Which Should You Buy?
A legendary, dark, and sensual vanilla that's been tragically reformulated over the years. The original 2002 version is a confidence-boosting beast, revered by many, but its intensity means it’s definitely not for everyone.
Inspired By Addict copies Dior Addict's glossy blackberry-vanilla frame but the jasmine bouquet flattens fast and the vanilla takes over within the first hour, leaving a simpler, sweeter wear than the original's sensuous white floral.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
Its exceptional longevity and strong sillage, often described as 'beast mode', make it too overpowering for the office but perfect for dates and evening events where you want to make a statement. The opulent, dark vanilla and white floral accords lend themselves well to formal occasions and cooler weather casual wear.
Seasons
A rich vanilla-floral warmth that fits cooler months best, when the sweetness feels indulgent rather than cloying.
Occasions
Sensuous and sweet rather than office-appropriate, it suits evening dates and dressed-up occasions.
