Dolce Vita

by Pierre Bourdon , Maurice Roger

Dior Dolce Vita is a Parfum launched in 1994, created by Pierre Bourdon and Maurice Roger. Dolce Vita opens with Rose, Peach, Lily, and Cardamom, settles into a heart of Magnolia, Apricot, Rosewood, and Cinnamon, and dries down to a base of Coconut, Sandalwood, Cedar, and Vanilla. Dior's Dolce Vita carries an Acquired verdict, a warm spicy-led wear.

A divisive powerhouse from the 90s, Dolce Vita Parfum is pure warmth and spiced fruit. Expect a potent, almost boozy experience - it's a love-it-or-hate-it scent that some find 'sunshine in a bottle' and others a 'heating heavy' fruit compote.

About

Dolce Vita Parfum opens with a burst of spiced peach and cardamom, softened by a gentle rose and bright bergamot. The heart unfolds into a rich, powdery magnolia and apricot, warmed by cinnamon and rosewood, leading to a plush, creamy dry down. Vanilla and coconut melt into a sandalwood and cedar embrace, creating a golden, woody-sweet aura that lingers beautifully. It's a journey from fruity zest to opulent warmth.
