Fragrance | And Dior Created Woman

After weeks of receiving teaser postal cards in my mailbox, the gorgeous new Dior campaign is finally revealed! Inspired by Brigitte Bardot’s iconic role in And God Created Woman, photographer Tim Walker and director Jonas Åkerlund team up to capture the latest campaign for fragrance Dior Addict. The three-minute clip shows Dutch top model Daphne Groeneveld as a young Brigitte Bardot dancing around to Stereo Total’s ‘I Love You, Ono’ on the French Riviera. Daphne was chosen as the face of Dior’s two additions to the Dior Addict line; the fruity Eau Fraîche and heady floral Eau Sensuelle.

Dior was so kind to offer me the opportunity to choose one of the 3 fragrances. Since I was looking for a light, fresh summer fragrance I decided to go for Eau Fraîche. I haven’t tried the other fragrances, so I have no idea whether or not this is the best choice for me, but what I DO know is that I’ve found my new favorite fragrance for the summer!

Eau Fraîche is a sparkling and fruity floral fragrance. The first chords contain sparkling citrus notes with a bittersweet grapefruit accent that is sublimated by sensual bergamot which is grown in southern Italy. The versatile heart is fruity, tart and flowery and lasts for several hours. It’s where a subtle bouquet of freesia and white lotus flower meets the explosive and tasty pomegranate. The base contains wood accents and white musk. Lovers of the Dior Chérie fragrance will definitely appreciate this one as well.

The bottle is amazing as well.  It just breathes luxury, which is to be expected of Dior. Loves it! The design is simple yet super girly with it’s slender shape, silver coated top and pink glass details. The cap at the top is to be twisted in order to spray the fragrance so no more dealing with unnecessary caps or accidental spraying in your bag. Mine’s (100 ml) is a bit too big and heavy to carry around, but the 20 ml edition looks super cute and fits any handbag!
