Lights on Catherine Dior, the real Miss Dior

Catherine-Dior-the-real-Miss-Dior​-01

Christian Dior’s sister was a woman of strong character, heroine of the Resistance. She was the vigilant guardian of her brother’s memory, always preferring the present moment to nostalgia worship. Simplicity, courage and loyalty seemed to be the watchwords of Catherine Dior’s life. Miss Dior was created for her… A brother’s discreet tribute to his beloved sister.

Created in 1947 by Jean Charles and Paul Vacher, Miss Dior is a Chypre floral. Top notes are aldehydes, gardenia, clary saga, galbanum, and bergamot. Middle-notes are iris, carnation, jasmine, neroli, lilly-of-the-valley, orris root, rose, and narcissus. Base notes are vetiver, sandalwood, amber, oakmoss, patchouli, labdanum and leather.
