Hypnotic Poison by Dior is a creamy almond and vanilla scent, sweet with a slightly wicked streak. Coconut, plum and apricot open it soft and fruity. The heart is darker than you might expect: rose, jasmine and tuberose, with rosewood, a pinch of caraway and a cool touch of lily-of-the-valley. Then it sinks into almond, vanilla, sandalwood and musk, warm, nutty and powdery. It launched in 1998 and is mostly worn by women who like their perfume sweet but grown-up. The community keeps it for winter, for evenings and nights, and for going out. On skin, the votes lean long-lasting for longevity and strong for sillage. A 3ml decant is plenty to find out whether it becomes your cold-weather signature.

The house
More from Dior
Dior began in France in 1946 as the fashion house of Christian Dior, and in 1947 it released its first perfume, Miss Dior. The scents today swing between bright and plush: bergamot and citrus on one side, powdery iris and vanilla on the other, with jasmine, rose and patchouli as recurring threads. Hypnotic Poison is the dark, almond-and-vanilla one. J'adore goes the opposite way, a glowing bouquet of white flowers with a fruity lift. Sauvage is fresh and peppery over amber, and Dior Homme Intense turns iris into a soft, woody skin scent.
