About this fragrance

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

Green Poison, launched by Christian Dior in 1985, is an Oriental Floral that opens with a vivid, fruity burst: juicy plum and wild berries are sharpened by coriander, anise, and Brazilian rosewood. This bright, spiced introduction quickly gives way to a lavish heart where tuberose and jasmine meet the smoky depth of incense and opoponax, while white honey and cinnamon add a rich, sweet warmth. Carnation, African orange flower, and rose weave through, creating a complex, heady bouquet that feels both opulent and slightly mysterious.

The base settles into a lasting embrace of vanilla, amber, and sandalwood, cushioned by heliotrope, musk, vetiver, and Virginia cedar. The result is a deep, resinous trail with a soft, powdery finish. This fragrance suits collectors who appreciate bold, sweet-spicy orientals with a pronounced fruity character. It is ideal for evening wear or cooler months, and its vintage formulation offers a density and nuance rarely found in modern releases. For those who love the drama of 1980s perfumery, Green Poison is a compelling addition.
