Dior Higher Energy is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2003, created by Natalie Gracia-Cetto and Carlos Viñals.

A punchy, clean burst of grapefruit, juniper and green spice that feels like a chilled energy drink for your skin. Effortless and invigorating, this is a go-to for casual confidence and unforced charisma.

About

Higher Energy is a kinetic blend of zesty grapefruit, brisk juniper and refreshing mint, set atop a juicy melon and pineapple cocktail. Vibrant pepper and nutmeg provide aromatic lift, while a base of cedar and vetiver grounds the composition with subtle woods and mossy undertones. The overall effect is sparkling, dynamic and undeniably fresh - a scent that radiates energy, modernity and breezy self-assurance. Its moderate projection and crisp profile make it perfect for daytime and active moments.
