How do I get send a dm to the user who reacted to a message [DISCORD.JS]

I looked everywhere, but my question is never answered. Here is what I want to do, in simple terms.
When a user reacts to a message in the following code, it will dm them saying 'you reacted!'

collector.on('collect', (reaction, reactionCollector) => {
// I tried: reaction.author.send, doesn't work.
});

The fist its great reaction collector after some trigger, and then handle emoji. But this work only for certain time.

message.channel.send('Your Text').then(msg=> {
msg.react(`◀️`)
const filter = (reaction, user) => {
    return [`◀️`].includes(reaction.emoji.name) && user.id === message.author.id;
};
const collector = msg.createReactionCollector(filter, {time: 60000 });
collector.on('collect', (reaction, reactionCollector) => {
    reaction.users.last().send('Some')
    .catch(console.error)
});
})

If you need handle it all time in specific message, you can listen event reaction_add 

bot.on('messageReactionAdd', (reaction, user) => {
    if(reaction.message.id !== 'YOUR MESSAGE ID') return
    user.send('Some')
    .catch(console.error)
  });
