Blossom Perfumery 268 Hypnotic Poison is an Eau de Parfum. 268 Hypnotic Poison opens with Apricot, Plum, and Coconut, settles into a heart of Caraway, Rose, Jasmine, and Tuberose, and dries down to a base of Musk, Sandalwood, Vanilla, and Almond. Blossom Perfumery's 268 Hypnotic Poison carries an Acquired verdict, a vanilla-led wear.

No. 268 chases Dior's Hypnotic Poison almond-vanilla-tuberose signature closely on paper, but the bitter-almond intensity is dialled down and the sillage tapers off well before the original's famously hypnotic trail.

About

No. 268 is modelled on Dior's Hypnotic Poison, opening with apricot, plum and coconut for a fruity, slightly gourmand entrance that nods to the original's mysterious character. The heart brings tuberose, jasmine, lily of the valley, rose and caraway together in a sensual white-floral bouquet, tracking the source's blueprint reasonably closely. The base of sandalwood, almond, vanilla and musk aims for Hypnotic Poison's iconic bitter-almond warmth, but the effect here is softer and less intense, with the sweetness fading sooner and the projection dropping off within a few hours rather than lingering into the evening. It's a recognisable nod to a genuine icon, best suited for anyone wanting a taste of the mood without committing to the original's price or its all-night presence.
