Dior Holiday 2011 brings us four heart stopping nail colors in the Le Or Vernis Collection of Les Rouges Or. Or Divin #221, Exquis #611, Merveille #651, and Apparat #871 are all injected with a fine golden powder and I’m excited to have three of them here to share with you! This post will be about Exquis 611.
Exquis is a beautiful smoky golden khaki color infused with a ton of gorgeous different colored shimmers (primarily gold). It’s the nail polish doppelganger for the Dior Smoky Khaki 3-Couleurs Eye Shadow Palette! The polish was opaque in 2 coats, but I used 3 for the swatch above.
This shade is so smokey that I wanted to show you Exquis in comparison to Cult Nails In A Trance, which is a beautiful shimmery SATURATED Khaki shade:
I didn’t believe the two shades to be dupes or similar, but I just wanted to show you how smoked out Exquis is.
Dior Or Vernis will retail for $22.00 each as part of the Holiday 2011 Les Rouges Or Collection. I was told this will launch sometime in October.

Is China Glaze's Ingrid similar?
BlushingNoir says
based off of swatches I'd say the mac is more of a grey/taupe with shimmer, where as this is a khaki/gold shimmer. MAC EH is probably closer (though looks darker than) to Zoya Jules, which I did purchase today, so I'll do a comparison this week =)
Shadowy Lady says
That's a pretty polish. How does it compare to MAC Earthy Harmony from last fall?
jbrobeck says
I agree, I don't think Jules will be a match. =(
BlushingNoir says
I don't have Jules to compare to, but based off of swatches Jules seems to have a golden champagne base, where Exquis has a golden khaki base and is much darker. Jules is really pretty tho, so if I see it at Ulta tomorrow I'll grab it!
Larie says
Do you have Zoya Jules to compare it to? They seem similar, and I'd like to know if I can safely pass on this, haha!
jbrobeck says
I need this. For realz.
Nicole says
Wow! Brooke that's really pretty.
