About this fragrance

Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.

Dune by Christian Dior, launched in 1991, is an Oriental Woody fragrance for women. The top notes open with a blend of Brazilian Rosewood, Aldehydes, Mandarin Orange, Bergamot, and Peony, creating a bright yet slightly powdery introduction. As it settles, the heart reveals Lily, Ylang-Ylang, Wallflower, Jasmine, and Rose, a lush floral bouquet that adds depth and warmth.

The base is where Dune truly shines: Amber, Sandalwood, Benzoin, Oakmoss, Vanilla, Patchouli, and Musk combine to form a rich, balsamic, and woody foundation. With main accords of woody, amber, balsamic, warm spicy, powdery, and citrus, this scent is complex and enveloping. It suits collectors who appreciate vintage orientals with a powdery, resinous character. Ideal for evening wear or cooler months, Dune evokes a sense of timeless elegance and is a must-try for those who love scents like Opium or Cinnabar.

Before you buy

A batch code cannot prove authenticity on its own, but it can expose contradictions — a code that decodes to a date before the fragrance existed, or a bottle and box that disagree.
