Christian Dior's Poison is not just a women's perfume. This is a legendary fragrance that has become a symbol of an entire era that many women are nostalgic about today. Recognizable for its cheeky, juicy sweetness that annoys many and captivates others, Poison has been delighting with new interpretations for the fourth decade. All of them are enclosed in a bottle similar to the original version, and their compositions deviate from it, remaining true to the nature of that very "poison". After all, this is exactly how "poison" is translated.

1. Poison (1985)
In 1985, the very first Poison by Edouard Fleschier appeared on the perfume shelves. Its intoxicating composition with a loud sweet plum drove women crazy, who fell in love with its enveloping and enveloping warmth. Of the entire line, it is the original scent that has the brightest and most complex pyramid.
In 1987, Poison won the FiFi Awards for Womens Fragrance of the Year for luxury fragrances.
