Christian Dior Le Nectar de J’Adore ~ new perfume :: Now Smell This

Christian Dior has launched Le Nectar de J’Adore, a new limited edition luxury version of 1999’s J’Adore fragrance for women, in a one-of-a-kind bottle designed by Marc Quinn.

In pursuit of striking aesthetic innovations for its exceptional bottles, Dior Parfums invited renowned artist Marc Quinn to reinterpret the iconic J’adore amphora. This creative collaboration resulted in a unique masterpiece: a hypnotic work wrought from lustrous gold and silver that celebrates the passion for flowers and gardens shared by both Quinn and Dior. The spectacular creation places the J’adore amphora at the heart of a gleaming orchid sculpted from steel, where it nestles like a glass and gold pistil. Within this botanical reimagining, the amphora becomes flower nectar, its iconic elongated cap meticulously hand-gilded with gold leaf.

In this exclusive version of J’adore, the magnificent floral heart has been enhanced with absolutes of centifolia rose and jasmine grandiflorum. Enriched with a Grasse tuberose pomade—created using an ancestral enfleurage technique—the fragrance celebrates the radiant, round and sensual notes of this captivating flower.

Christian Dior Le Nectar de J’Adore is available in 200 ml Extrait. (If you have to ask…)
