Christian Dior Dune Eau de Toilette 50mls 17 fl.oz Spray bottle, in MINT but no longer sealed box

Dune has now been discontinued by Dior & to find an untouched first release is incredibly rare.

A gorgeous vintage bottle (date batch code 3344J etched into the back of the bottle, now this should be for 1997 but my instincts tell me this is a far earlier bottle), it is worth pointing out that unlike the majority of vintage Dior perfumes, these early Dune boxes can very often not have the date batch code stamped anywhere on the box because they regularly had the code stamped onto the cellophane, though the sealed in box bottle I have listed does have the stamp. 

This is the original formula, that which made it a runaway success from the day of its launch but now sadly discontinued by LVMH who own the rights to Dior parfums. Untouched & has never seen the light of day, mint condition other than very slight dark mark running across the box, this is a staggeringly beautifull fragrance & would love for this to go to someone who craves the original formula
