Christian Dior Hypnotic Poison Eau de Toilette Spray

When I was a little girl I was taught that familiar rhyme, ‘Sugar and Spice and all things nice’ if I remember rightly, wasn’t that what girls were made of? I had wanted a bottle of this since it came out (I think it was released in about 1999) but never really had the money, or forgot about it to get some. Well, when Danny surprised me with a trip to Milan last year and we were at the airport, not being able to resist a walk around the perfume shop ...
...£15 cheaper than in the high street, so bought some. Here’s my op on a very Hypnotic perfume, Hypnotic Poison xxx .;:~ What does it look like? ~:;. The packaging is in 2 parts as it often is with perfume, firstly the box and secondly the perfume bottle it’s self. Well, both are rather plain yet alluring. The box is bright red and very square like. It has a small logo on the front which basically says ‘Hypnotic Poison’ in goldish writing followed ...

Review of Christian Dior Hypnotic Poison Eau de Toilette Spray

...about an amazing fragrance from Christian Dior. To be honest some of the perfumes from Dior are not exactly my cup of tea, some of them I find too spicy and too overloaded (if that makes sense) that after trying them on I feel a bit nauseous. This perfume is in fact not at all for the faint-hearted but after all it is a product I do enjoy wearing when I go out during the weekend and want to make an "impact"! It is certianly something I would not ...
...can be too much not only for yourself but for people around you! Boots in fact describes it as "An intoxicatingly sensual alchemy that leads to obsession!" and I agree that this definitely reflects the nature of this product. This fragrance is an oriental woody spicy fragrance which is aboundant in Jasmine, Vanilla and Musk, one spritz or two are definitely enough and you are sure you do not need to top it up during the day. It definitely stays ...

Review of Christian Dior Hypnotic Poison Eau de Toilette Spray

This is the second one of my three planned perfume reviews for this weekend. As mentioned in my Review of Dolce Vita, I did some perfume testing at a Dior counter on Friday. I've been exploring Dior very gradually. Most of their fragrances are very distinctive, some are even hard to like. It's good that they don't release insipid crowd pleasers every few months, but I've just been able to handle a bit at a time. The outcome is that Hypnotic Poison ...
...must have. As the picture shows, it's the red one among the Poison bottles. The box is a matching but darker mottled red. I might be a bit slow in catching up on fragrances. It often seems when I try a fragrance that I've actually known it for a while. It was the same in this case, and initially I was slightly disappointed for that reason. The smell I was familiar with was pleasant enough, both on others and on me for the first half hour. But it ...

...any: hypnotic poison of Christian dior.

Finally I arrived in perfumery I went towards the Christian dior and there I saw the bottle of hypnotic poison quickly I put some on my wrist to test it. **time-out** at first sight there is air of go but at the end of 2 or 3 second the ...

Review of Christian Dior Hypnotic Poison Eau de Toilette Spray

I recently received a bottle of Poison as a gift. I am usually really fussy about choosing my own perfume, but this scent is truly divine. In the past I have worn CKOne, Diorella and Paloma Picasso and have never had any comments, but now I wear Poison daily I have received numerous positive comments. To me, Poison conjures up images of souks in Morocco and incense-filled temples in the Far East. That may sound corny, but the heavy sandalwood notes ...
...me of my travels in exotic faraway places. It is a very heavy, sensual scent - perfect for the evening and romantic nights out, but I think it can be worn during the daytime too. For those who have tried Paloma Picasso, I think it is very similar, but heavier. The deep purple bottle is elegant and attractive - heart-shaped curved glass with a twisted, fluted top make it distinctive amongst the bottles of foundation and cotton wool! The only disadvantage ...

Review of Christian Dior Hypnotic Poison Eau de Toilette Spray

...I was walking by the Christian Dior counter. Musk and sandalwood combined with a strong scent of Vanilla, chocolate and marzipan, makes this one a must for all you lovers of sickly but sensual smelling perfumes. I tend to wear this perfume when I go for a night out or for a more romantic occasion. This was the perfume I wore when I met my boyfriend a couple of years back, I don't wear it as often as I use to but whenever I do he always comments that ...

