Holy Peony

by François Demachy

Dior Holy Peony is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2019, created by François Demachy. Holy Peony settles into a heart of Peony, Woody, Red Fruits, and Rose. Dior's Holy Peony carries a Favourite verdict, a powdery-led wear.

This one is divisive among the Prive collection. It's a pretty, uncomplicated floral-fruity, but many find it too simple, too rosy for a "Holy Peony", and a touch overpriced for what you get. Others adore its delicate charm and surprising longevity.

About

Holy Peony unfurls a delicate bouquet led by a lush, slightly dewy rose, often overshadowing the promised peony. Juicy red fruits provide a sweet and airy counterpoint, hinting at apricot nectar. As it settles, a clean, gentle musk emerges, offering a soft landing to the bright floral heart, while a subtle woody-green undercurrent adds a touch of grounded sophistication.
