Vintage "Gift".

I tried this fragrance carefully.
First I bought bottling. Recently, I finally received a bottle of Christian Dior Poison - vintage "Gift". There is a little residue in the bottle. In the case of Poison, by "vintage" I mean the pre-rock formulation that turned smoky, dark gothic plum into grape soda.

The reformulation took place somewhere in the mid-2000s.
Correct me if anyone knows better.
Around the same time, the massive oval bottle was transformed into a round apple, the words "Christian Dior" were reduced to the surname "Dior" and the words "Eau de Toilette" disappeared completely.

The address also changed.
Until 1990 - 1991: 30 Avenue Hoche, Paris.
After 1990-91 it became 33 Avenue Hoche, Paris

Regarding batch code. For example, if there are 5 characters (number, letter, number, number, number), then it was published before 1998! The first digit always indicates the year.
The barcode and the volume also play a role.

The classic Poison is quite well preserved. Stays long lasting, loud, sillage, rich and intense. And the older it is, the more beautiful I find it.

The aroma is very strong. I use it sparingly, just as armor for another difficult day, to withstand the onslaught of life's trials and not break from them. Therefore, the rest in the bottle lasts me a long time.

I like the vintage Poison better than the new one. But the important thing is that it is at least made that way. And new generations discover new facets of a wonderful flavor.
But if possible, get to know the great vintage Poison.
