Extrait · 2014 · womens

Poison Extrait de Parfum is a concentrated reformulation of Christian Dior's iconic 1985 Poison, one of the most divisive fragrances ever created. This 2014 version maintains the original's uncompromising character while offering a more refined expression through its extrait concentration.

The fragrance opens with sage and a creamy, almost indolic tuberose paired with white rose, setting an immediately floral tone. The heart shifts toward brighter territory with grapefruit and litchi lending a fruity sweetness against persistent rose and tuberose, preventing the composition from becoming purely creamy. The base brings cassis and hazelnut into the mix, grounding the white florals with nutty, slightly earthy warmth while heliotrope and vanilla add soft almond-like undertones that linger for hours, thanks to the extrait format.

Poison Extrait works best for those with a taste for bold, opulent florals without apology. It's a cool-weather fragrance, ideal for evening wear or special occasions when you want presence and longevity. The combination of fruity brightness, creamy florals, and nutty-sweet base suggests it will appeal to The Romantic, The Hedonist, and The Heirloom sensibilities.

Fragrance Notescommunity verified
Top · 0–30 min
Sage
Sage
Earthy, slightly smoky, and herbal with a cool, clean quality that is distinctly aromatic. Sage can read as savory and culinary or as a clean, ceremonial smoke depending on how it's used. It adds a dry, confident quality to fragrances, often used in masculine compositions for its outdoor, no-fuss character.
Tuberose
Tuberose
One of the most intensely floral natural ingredients in existence, rich, creamy, and almost narcotic in its sweetness. Tuberose is polarizing by design: it's meant to be enveloping, not background. It has rubbery, vanilla-like facets that make it feel both sensual and slightly retro.
White Rose
White Rose
Heart · 30 min – 3 hrs
Grapefruit
Grapefruit
Bittersweet and juicy with a faintly metallic zing that sets it apart from sweeter citrus notes. Grapefruit is uniquely energising, it reads as clean and modern rather than traditionally 'citrusy.' It pairs effortlessly with musks, making it a staple of office-safe, all-day fragrances.
Litchi
Litchi
Also known as lychee, litchi has a delicate, floral-fruity sweetness that is lighter and more transparent than most tropical fruits. It has a slightly rose-like quality that makes it at home in floral compositions, and a clean sweetness that reads as refined rather than candy-like. Common in contemporary light florals.
Rose
Rose
The queen of floral notes and the most-used ingredient in fine perfumery. Real rose is simultaneously velvety, honeyed, and slightly spicy, nothing like the synthetic candy version. Depending on the variety used, it can anchor a composition or drift through it like a ghost, adding warmth without dominating.
Tuberose
Tuberose
One of the most intensely floral natural ingredients in existence, rich, creamy, and almost narcotic in its sweetness. Tuberose is polarizing by design: it's meant to be enveloping, not background. It has rubbery, vanilla-like facets that make it feel both sensual and slightly retro.
Base · 3–12 hrs
Cassis
Cassis
The French name for blackcurrant, cassis has a dark, distinctive fruitiness with a slightly catty, herbal edge that makes it unlike any other berry. It's more complex than blackcurrant juice: both sharp and rich, with an almost savory depth. A signature opening note of certain classic and contemporary fragrances.
Hazelnut
Hazelnut
Warm, nutty, and slightly sweet, hazelnut has a roasted, earthy quality with a gentle creaminess that makes it feel luxurious. It adds depth to gourmand fragrances without the heaviness of chocolate or the sharpness of coffee. Often used alongside vanilla and praline to build complex, sophisticated sweet bases.
Heliotrope
Heliotrope
Powdery, sweet, and slightly almond-like, heliotrope is the quintessential 'retro' note of Victorian-era perfumery, now experiencing a fashionable revival. It smells of sugar, vanilla, and just enough floral to keep it interesting. In modern fragrances it tends to read as nostalgic, soft, and unapologetically pretty.
Vanilla
Vanilla
Warm, sweet, and universally appealing, vanilla is to fragrance what salt is to cooking. Real vanilla is complex and slightly smoky, though most perfumery vanilla is synthetic and reads as clean, sweet, and creamy. It slows the evaporation of other notes and is the reason certain fragrances feel like a second skin.
