Dior New Look 1947 is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018, created by François Demachy. New Look 1947 opens with Pink Pepper, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, Tuberose, and Ylang-Ylang, and dries down to a base of Vanilla and Benzoin. Dior's New Look 1947 carries a Statement verdict, a spicy-led wear.

This discontinued Dior gem is a love-it-or-hate-it affair, drawing comparisons to classic, mature fragrances. While some adore its powdery, vintage charm, others find it too 'grandma' for their taste. It's a genuine shame it's gone, creating a frenzy among those who cherish its unique character.

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Its elegant, somewhat vintage floral-amber profile makes it perfect for formal events and romantic dates, where its refined nature can truly shine. Though some find it suitable for a dressy casual look, its powdery sweetness and moderate sillage mean it's not ideal for the gym or a high-impact office environment.
