Scent Description

Gris Dior unfolds like a quiet, confident statement. It starts with a fleeting brightness from bergamot, quickly enveloped by a velvety floral heart where rose and jasmine intertwine. These aren’t heady or overly sweet florals — they are airy, polished, and modern. As it settles, the base develops into a smooth, earthy mix of patchouli and oakmoss, softened by amber, sandalwood, and a clean musk finish.

The name “Gris”, meaning “gray” in French, perfectly captures the mood of the fragrance — not too bright, not too dark, but a balanced, muted sophistication. It evokes the elegance of gray cashmere, the softness of fog, or the timeless neutrality of a tailored suit.

Longevity

8 to 10+ hours on average

  • Gris Dior has excellent staying power, especially for a floral chypre.

  • On skin, it often lasts all day, with the musky-patchouli base lingering well into the drydown.

  • On clothes, it can remain noticeable for over 24 hours.

Sillage (Projection)

Moderate to strong

  • The opening projects well within the first 2–3 hours.

  • It creates a noticeable scent trail (especially in the first half of its wear), but it doesn’t overwhelm.

  • Over time, it becomes a more intimate, elegant skin scent with a soft aura.


Overall Performance Summary
