Dior revives thirteen classics with Dioriginals: from Diorissimo to Dune

The work on these classics comes with a shared presentation: the oval bottle inspired by the 1948 design. The selection brings together perfumes from different periods of the house, from Diorissimo, from 1956, to names such as Higher Energy, from its men’s catalog.

Three names to understand the collection

Diorissimo, created in 1956 by Edmond Roudnitska, keeps lily of the valley at the center of its identity. The house’s current listing pairs it with jasmine, rose, ylang-ylang, and a hyacinth accord. Roudnitska retains the creation credit and Kurkdjian signs the restoration.

Dune dates from 1991 and the brand credits its creation to Dominique Ropion and Jean-Louis Sieuzac. The current presentation highlights blackcurrant buds and mandarin, with rose, jasmine, and a woody accord.

Dolce Vita, from 1995, is credited to Pierre Bourdon. Its listing brings together peach, rose, vanilla, and a woody accord. All three are offered as 100 ml eau de toilette.

Which perfumes make up Dioriginals

The selection is divided into three groups. The florals are Diorissimo, Dune, Dolce Vita, and Forever and ever. The chypres bring together Eau Fraîche, Diorella, Dioressence, Diorama, and Diorling. The woody section includes Dune pour Homme, Higher, Higher Energy, and Jules.

The shared bottle features a textured oval label and a ridged metal ring with the CD monogram. It is the element that identifies the collection, while each perfume keeps its name.

The US catalog offering

Dior’s US store carries all thirteen references. The nine florals and chypres are listed at 155 USD; the four woody ones at 142 USD.
