BATHE YOUR SENSES By YASMIN HARAKE
Indulge your skin with all the elements of the Dior Addict bath and body line.

e’re all pretty well behaved when it comes to our skincare rituals, from splashing our faces with cold water to gently moisturizing afterwards. With busy 9 to 5 schedules we don’t leave ourselves much time to pamper our skin before we climb into bed for eight hours of much-needed beauty sleep, or before we head to the office first thing in the morning. Allow us to introduce the Dior Addict bath and body line. Prolong your beauty ritual with the newly created line that is tailored to enhance your already luxurious Dior experience. Orchestrated by François Demachy, the line showcases new compositions that further accentuate the floral notes of Dior Addict. Mr. Demachy said, “Creating the Dior Addict bath and body line was a truly creative game that enabled me to discover new facets and to modulate notes to achieve a delicate balance.” Intrigued? So are we. Let’s start with the Dior Addict Moisturizing Body Milk – a gentle

milk with a creamy texture that leaves your skin feeling soft and hydrated, with a trace of a subtle floral scent left behind. Enriched with Jasmine flower extract and carrying notes of wood and musk, the milk is a juxtaposition of the finest ingredients. Next up, it’s the Dior Addict Satin Body Mist. With a pleasantly surprising light and fresh texture, the formula smooths a satin veil over your skin, leaving it feeling smooth and enhancing the notion of well-being. Finally, there is the Dior Addict Perfumed Deodorant; the perfect balance between fragrance and effectiveness. Presenting you with a pre-perfume experience like no other, the Dior Addict Bath and Body Line comes in beautiful, matte bottles topped with an elegant transparent bead for the perfect finishing touch. Tailored to work harmoniously with each of the Dior Addict fragrances, the Dior Addict Bath and Body Line emphasizes the powerful scents of Dior Addict Eau de Parfum, Dior Addict Eau de Toilette and the floral tones of Dior Addict Eau Fraîche. We are already smitten with the new line, are you?

THE
GAME CHANGER
By YASMIN HARAKE
Revamped and recharged, the Dior Homme Bath Line has seriously upped its game.
W
e all long for that feeling of rejuvenated skin, and François Demachy is here to grant that very wish. The recent renewal of the Dior Homme Bath Line has taken the modern man’s skincare regime to a while other level, and we like what we see. With standards of the highest kind, the new line was conceived by Mr. Demachy to be as refined as the fragrances that already sit comfortably in the perfume line. So, what can we expect? A new Dior Homme Shower Gel, Aftershave Balm and Deodorant are stealing the show, illustrating the perfect combination of work and play (they work hard, but let you play). Clever, no? Wake up to an all-new morning skincare ritual that will leave you feeling fresh
and revitalized, and ready to conquer the day ahead. Mr. Demachy commented, “Creating a bath line is an exercise I have always loved. It is a game and a true challenge. For Dior Homme it meant I could discover new facets and play on raw materials to transpose its identity while respecting its structure.” The understated elegance of the line itself works seamlessly with the fragrances, highlighting its luxurious nature with sharp, clean lines, frosted transparency and black lacquer. The glass bottle and pump of the Aftershave balm has been entirely reimagined and designed, emphasizing the new take on the line. The ideal companion for any man, the Dior Homme Bath Line is back, and better than ever.
