Miss Dior Chérie was a fragrance created by Christine Nagel for Christian Dior. At the time John Galliano served as Dior’s fashion designer and creative director, overseeing Nagel’s development of the unusual, youth-oriented strawberry-and-popcorn eau de parfum. Miss Dior Chérie was available from 2005 to 2011: after perfumer François Demachy joined Dior, Miss Dior Chérie was reformulated and renamed Miss Dior.
Fragrance history
The first version of a fragrance to go by the name “Miss Dior” dates to 1947, shortly after the Dior fashion line debuted its acclaimed New Look collection.[1] That perfume, a floral chypre with leather and galbanum notes,[1] created by Paul Vacher and Jean Carles, appeared in many different iterations over the following years. Miss Dior Chérie Eau de Parfum was launched in 2005 as a flanker to Miss Dior (perfumery’s term for a sequel or spinoff), intended to draw a younger audience.
