Dune Sun by Dior is a Floral Fruity fragrance for women. Dune Sun was launched in 2003. Top notes are Mandarin Orange and Black Currant; middle notes are Freesia, Lotus and Jasmine; base notes are Sandalwood, Vanilla and Musk. Dune Sun is an alcohol free summer fragrance, presented in 2003 as floral – fruity composition available in a 100 ml EDT bottle. Dior Dune Sun stands in the horizon between blue sky and yellow sand, waiting to be touched and felt. Sweet breeze comes with the top notes of refreshing black currant, dry and intensive yuzu, and fresh – sweet mandarin, all perfectly blended in with lotus, freesia and jasmine. The base is tenderly soothed with powdery vanilla, sandalwood and sensuous musk. Dune Sun carries the same form as the female Dune perfume, blurry glass bottle in a yellow – blue box.
