This scent is beautiful. To me it is worn soft leather. It is so comforting during cold winter evenings or anytime I want to feel buffeted and comforted, but it is in no way heavy. It is light and elegant and not really like anything else I know. Probably the most pure leathery scent I own.
It seems to stay true to its nature the whole way through, slightly mossy and green at first and gently meandering.
I would say this is light enough for summer too, and will probably appeal to the more mature of us.
Exquisite leathery chypre with just a hint of florals to keep it from being too dry.

Is this some kind of joke to call this perfume “Miss Dior”? This perfume isn’t for young girl, you could call Miss, and it never was, even in 1947, when it was launched. And the bottle? It’s nice, but it doesn’t represent the scent at all. For me the scent is quite dark and I would say unhappy chypre- leather scent for mature lady.

this is a clasic but suited for women over their 40s...

No words could explain my love for Dior. Feel happy, warm and confident anytime wear it. The scent lasts for so long and some certain moment you can feel it, smoothly, and you slow down to tell yourself that you're beautiful and lucky (with it on your skin)

Very dry and sharply dusty on my skin. It has no appeal or beauty with my chemistry, I'm afraid. Try before buy.

This perfume - top of femininity scents, which are always described as elegant and classy. This was my first "real perfume", and I'm happy to have it again. The green-aldehydic opening grows to a delightful bouquet of spring flowers, slightly powdered, decorated with Patchouli and Vetiver, and wrapped into subtle leather. This is classic Chypre, but very easy to wear, and appropriate for any situation.

nice perfume but not my kind.if i chose an old perfume it would definetly be something from guerlain.
UPDATE: i changed my mind about it,i like it although it smells very old dusty and bitter. has something in it which i like and makes me feel dreamy,not to mention that has a very good quality and it s long lasting.i also like to bottle,i think matches the perfume.

It is Saturday night, intermission at the theater. A lady dressed in a long black leather coat is standing alone unperturbed by the looks of the people around her and smokes languorously from a long cigarette holder.
It is a Grand Lady perfume, the flowers occupy a minimal role in it, definitely Chypres notes, and very profound leathery scent. For some reason I also find it also "smoky" in a very pleasant way.

Spicy and quite rich, but dry as a bone by modern standards and all the better for it - there are very few sweet notes in this, which at frst smell makes it dryer than many aftershaves. Excellent for workwear for that very reason- it may be called 'Miss' Dior but there is nothing giggly or girly about it - one for grown ups

I'm fascinated by this fragrance. It is nostalgic, reminds me of someone or something luxurious and clean in my childhood. It is soapy, powdery scent. I guess there might be variations in sale, as the first time I tried the tester in the shop it ddidn't give out exactly the same scent and this second time (maybe old tester, maybe different composition).