Review of Christian Dior Hypnotic Poison Eau de Toilette Spray

I first came across Hypnotic Poison whilst I was doing some research on fragrance advertising. I thought the advert was very poignant and I really could not relate to it. However, it did make me want to smell it and ever since then, my boyfriend's life hasn't been the same! I try to mention it all the time as hints for him to buy it for me for Christmas, but so far, he hasn't latched on! The scent is just heaven. It has a vanilla - musk type scent ...
...spray on a sample in the shops! For those of you that don't like the advert, don't let that put you off! I personally don't think the scent matches the image of the advert and if you were to do a blind test on it, you might just be as surprised as I was. I would say its for women who like to feel sensuous. Not for the clubbers amongst us as it's too feminine. ...

Review of Christian Dior Hypnotic Poison Eau de Toilette Spray

I Love my perfumes and i cant wait for the next new one to hit the shops, I rarely buy the same one twice i prefer to keep trying different ones. But This.... Well i'm on my 4th bottle now. It has to be the most sensational smell i've ever come across and it's very unique and distinctive once you've smelt it you'll never fiorget it and it can't be confused with any other perfume on the market today. Its very deep smelling and you only need use ...
...value for money because the bottle seems to last a lot longer than others. People who smell it on you will ask what your wearing if they don't already know and its long lasting too so doesn't wear off through the day. The name speaks for its self its very hipnotic indeed and has you wanting more from the first time the scent hits you. It comes in a plump round shaped red bottle with a black lid that clicks into place so its not easily lost. It ...

Review of Christian Dior Hypnotic Poison Eau de Toilette Spray

Hypnotic is an apt word to use for this fragrance as there is something very addictive about it which draws you in. Yes, it's sweet and if you don't like vanilla then this fragrance is not for you as that is its predominant scent, however, it also has baby powder and almond undertones which make it a warm, clean smell. If you liked the smell of Play Doh as a child, then you will like this - it's a more grown up version of that scent. I find myself ...

Review of Christian Dior Hypnotic Poison Eau de Toilette Spray

This perfume by Dior is very unique fragrance. I first tested it on paper and thought it pleasant, so I also tested it on my skin and it smelt 100 times better. It seems to work very well with the body’s natural fragrance, it smelt like it belonged on a person, and that person smelled naturally fruity. It also has some unusual notes of vanilla in it, a scent that suggests of the exotic. I’ve heard a lot of love-hate relationships with this perfume. ...
...(18-20) really don’t like it. I found the target market for this product seems to linger more with the elder generation, as it is a heavier scent. I would have to say this perfumes weakness is it can be a bit overpowering. It is a very strong fragrance, which I personally love, but it definitely can’t be classed as subtle. Also I have heard it described as an “old lady scent” which is usually associated with those heavy more dusky scents, and whilst ...

Review of Christian Dior Hypnotic Poison Eau de Toilette Spray

I bought this product as a treat to myself, using my Boots points actually as I only ever have had fragrances as presents before, Samsara had been my previous favourite. I t was probably the packaging and advertising that initially attracted me to it, but then it was tested, I let it settle for an hour while I shopped and i was hooked, its first notes disap[ppeared leaving a gorgeous warm vanilla scent...beautiful!I find it to be more of an evening ...

Review of Christian Dior Hypnotic Poison Eau de Toilette Spray

This is my favourite perfume of all time! It's absolutely gorgeous and reminds of the smell of play-doh but maybe that's just me! I bought mine in France as part of a set with a clutch bag and moisturiser but really I'd have been happy with the perfume on its own. Hypnotic Poison makes you feel a million dollars every time you put it on which is just what you expect from Dior. Even the bottle's nice! A few years ago they brought out a limited edition ...

Review of Christian Dior Hypnotic Poison Eau de Toilette Spray

hypnotic poison certainly knocks you dead, mmmm, its dark and dusky, but also creamy in a way. Compared with the other two poison varieties, its sweeter i think, but its sickly like treacle tastes, gloopy. it is definately my preferred poison. its not too overpowering like the origional, with its creamy overtones, and it lacks the tang of tendre. tendre is really nasty. really. its the sort of thing a make up advisor from a crappy australian department ...
