Dune by Dior Review
Description
Dune is not your typical women’s fragrance even with the abundance of floral notes. Instead, it is a sobering combination of flowers and woodsy accords that is supposed to counter the cloying juices of its day. It is clean, dry and musky, the strength of the last giving it an impression of being a bordering masculine scent. If the Dune feels like it's up your alley, then it is good news that you will be able to enjoy it for the rest of its day because of its great performance.
