How does it perform?
From 142 community ratings, all out of 10.
Holds up through the day and fades gently toward evening.
Leaves a light trail and stays polite in a crowd.
Sits nicely on a shelf.
The price makes you think, so a small size is a smart start.

WoodyWhat does Dior Paradise smell like?
Most voters pick spring and summer, while few choose winter. Daily wear, leisure and the office come up most often, with evenings and nights further behind. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Character votes are split closely between modern, feminine and masculine.
It opens on mandarin orange, bright and citrusy. The heart holds floral notes, almond and woody notes, where the fruity and sweet side comes through. Tonka bean closes it on the base with a soft, creamy, gourmand finish. Laura Biagiotti Essenza di Roma and Kajal Almaz have a close profile.
