Mata Hari

7.8

DSH Perfumes · 2010

Floral · Green · Fruity

DSH Perfumes Mata Hari is a floral, green-edged perfume for women, set on a sweet, spicy and resinous base. It opens with a fresh citrus of bergamot, neroli and orange, sharpened by green galbanum. The heart is a rich floral built from ylang-ylang, jasmine sambac, tuberose and rose, with clove and cinnamon adding spice. In the base, vanilla, sandalwood, benzoin and tobacco pull it towards a sweet, woody, resinous finish. Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate, so it leaves a warm, dense trail without filling the room, though these ratings rest on only a few votes. It is a women's fragrance that suits those who like oriental and floral styles.

Diorling (2026)

8.2

Dior · 2026

Fresh · Floral · Green

Dior Diorling (2026) is a feminine chypre that pairs a green, floral side with a leathery, powdery character. Oakmoss and galbanum give the scent a cool, green backbone, while jasmine wraps it in a soft, creamy floral note. Leathery notes and costus add a woody, faintly animal depth, and aldehydes keep the whole blend fresh and bright. Spicy and resinous touches show up in the accords too. Created by Francis Kurkdjian, it follows a line that lovers of classic chypres will find familiar. Lancôme Sikkim (2005) and Dior Diorama (2026) have a close profile.

L'Étole de Vison

7.3

DSH Perfumes · 2017

Floral · Fruity · Spicy

DSH Perfumes L'Étole de Vison is a floral-oriental women's fragrance that sets soft peach against an animalic, resinous base. The top opens with aldehydes, peach and peach skin, giving a smooth, slightly powdery fruitiness. In the heart, orris root and Bulgarian rose otto lead, with champaca absolute rounding out the floral side. The base is warm and animalic, built on castoreum, civet, ambergris and musk, then deepened by oud, brown oakmoss and Australian sandalwood into something woody and spicy. DSH Perfumes Rendezvous and Lily Farouche Absolut have a close profile.

Dubai Citrine

7.9

Bond No. 9 · 2016

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Bond No. 9 Dubai Citrine is a fresh, citrusy opening that settles into a floral, sweet and creamy body, made for women. The top is bergamot, fir balsam, kelp and red berries, so it starts bright and fruity. In the heart, magnolia, lily, geranium and tagetes add a soft floral layer. The base of vetiver, amber and musk dries down warm, sweet and oriental. Voters rate its longevity and sillage as good, though the number of votes is small. With no season or occasion data, it is hard to say when it suits best. Byredo Bal d'Afrique and Khadlaj Karus Gold Absolu have a close profile.
