More about Dior Paradise
Paradise from Dior's La Collection Privée is a luminous citrus gourmand built around the almond orchard at Château de La Colle Noire in Provence. Bright mandarin, lime and orange open into a heart of bitter almond and syrup, finishing on tonka bean and creamy woods. Francis Kurkdjian's composition feels at once edible and airy — a sunlit pastry note draped in citrus light.
