J'adore by Dior Review

I absolutely love this perfume and it’s one you’ll find in my small collection often.  I have bought this for myself a number of times and received it as gifts (sets or individual) since it was released and each time it never failed to take me to a wonderful place of delicious notes.  This was one of my high school perfumes; some would say it’s a waste but for me perfume is to be used. 

It's pricey yes but you really are paying for what you get and if I met a rather hasty demise tomorrow atleast I know that I didn’t waste my money.  It comes in a pristine white box with gold lettering – seriously the packaging is luxurious and nothing short of elegant.  It’s in a lovely simple round bottle (when the lid is off) with a rather tall golden top and a round clear ball with J’adore embossed inside.

One of the things I love the most about the scent is that it's quite buttery with a hint of powderiness in the notes. There is a lovely blend of very light musk, sweet citrus and florals. I find that there is a subtlety to this perfume where it's not overpowering but there is enough fragrance left behind when you walk past others.

The longevity isn’t as long as you would expect from an EDP but the subtlety of notes that lingers behind makes up for it.  For me this perfume always creates an ambiance of calm around me; I love how the scent just puts me at ease and I just feel so clean when I get a whiff of it.

Admittedly the smell of J'adore today smells different to the one I wore prancing around in the school courtyard many moons ago but I still appreciate that this fragrance is one of a kind. It's quite a popular perfume but I don't often "smell" it around. Do I get sick of the scent sometimes?  Yes but I’m spritz-happy so it’s only natural that I would however I would never say no to owning this. 

J'adore is my all time FAVOURITE perfume . It does lean to the more expensive side of my perfumes but I have found i only use very little amounts to get the desired amount that I need . It also last on my skin ALL day when some other fragrances seam to fade away mid day resulting a need to reapply using up twice as much product .

J'adore has been my staple day fragrance for a long time- my mum's too! It's fresh and feminine, lasting but not overpowering. It's a little sophisticated but I don't know anyone who doesn't like the fragrance. The bottle is appealing, classy and easy to grip (I have tiny hands!). The scent has good staying power and becomes a little more intense if you sweat a little while wearing it- which is actually nice. Definitely one of my all time favourites.

Dior j'adore Eau de parfum comes packed in a long white packing with the word J'adore printed in gold, an oval shaped golden Dior symbol on the top and Dior printed in gold at the lower end of the box. The perfume bottle is very unique and different and the perfume has a transparent golden color. This fragrance is unique in itself. I don't think there is a single lady that I know who doesn't want to use or own this. This is Christian Dior's universally famous perfume and I longed for it when I didn't have it. It is very pleasant and sweet smelling. You can immediately smell the bergamot (top note) and then comes the fruity smell which I think is because of peach and mandarin notes. After some time, when these notes settle down, you start to smell the floral notes which are jasmine and rose. It is really long wearing, though I must say, the floral notes in it are just a wee bit overpowering after a while especially the jasmine note. But, I don't mind it as I like floral notes. I have a 50 ml bottle and I think its going to last me quite a while. It is safe to be worn all year round and everyday. I certainly would want to repurchase it, but as I said, a little goes a long way, it would be quite a while and who knows in the meantime, I would start eyeing some other perfume.

This is a bit of an expensive indulgence for me, but it does last for ages and the scent is really beautiful - sweet and flowery but not cloying. Gorgeous bottle, gorgeous long-lasting smell.

I love love love J'adore! This isn't in my collection of fragrances at the moment but often is. It's times like this when I don't have it on my shelf that I smell it on someone and it reminds me that I must purchase more. Not only do I love the scent that remains on me all day. But the bottle is so sweet and elegant.

My mum bought me this perfume when I was a teenager and it was my first ever proper perfume. I felt so grown up! I loved the smell and wore it a lot for a long time. Since then I have changed preference- or maybe just realised which scents suit me better, but this is still a nice scent. Tge bottle is stylish, but not practical for being in a handbag. The lid would come off all the time and my car keys chipped the gold off the bottle so it looked ugly in the end. Still a great perfume and great memories.

Such a beautiful pure floral fragrance.

There is not a single ingredient in this that compromises the exquisite quality of the scent. This is for when you want to wear a fragrance that doesn't bother with spice, vanilla, sickly-sweetness or fruit notes as "fillers".

The white flowers within it are so delicate and yet long lasting. I feel like I can use this regardless of my age. I've bought this for myself, younger friends and my mother alike. Again, simply timeless.

I received this product from a family member as a present and it is my most cherished perfume! It smells amazing and come in very sophisticated, pretty packaging. The floral scent lasts for a very long time but isn't too overwhelming. If it wasn't for the price, I would buy another bottle, but being a student, it definitely is a luxury. One of my favorites

This is my go to classic. It is easy wearing, not over powering but still sophisticated.

It has a great mix of 'fresh' and 'fruity' for me, it isn't too sweet so easy to wear all day. It is also multi dimensional so doesn't smell cheap.

The bottle is beautiful, the perfume lasts on the skin really well and it is a smell which is inoffensive for office wear!

Great day or night perfume.
