072 Poison Girl

072 takes Dior's Poison Girl and softens the edges. The top opens with bitter orange and lemon that read brighter and more generically citrus than Poison Girl's tarter grapefruit-forward attack, settling faster into sweetness. The rose heart is where the dupe is most faithful, pairing Damask and Grasse rose with orange blossom for a genuinely floral, slightly candied middle that recalls the original's rebellious-femme character, if flattened into a single note rather than the layered rose-almond interplay Dior built. The base is the dupe's strong suit: vanilla, almond, tonka bean, tolu balsam and heliotrope stack into a warm, powdery gourmand that lingers reasonably well on skin, even if sandalwood and cashmeran don't give it quite the same creamy depth or projection as the designer version. Good for testing whether the flirtatious-gourmand rose profile suits you before committing to the original bottle.
