bad", but it recalls that. No doubt. And I find it interesting, allthough probably I would look for something else. I can say some other things: I don't get any citrus, at least not enough to make any difference (maybe because it is all on Dior H Sport); the lipstik smell is no more predominant after 15, 25 minutes; and just after about 30 minutes I get something that remembers me Armani Attitude Extreme, when it becomes a bit common to my nose. Despise its citric begining (a bit too much for some, not for me anymore), DHSport shines more (not just a "sporty" scent). P.S.: I have a tendency to keep smelling my wrist when I spray some scents. Dior Homme Sport has proved that, and now the same for Dior Homme Cologne and Guerlain L'Instant pour Homme. Interesting.

Update (03.04.2011): Two notes. I tried Dior Homme Intense and I was guessing wrong. Intense is much more sweet of course, but that lipstik smell is so well mixed with other notes that you get it clearly only in the first moments. In Cologne it lasts a bit more. And actually is not bad. But maybe you wouldn't like to smell it. As for the citrus, I finally got it on Cologne. Since I put Intense, a more heavy one, on one wrist, and Cologne on another, I could feel the citrus in the last. Very very mild.

I had tested the regular DH (a bit "thick" for me) and DH Sport (a bit too much ginger for my taste) so I bought the 125ml "Cologne" version "on spec" sight unsmelt. I thought the (alleged) citrus would temper the heaviness of the regular DH but I cannot make out the citrus at all. Perhaps it is just its development on my skin. Having said that, it's light and subtle but not banal. It is dictinctive and can be worn here in the tropics. Glad I bought it.

Fresher and luminous version of the original EDT. I like its smoky sweet and fresh opening. It has a huge trail. But there is a worst thing about it - it has no longevity at all. Great fragrance, great price, expensive components against weak and poor lasting expirience. I've been expecting more from Dior and at this price, also. 5/10 for its qualitative weakness.

Iris plus leather without the cloying nightmare Dior Homme EdT is. I would love to have it but... given the price, is it worth it ?

For me, its a little bit better than the EDT. My review for the EDT version it fits in here, fot the Cologne version as well. The difference for me is only the top notes, because it's not so powdery. It beggins softer and sweeter than the EDT version.
As a Brazilian citizen, I think that it's not so agressive than the others versions to be worn in our weather.

I prefer the Dior Homme edt. This cologne is lighter, softer, fresher and more citrus. Besides, it fades away too fast. A cute scent. But it's not worth buying.
