More about Dior Fahrenheit
Fahrenheit is the original Eau de Toilette from Dior, created in 1988 by Jean-Louis Sieuzac, Michel Almairac and Maurice Roger. An aromatic fougère for men built on contrast, it opens bright with mandarin, lemon, bergamot, lavender, chamomile and nutmeg flower. A distinctive violet-leaf heart with nutmeg, honeysuckle, carnation, jasmine and sandalwood gives it its famous warmth, while leather, vetiver, musk, amber, patchouli and tonka bean leave a powerful, lingering trail. A cold-weather evening classic, and the fragrance that Fahrenheit Le Parfum later intensified.
