Gris Dior
Eau de parfum
The grey of the house of Dior turned into scent: a rosy chypre, elegant and full of nuance.
Gris Dior translates into scent the couturier's favourite colour, that of the avenue Montaigne salons. Bright citrus opens the composition, then rose and violet lay down a powdery, almost textile softness.
Oakmoss gives the whole its chypre framework: a green, woody shadow that holds the flowers without weighing them down. A unisex fragrance of great restraint, worn like a perfectly cut suit.

Gris Dior in detail
Gris Dior belongs to La Collection Privée Christian Dior, a series of unisex fragrances conceived like couture silhouettes, each drawn from a memory of Christian Dior. This one turns grey, the house's signature colour, into fragrance: a rosy chypre, elegant and full of nuance.
Dior lists its notes without sorting them into stages. Citrus notes bring a luminous freshness. Rose and violet form a floral, powdery heart. Oakmoss, the historic signature of chypres, gives the fragrance its green, woody depth, like a soft grey fabric.
Gris Dior is worn by day, in spring and autumn: at the office, at lunch, or on a day when you want an elegant fragrance that is not overstated. It is a good chypre to discover the family.
Three chypres in our catalogue come close: Portobello Road by Memo Paris shares rose, with vetiver and patchouli; Rose Hubris by Ex Nihilo brings together rose and oakmoss around lychee; Diaghilev by Roja Parfums pairs violet and oakmoss in a richer chypre.
