"To celebrate the 2022 Lunar New Year and the year of the Tiger, Miss Dior Blooming Bouquet is reinvented in a box enhanced with a revisited Toile de Jouy motif inspired by textile archives of the 18th century. A Dior floral brooch adds a touch of refinement to your gift." £112 at Harrods in the UK.
