Desire Eau de Parfum vs Miss Dior (2017) Eau de Parfum
ScentArt
Which Should You Buy?
This one's a bit of a mixed bag; some find it a more 'viscous' take on Miss Dior, others find it a cheap knock-off. If you like your florals with a bright citrus kick and don't mind a lack of 'crispness', give it a go, especially in spring.
A modern classic that’s been cruelly snatched away. Miss Dior 2017 offers a sophisticated, warm rose and citrus blend that charmed many, leaving a void that its reformulations can't fill. A deeply mourned gem among its loyal following.
