Dior Hypnotic Poison is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2009, created by Annick Menardo and François Demachy. Hypnotic Poison opens with Orange Blossom and Jasmine, settles into a heart of Rose, and dries down to a base of Vanilla. Dior's Hypnotic Poison carries an Acquired verdict, a vanilla-led wear.

This is Dior's Hypnotic Poison for the true aficionados, a rich, dark, and utterly spellbinding extrait that amplifies the original's magic. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair, with some calling it a watered-down disappointment and others hailing it as the best of the Poison line.

Its potent vanilla, white floral, and rose accords, combined with reports of long-lasting performance and noticeable sillage, make it too dominant for an office setting. However, its deep, seductive character is perfectly suited for dates, sophisticated evenings, and special occasions, with some reviewers even enjoying it casually.

About

Hypnotic Poison Extrait opens with a narcotic jasmine and bright orange blossom, quickly deepening into an opulent rose heart. This floral core is enveloped by a luxurious, bittersweet vanilla base that is creamy, rich, and intensely sensual, avoiding any cloying sweetness and hinting at elusive notes of liquorice or spiced fruit.
