Description
Conceived in 1998 by perfumers Annick Ménardo and Françoise Caron for the house of Dior, Hypnotic Poison became an immediate cultural icon. The tropical-fruity opening of coconut, plum and apricot creates an exotic, almost edible first impression that signals this is no ordinary floral.
The heart — Brazilian rosewood, jasmine, tuberose, caraway, rose and lily-of-the-valley — is a complex garden of contrasts, fusing the woody exoticism of the Amazon with European floral traditions in a single, spellbinding chord.
Vanilla, almond, sandalwood and musk anchor the base in warm, enveloping oriental territory. The dry-down is long and intensely skin-close, making Hypnotic Poison most compelling in cooler weather.
For wholesale buyers, Hypnotic Poison represents a blue-chip stock item: a Dior classic with consistent demand from both loyal customers and first-time buyers discovering the Poison lineage for the first time.
