An interesting comparison between Diorama and Poison; they seem to share the same DNA. One could say Diorama is Poison from the 1940s. It’s hardly a stretch to make that connection, as they share neroli, cinnamon, plum, and jasmine at the heart. Of course, other ingredients such as peach, melon, and those animalic notes in Diorama set it slightly apart from Poison. It’s an intriguing fragrance and well worth trying, although in the end, I keep coming back to Poison, time and time again.
