Dior Miss Dior was launched in 1947. Created by Jean Carles and Paul Vacher, it is a chypre floral. This is the Oakmoss-laden dominatrix of perfumes. This is old world glamour with stilettos and feminine wiles of the softest kind - contrasts between a toughness and a sweet ladylike softness.

Michael Edwards notes that the perfume was influenced by Coty Chypre and Balmain Vent Vert and that Dior asked his perfumers to create a perfume that felt like falling in love.
