Dior Homme Sport is a classic citrus forward fragrance that has had a few re-formulations over the years. This offering from DUA really takes the top notes of citrus and amps them up just a bit, using a unique method with the CO² Ginger. The ginger adds a nice depth and spiciness to the citrus dominant opening, and lasts through the mid. The vetiver, lavender, rosemary, and woodsy notes really help keep the scent going for hours. The newer re-formulations from Dior have made this a tough purchase for anyone who has appreciated this scent from its origins. The 'ol batch' of Dior Homme Sport, with ginger and elemi resin IS BACK, with The DUA Brand adding their touch; making this citrus, woody classic last for hours....a rarity for this DNA. Safe to say that this could be a year round (sig scent) fragrance due to the cedar, rosemary, and sandalwood in the dry down. Thank you, DUA, for producing one of my favorite true classic spring/summer scents, with better longevity. Citrus forward, elegant, yet playful, and an easy reach for anytime of day or night during the warmer months. I'll be back for more.
*****edit: I gifted a Friend a bottle and he is interested in purchasing more....enough said :)

I’m shook
I’m just so absolutely amazed and pleased with this! I’ve put this in my cart so many times and removed it, just not sure about it. But I was afraid of DUA vaulting it before I could try it. I’ve owned two 50 ml bottles as well as a 100 ml bottle from 2014 (original release) of Dior Homme Eau. My most refreshing scent, one of the absolute best. So sad Dior has gone down more basic and sadder/banal paths these days. But anyways, I rarely use what I have left as I get scared at the idea of not having it. I finally bought a bottle, I actually received it yesterday. I usually wait a month, after doing 1-3 sprays and letting it sit, to see how it has matured and then compare it to the original. This one, from the first spray…I could absolutely smell my beloved Dior Homme Eau. This is incredible! It projects for hours, it’s so sublime. I am ecstatic about it! Wow! Can’t wait to see how it performs after a month, but if it is any better than this then…that’s just beyond impressive. Will definitely be buying backups in the future. And if you’re lamenting the loss of the original, please don’t make yourself sad…just buy this and enjoy!

Dior Homme Intense was one of the first fragrances that pulled me into this whole fragrance obsession. The second I smelled it in the store, I was hooked—it’s so delicious and rich that I just had to grab a full bottle right away. It’s got this chocolaty, lipsticky vibe but still feels pretty masculine. I’d say it’s unisex but definitely leans more on the masculine side. That said, women can totally pull this off too. This isn’t something I’d wear on a regular day. It’s the kind of scent you want when you’re dressing up—like for a wedding, an event, or a date. It smells super luxurious and has this sexy, confident feel to it. Honestly, it’s one of my all-time favorites.
