Floral Chypre

Older style chypres that aimed at the ladylike mores of the 1950s were usually built on a floral heart of gardenia. Such scents included the iconic Miss Dior from 1947, Christian Dior’s first fragrance. Contemporary specimens are usually dark with patcouli, but still floral in their heart. We recommend Noir Patchouli (Histoires de Parfums).
