    Dior Oud Ispahan vs Diptyque Oud Palao with Lanier Smith
    Lanier Smith and I sit and discuss the differences between Dior Privee Collection's Oud Ispahan vs Diptyque's Oud Palao. I find the Dior Oud Ispahan has gone through reformulations and it's not the same scent or perfume it once used to be. The complaints I received about Dior Oud Ispahan got to me to think that it has been reformulated in recent times I find that the Diptyque Oud Palao which was launched late last year to be similar in smell to Dior's Oud Ispahan with subtle nuances. So Lanier and compare the two scents together and how similar and different they each are. So watch to find out what we both think of these two fragrances.

    I just bought it last week from Dior website and it lasts over 15 hours on my skin, I’m not sure if it’s really been reformulated or no but it’s so fantastic and sensual.

    i bought a 250ml bottle of Oud Ispahan from the Dior boutique a month ago; I made a comparison between an old 125ml and this new one: and no, it has not been reformulated. It is still bold, potent, thick, 24+ hours lasting.

    I have an old little sample bottle and I compared with the Oud Ispahan (I received as a gift). Both of them has the same projection and longevity. That new bottle (125ml) was bought from Maison Christian Dior (in a box with cushion, very good presentation and came with samples from other Dior private blends). The new scent lasted for 16 hours + And the trail of that perfume (New Oud Ispahan) lasted for 10 days on my shirt (I didn't wash it to check) and even on a handkercheif I sprayed (I kept it to smelll if there is any change) and that lasted for 15 days. I guess this perfume is for the women. It has a middle eastern vibe. Pardon me, if I am wrong.

    Always great to see the two kings of SF collaborating! Is there any chance the newer formulation of Oud Ispahan is more "medicinal" than the old? I see this as a regular criticism of OI and I slightly agree, though I still regard the composition as refined. It sounds like I still need to try Oud Palao, regardless!

    That Lacoste cardigan is blowing-up Lanier! I gotta get me one of those, a very very classy piece! Otherwise, it was yet another great collaboration by U2! Re-formulations are a stroke of genius by the frag industry... HOW SO?!?! We spray 2 or 3 times as much to get satisfaction; and thus, our bottles wind-up disappearing much much quicker than before- very clever, but a rip-off in reality😳

    i recently tried the dior in the dubai duty free and it was HEAVENLY. i wore it on the airplane (probably not a good idea lol) and it lasted probably 8-10 hours on me which is super rare for any fragrance with my skin. i really would love a bottle but it’s out of my price range.

  • @absolutebloke6829

    Iv been trying to find the strong stuff of oud ispahan and i ran across a guy that said hes worked for dior
    "I worked for Christian Dior for many years. PEOPLE Have been told it was watered down. But , the truth is that between 2013-2015 the climate in the region in which the oud tree was , received more water in those u ears versus other years . I can vouch for Christian Dior they never water down nor do they substitute any ingredients for synthetics."
    what do you guys think? reformulation or oud that was less potent

    • @ThePerfumeGuy

    I really love this video. I have a little decant of Oud Ispahan that I purchased from ebay. It is very long lasting, and I hated it. I'm trying to better understand this fragrance through the eyes of Sebastian and through the experience of Lanier Smith. The decant I have is very animalic, urine like. I'll love to smell Diptyque Palao so that I can better compare the two but so far I only have the Dior version. About Diptyque I have to add that I have slowly become a fan, I love most of its line so far. Dior on the other hand have become for sure not one of my choices.
