Poison Girl (2016)
by Christian Dior

It's very nice. The same base as Hypnotic poison, with a lighter, younger feel. Better for summer!

Sillage and longevity are good.

Kenzo Amour had a lovechild with Poison Red. It's very vanilla sweet, a bit dry and "babypowder" like and easy to wear. It's a slightly above average vanilla number with some more gourmand notes thrown in there. I don't think the marketing matches the scent, it's a very safe and warm fragrance.

It must be disheartening for a skilled perfumer to turn out iterations of what everyone else is doing.

What's required of the Nose is to make something that's virtually identical to the one sitting next to it on the promo stand while at the same time retaining its unique selling proposition.

In a market of near clones, all of which closely resemble a commercially successful formula, these USPs can be no more than mere details which when combined make juice X a slight variation of juice Y.

Mainstream perfume thus becomes like the suits of the men who design it. Uniform; intended to blend in with the crowd, differentiated only by small flourishes of ornamentation - a neck tie here, a pair of brown shoes there.

I absoloutely love fabulous POISON but this is whole a other story.the scent is not bad at all.a pleasant surprise.sweet deliciousness.definitely one for gourmand lovers.perfect choice to warm up yourself and feel comfortably and cozy.Yes like a lot of modern vanillic perfumes but much better as it has an edge of spices.Vanilla characterizes the scent's evolution.from inception to cpmpletion,the vanilla notes mature from a sharp,edible top note to softer in the middle then darkening to add depth to the base note Sweet,Edible,Enchanting,Warm,Cute,Charming, Sensuous and Magnetic.

As the sun begins to set,Poison Girl evolves and the atmosphere changes:the clean elegance of orange combines with the delicate essence of sweet rose after sunset,the intensity of the evening and all that it has to offer is felt.the soft sensuality of blends with the rich comfort of vanilla,almond and Tonka bean to provide the perfect fragrance for to set the stage for the night ahead.the scent is like a trophy girlfriend with long sleek raven black hair,sexy black clothes and so much make up.it is better for evening,suitable for a charming girl who she is daringly flirtatious.You are a really girl but not a really poison!

Sillage?Very Good.

Longevity?About 8 hours on my skin.

7/10

Another nice scent on the market. Sweet, safe and girly; reminds me of Live Irresistibly or Black Opium. At first, it´s a nice explosion of sweet roses, then mutates into vanilla cake and maripan -so far so good- but the drydown became something too strong and sweet for my nose, like orange jam and licorice. I´m a bit dissapointed not only for I was expecting something more edgy but it does not fit with the Poison range. Nor the add with the smoking hot model. Nice bottle though.
