"Dior Homme Parfum is a composition with an unusual concentration for a men's fragrance. It 'works' on the skin and comes to life with an extraordinary intensity. It's a long-distance fragrance, a journey." 

François Demachy, Dior Perfumer-Creator

TUSCAN IRIS
Iris absolute is one of the most precious elements of the perfumer's palette. Its extraction is a very long and delicate process: the rhizome must first be treated and then dried for at least three years. Its extraordinarily strong, almost pervasive fragrance of powdery accords reveals its woody green nuances, bringing to mind the reassuring aroma of warm bread in the heart note of Dior Homme Parfum.

SRI LANKAN SANDALWOOD
Native to India, Santalum Album is the most sought-after centuries-old variety in the world. In his quest to find the highest quality raw materials available and promote sustainable supplier relationships, François Demachy chose to forge a partnership with a Sri Lankan producer. The plantation, organized like a tree nursery, produces a rare quality of Sandalwood.

LEATHER ACCORD
Creating a leather fragrance is an exercise in style that began with a desire to reproduce the scent of Russian leather, one of the highest quality leathers. Tanned with charred birch bark, this legendary, fine leather emitted warm and enveloping notes that perfumers were soon scrambling to recreate. And so a leather note was born, obtained from "pyrogenic" birch oil. An overheated, "caramelized" note that is the signature of this highly distinctive olfactory family.
