What wearers say

“Dior has listened to the community to release "the real Dior Homme" again. This is almost spot on like the OG Dior Homme. I find this more spicy in the opening, and slightly more powdery in the dry down compared to the OG but they are minor differences. I absolutely love it and I will rotate this one with my old batches. If you like the old Dior Homme you will love Dior Homme Original. Versatile, masculine all year round, classy iris scent.”

“I owned the Dior Homme 2011 and was now able to replace it with the Original. Bought directly from Dior, batch 4J01. I still have some juice left from my 2011 version and I can confirm they are identical. Performance is also unchaged bearing in mind this was never a beastmode fragrance - it lasts around 5 hours with moderate projection for the first hour and fading to skin scent after that. This is a special scent suited for initmate encounters.”
A member of a leading fragrance community
“I see how it falls in like with DHI and DHP, but the iris lacks that sweetness. It’s more a dry, dusty vibe like in Valentino Uomo or Uomo Intense. I don’t see me wearing this much as I prefer Dior’s sweeter Iris offerings much better.Projection and Sillage are intimate, Longevity is pretty poor. I got about 3 hours before I couldn’t smell it anymore. I never got a chance to smell the Original “Original” back in 2011 or so, can’t compare the two.All the hype this gets from YTers, I was expecting to be blown away. Color me incredibly unimpressed.”

Sillage

The clone matches the opening and mid-stage closely but the base lacks the original's depth and complexity, feeling sweeter and less woody in the final hours. Longevity is comparable, but sillage on the clone tends to be slightly softer.
