Dior Higher is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2001, created by Olivier Gillotin and Olivier Pescheux. Higher opens with Lemon, Pear, Peach, and Basil, settles into a heart of Cypress, Pepper, Cardamom, and Rosemary, and dries down to a base of Musk and Cedar. Dior's Higher carries a Favourite verdict, an aromatic-led wear.

A crisp, juicy take on the woody aromatic genre, Higher is a breezy, citrusy-fresh outlier in the Dior men's line. Effortlessly modern and bright, it's perfect for the office or warm days but may lack punch for colder nights.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Fall

The bright citrus, green, and fruity notes make Higher ideal for spring and summer, offering a crisp, invigorating freshness that's less suited for cold weather. Its airy, aromatic profile fades in winter but can transition into early fall.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Casual
Also Works:
Sport

Subtle projection and a light, clean scent make this office and casual-friendly. Its fresh, modern vibe feels welcoming on dates and sporty occasions, but it lacks the depth and richness for most formal events.

About

Higher Eau de Toilette by Dior opens with a vibrant rush of pear, lemon, and basil, giving way to a lively heart of pepper, cypress, rosemary, and cardamom. Subtle green and fruity facets float above a clean, soft woody base of cedar, vetiver, and musk. The overall impression is airy, juicy, and uplifting, with a modern urban feel. Fresh but never sharp, its low-key projection and subtle warmth make it an unobtrusive yet confident signature for those who want to feel invigorated and contemporary without shouting.
