More about Dior Hypnotic Poison
Hypnotic Poison by Dior is a 1998 women's fragrance by perfumer Annick Menardo, conceived as an intoxicating spell of forbidden allure, both dangerous and deeply inviting. It begins with juicy apricot, plum and coconut among its top notes. The heart notes are the floral core: rich jasmine and orange blossom with rose, tuberose, lily-of-the-valley, caraway and Brazilian rosewood. The base notes bring the smooth sweetness of almond, creamy vanilla and warm sandalwood, finished with musk. Seductive yet soft, it carries an almost secretive charm, like slipping into a velvet dress under candlelight, each movement leaving a trail of mystery. Dior Hypnotic Poison is a cold-season favorite, worn mainly through fall and winter, and above all after dark. Expect a sweet, creamy floral-gourmand that fits dinners and chilly evenings, for anyone who likes a little mystery in a fragrance.
