Love Loudly With DIOR: Our Favourite Fragrances to Gift This Valentine’s Day

At Adore Beauty, we believe in celebrating love boldly.

Two little words that together speak volumes. And likely, land differently for everyone.

For me, to love loudly is to express yourself fearlessly.

It's about more than the grand gestures; it's a celebration of the everyday moments, the shared laughter, the quiet understanding, and the unwavering support.

To love loudly is to embrace love in all its facets – the good, the bad, and the beautifully messy.

As we immerse ourselves in the season of romance, we invite you to make your love known through a gift that resonates with the spirit of "Love Loudly."

Enter the enchanting world of DIOR fragrances, where each bottle is a manifestation of love's most exquisite notes.

Whether you're drawn to the timeless elegance of J'adore or the magnetic allure of Sauvage, there's a DIOR fragrance waiting to become a part of your love story.

So, dare to lean into love this Valentine's Day.

Because love, when expressed boldly and beautifully, becomes a memory that lasts a lifetime.

“This fragrance stick is so unique! Delivering the signature Miss Dior and Miss Dior Blooming Bouquet scents, it is the PERFECT no-fuss way to touch up your fragrance anytime, anywhere.

I applied these to my wrists and neck and found that the scent lasted a really long time, which was super impressive considering how undetectable the fragrance is when it's being applied.

I particularly loved the packaging that the sticks come in, they feel super luxe with the Miss Dior houndstooth motif scattered throughout.

These would be PERFECT as an on-the-go scent and would even make a super cute gift."

A DIOR customer shared their review:

“This is my current favourite fragrance.

Every time I spray this on, I always get stopped and get complimented that I am smelling really good. They also ask me what perfume I am wearing.

I personally love the smell of it too. It’s not too floral for my choice - it’s just the perfect mix of floral and musk.

What I like in a fragrance is that it shouldn't hit me or people around me too hard that they get a headache - and this fragrance just fits that.

It’s not too strong that it gives you a headache neither is it too subtle that it goes unnoticed.

I highly recommend it to all those girls and women out there. It’s not too feminine - it’s just perfect and there.”

It's like a golden potion that brings out the best in J'adore flowers, making me feel effortlessly sophisticated.

The fragrance is this perfect mix of orange blossom, jasmine, and rose that's just right—powerful and sensual.

A modern classic that exudes rugged elegance and magnetic appeal.

DIOR Sauvage EDT captures the essence of the free-spirited man who embraces the thrill of the open road.

Fast facts:

• A blend of contrasting notes that harmonise into an irresistibly bold and masculine scent.

Notes:

• Head: Calabrian bergamot and pepper.

• Heart: Sichuan pepper, lavender, pink pepper and vetiver.

• Base: Ambroxan, cedar and labdanum.

A DIOR Customer shared their review:

“I originally received a sample spray vial of this men's cologne and gave it to my husband. It smelled amazing on him...sensual, spicy, and it lasted without being overpowering.

He liked it and added it to his "Top 5" of colognes.

Fast forward to a weekend trip out of state and I discovered that my travel spray of my women's perfume had broken in my bag.

As a gal who favours spicy perfumes to floral, I quickly "borrowed" a spritz of his Dior Sauvage. I then fell in love with how it smells on me.

After this, I bought my husband a medium sized bottle of Sauvage (he rarely wears cologne and so this will last him forever) so I can borrow it from him from time to time.

DIOR Dior Homme Intense EDP.

What: DIOR Dior Homme Intense Eau de Parfum 100ml

A captivating and rich fragrance that accentuates the sensuality and charisma of the modern man.

This intense interpretation of the classic Dior Homme is a magnetic blend of sophistication and allure, leaving an unforgettable trail of elegance.

Fast facts:

• A luxurious and velvet texture that’s ideal for evening wear and special occasions.

• Bold lavender opens the fragrance, leading to an alluring blend of amber, iris and dark cocoa undertones.

• The perfect perfume companion for the modern man who loves to leave a lasting impression wherever he goes.

Notes:

• Head: Lavender.

• Heart: Iris, ambrette and pear.

• Base: Virginia cedar and vetiver.

A DIOR Customer shared their review:

“First spray, first love type of scent.

This invokes class and screams French. The quality of this fragrance is undoubtedly beautiful and has such an outstanding scent profile.

To me, this is a unisex fragrance. I rate this a 10/10.

The one thing that might put people off is what occasion to wear this. It could be worn in the office as the projection isn’t too heavy and it lasts over 8 hours.

But it really shines in going out for dinner, bar, and especially dates.

I suggest you buy this if you are looking for a sophisticated smell that smells like nothing in the market.

One of the best designer scents ever!!”
