Intro

Hypnotic Poison perfume by Christian Dior is one of the bestselling Dior fragrances and probably the most widely appealing of the Dior Poison family. It seems it just can not evoke neutral feelings, either you love it or hate it. I myself am a raving fan; it is one of my favourite perfumes, so this review might be just a little bit biased.

An effective poison has to be stored in precious little bottles. This one is stored in an eye-catching dark red bottle, cut in a shape of a forbidden apple from the Garden of Eden. Indeed, wearing Hypnotic Poison by Christian Dior will turn you into audacious Eve seducing your Adam to eat the forbidden fruit. Just like the perfume's incarnation Monica Bellucci, luscious diabolic serpent, you will entice him to step through the doors of the parallel Garden of Lust.

Notes

Hypnotic Poison perfume is an excellent oriental vanilla concoction. According to the official Dior description, four contrasting facets define this philtre: the intoxicating bitter almonds spiced up with caraway (top notes), the opulent Sambac Jasmine (which along with other flowers, rose, lily of the valley and tuberose forms the middle notes), the mysterious Jacaranda wood, and sensuous vanilla and musk facet (base notes).

In top notes some people detect also apricot and coconut; to me in the top notes the almonds are the strongest. The floral heart is tender and fades away fast. Base is sweet long-lasting spicy vanilla with light musky-woody touch. Hypnotic Poison perfume is vanilla sweet, but not in a teeny kind of way, as the bitterness of almonds somehow quiets down the narcotic sweetness of vanilla, restraining it from becoming too gourmand in combination with other elusive 'foody' scents. Bitter almonds melt into spicy vanilla making the fragrance a compelling love potion, with dark, smoky, uhmm, dirty character.

This fragrance is often described as being rather heavy - heady. But this really depends on the skin type. On my skin it does not feel heavy or cloying and it also fades away usually after two hours. If I apply it too much at once, it develops strong peppery accord which I prefer much less compared to the 'natural' vanilla musky-woody dry down. So apply sparingly and use neutral body shower gels and lotions beforehand.

Forbidden Thoughts

And how does Hypnotic Poison perfume make you feel as woman? Like a true femme fatale, irresistible seductress. More confident, powerful, bold... It will evoke your wildest fantasies and passions in an instant... It will take you straight to fiery Andalusian summer midday, where you can do nothing else but voluptuously wait for the night to come...

And it will - soon!

Occasions Just For Two & Seasons

Above all, this is a venom designed for men, it bewitches them slowly and poisons them quickly. Their knees get weak near this luscious bait... Therefore, please DO NOT wear this fragrance to the office, it can be too offensive and distracting. Save it for the evenings and nights, for your unwitting prey.


LeAnn Rimes & Chris Isaak: You're the devil in disguise, oh, yes you are!


Hypnotic Poison perfume by Christian Dior is a magic oriental vanilla diamond, with the brightest shining facets of top bitter almonds spiced up with caraway, heart of Sambac jasmine, and base of Jacaranda wood, vanilla and musk. Appropriate for the darkest hours of the coldest days of the year, it is designed for pleasuring just two: Eve and Adam.


Caution With This Gift!

Hypnotic Poison by Christian Dior is very direct and audacious love potion, so think twice before you buy it as a perfume gift. It is not an appropriate gift just for any woman. Hypnotic Poison seduces whispering Patti Smith's words: 'Take me now baby here as I am... Touch me now, touch me now, touch me now!'

Beware, because the night belongs to lust!
