Dior Sakura is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018, created by François Demachy. Sakura opens with Green, settles into a heart of Cherry Blossom, Rose, Jasmine, and Hedione, and dries down to a base of Musk, Violet, and Mimosa. Dior's Sakura carries a Favourite verdict, a floral-led wear.

Sakura is a delicate floral that evokes spring's ephemeral beauty, though many reckon it's a bit pricey for a scent that's often compared to more affordable options. It's a clean, serene crowd-pleaser, but don't expect it to shout; this one whispers.

About

Opening with a crisp green lightness, Sakura quickly blossoms into a soft, airy floral heart dominated by cherry blossom and delicate rose. A whisper of jasmine and sunny mimosa adds depth, while a gentle, clean musk and powdery violet linger in the dry down. It's a fresh, almost soapy, take on florals, evoking expensive toiletries and freshly laundered silk.
