Dior’s prices may be steep, and their recent decision to reduce bottle sizes wasn’t well received, but the quality is undeniable. They offer free next-day delivery — even on weekends — and the packaging is sumptuous.

Vanilla Diorama is a fragrance I’ve grown to appreciate, and I had a feeling I’d eventually own a bottle. It’s fine for summer wear, but it’s probably best suited to cool autumn days. The blend of orange top notes with creamy vanilla, rum, and a hint of light chocolate cake actually reminds me of the far more expensive Lost in Paris by Roja Parfums.
