Dior 1972 Edp
ella
Dior ella is an Eau de Parfum launched in 1972, created by Edmond Roudnitska. The fragrance opens with Lemon, Basil, Melon, and Green, settles into a heart of Honeysuckle, Rose, Peach, and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Vetiver, Patchouli, Oakmoss, and Musk.
Our verdict on ella: Acquired
This Roudnitska classic is divisive, with true vintage formulations hitting entirely different than modern ones. Expect a rollercoaster of fresh citrus and green notes, underpinned by surprisingly animalic musk and oakmoss - a true love-it-or-hate-it gem.

Best Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Best Occasions
Its potent 'old-school' character and strong sillage in its vintage forms mean it's perhaps too commanding for a modern office, better suited for casual wear or as a statement piece in a formal setting. While some find it refreshing, others perceive a 'dirty' note that might not suit all date situations. The fresh, green, and citrus elements make it a good call for warmer, casual days.
