I have it: 9 I had it: 2 I want it: 13
Dior launches a new exclusive collection of ten perfumes named La Collection Couturier Parfumeur in 2010., signed by the perfumer Francois Demachy. The collection illustrates the life of the founder - the famous Christian Dior.
The collection consists of re editions of three male fragrances: Eau Noire, Bois d'Argent and Ambre Nuit, and seven new ones: Mitzah, Vetiver, Granville, Leather Oud, New Look 1947, Cologne Royale and Milly-la-Foret. Vetiver and Leather Oud are masculine perfumes; Cologne Royale is suitable for both genders, while the rest are intended for the ladies.
Milly-la-Foret is named after a small town near Paris; a town of floral gardens in which C. Dior spent considerable time with his mother. It is floral, musky and clean, like a refreshing walk in the woods.
The fragrances from Dior La Collection Couturier Parfumeur are available in bottles of 125 ml, 225 ml and 450 ml.

Again, I agree with "henri345que" and I would add that this is a more feminine and floral version of "Cologne Imperiale", so if the original is too citrussy or unisex, this one has more sweetness, florals and musk.
I reckon this could be a very good wedding fragrance or a gift for a young graduate for it is very pleasant, inoffensive, str8 forward and does not confuse or distract.
I can also detect a pleasant green note similar to "Cristalle" CHANEL (yet far less strong) that remind me of broken tulip stems or green beans.
If "New Look" is the more sophisticated business orientated and ambitious modern woman, this one is her younger, more naive, playful, frolic little sister, laughing and playing in the rosegarden (while big sis is small talking with the businessmen).
Very feminine and floral.
It's a citrus-blackberry-musk accord in the style of Cologne Mure et Musc by L'Artisan, Fraicheur Muskissime bu MPG (with less sandalwood) and Bouquet Impérial by Roger & Gallet. Like in the R&G it's the citrus aspect that dominates in Milly. Lovely, but we have seen this before...
Anyone who buys Dior La Collection Couturier Parfumeur MILLY-LA-FORET blind--or as a gift--thinking that this is a floral perfume is going to be in for a big surprise: this is a green! The only thing that persuades me to believe that there has not been a decanting error involved--a mix-up in the vials--is the name. This really does smell like a forest!
Upon initial application, I was sure that I was walking down a trail amidst the Rocky Mountains breathing in the cool crisp air as pine needles and twigs snapped underneath while moss cushioned my feet. Majestic evergreen and fir trees reached up into the blue sky as far as the eye could see. But no, the notes, according to Dior, are mandarin, neroli, and musk. Comment cela?
To me, MILLY-LA-FORET is a fairly linear green with an aromatic edge--and a nice one at that. But this is at least unisex if not masculine and not floral at all. Caveat emptor!
