At Dior, everything is a sign, everything has meaning. Christian Dior took pride in his passion for the arts of divination and hidden lucky charms: he paid special attention to the lining of his garment, where he discreetly tucked a lucky piece of wood each day.

Francis Kurkdjian, Dior Perfume Creative Director, someone also attentive to signs, has a habit of slipping a protective sugar cube into the lapel of his jacket.

Woody and vanilla, the mysterious trail of Bois Talisman Eau de Parfum draws on the encounter of these two superstitions: Christian Dior's piece of wood and Francis Kurkdjian's sugar cube.

Powerful and woody, the Bois Talisman silhouette is delicately lined with a trilogy of sweet vanilla notes. An olfactory composition in which the cedar note serves as a mystical shrine for an opulent vanilla note, unfurled in all its facets, this scent is to be worn like a fragrance talisman.

Christian Dior's superstitions have always touched my heart. Bois Talisman is born of the passionate encounter between our two superstitions: the sugar cube tucked into my pocket melds with the pieces of wood that were never far from Christian Dior's reach. From sugar, I moved towards all facets of an intense vanilla to create the magical duo: Bois Talisman."

Application Tips

Spray Bois Talisman on pulse points – neck and wrists – or on a mitzah scarf.

CEDAR NOTE

A powerful woody note that evokes the pencils Christian Dior used for his sketches.

VANILLA NOTE

Opulent, generous et heightened, the vanilla note finds expression in Bois Talisman through several extraction processes that reveal different facets, from the softest to the most powerful.
