Learn about the science behind Dior Prestige’s latest innovations, featuring Le Nectar Intégral and a three-step skincare ritual designed to unlock the full regenerative potential of its hero ingredient: Rose de Granville
A skincare ritual is more than mere routine—it’s an act of self-care. In the quiet moments of daily life, this becomes a deeply personal yet powerful habit—one that nourishes the skin and restores the mind. For those seeking high-quality skincare products that deliver, the journey can be lifelong.
Around 20 years ago, researchers at French luxury maison Dior discovered a unique wild rose growing on the cliffs of Granville, near its founder Christian Dior’s childhood home in Normandy, France. Unlike ordinary garden roses, this resilient flower thrived in a harsh coastal climate, displaying extraordinary strength and regenerative properties. Fascinated by its ability to resist environmental stressors, Dior’s scientists embarked on a mission to unlock its skincare potential.
Since then, Dior Science has studied the remarkable resilience of the Rose de Granville, refining its ability to transform skin through the luxurious Dior Prestige collection. In 2025, this pursuit reaches new heights with Le Nectar Intégral, a serum that introduces the most advanced concentration of the Rose’s regenerative power. Alongside the collection’s Le Nectar Premier and Le Baume de Minuit, this trio forms a skincare ritual that embodies luxury and efficacy.

Pioneering rose research
The foundation of this new formula is Dior Science’s latest discovery: the substantial extract of the Rose de Granville. Through innovative biomimetic extraction techniques, researchers have successfully captured all three vital components of the flower—aqueous, oily, and substantial. This third component, newly recognised as fundamental to the rose’s exceptional resilience, plays a crucial role in the storage and transport of regenerative nutrients.
Rosapeptide Intégral represents the most advanced version of Dior’s signature complex, combining collagen-boosting peptides with the rose’s aqueous extract, reparative sap and the newly harnessed substantial extract. This harmonious blend of 128 active molecules strengthens skin resilience, reinforces the barrier function, and significantly improves hydration and elasticity. Research conducted by Dior demonstrates that Rosapeptide Intégral increases NRF2 (a key protein) activity by 20 per cent, bolstering the skin’s natural defences against environmental aggressors and age-related changes.
Science of transformation
Created for those seeking exceptional skin revitalisation, Le Nectar Intégral features a high-performance formula comprising 96 per cent natural-origin ingredients. This concentrated serum mirrors the natural composition of the Rose de Granville to thoroughly restore and regenerate the skin.
The application experience unfolds in three distinct phases: initial absorption similar to an essence, nourishment comparable to an oil, followed by a soft, velvety finish. Le Nectar Intégral offers versatile application options and can also be used alone during periods of increased stress or fatigue, or layered beneath the Le Nectar Premier for an intensified anti-ageing routine.

Work of art
Le Nectar Intégral marks the debut of Dior Prestige’s newly designed Les Nectars de Rose collection, presented in elegant lacquered glass vessels adorned with the signature Compass Rose emblem. The collection includes: Le Nectar Premier, Dior Prestige's original serum targeting deep wrinkles, powered by Rosapeptide Premier and the rejuvenating first buds of the Rose de Granville; and Le Baume de Minuit, a rich night cream enhanced with Midnight Rosapeptide to optimise overnight skin regeneration and visibly restore density.

The Dior Prestige ritual
At the centre of the Dior Prestige Les Nectars de Rose collection is a three-step skincare ritual designed for skin rejuvenation:
Step 1: Le Nectar Premier
A highly corrective serum formulated to target deep wrinkles and signs of ageing, Le Nectar Premier harnesses the power of Rosapeptide Premier, derived from the first buds of the Rose de Granville. This concentrated formula smoothens expression lines and revitalises the skin’s youthful mechanisms.
Step 2: Le Nectar Intégral
The most potent expression of Dior’s skincare innovation, Le Nectar Intégral is infused with Rosapeptide Integral to reinforce skin structure, improve elasticity, and enhance contours. Its sensorial formula transforms upon application—absorbing like an essence, nourishing like an oil and finishing with the comfort of a serum.
Step 3: Le Baume de Minuit
Designed as the final step in the ritual, this night cream is powered by Midnight Rosapeptide, a molecule that synchronises the skin’s renewal processes during sleep. By morning, the skin appears firmer, plumper and visibly refreshed.
