The Brand

Diptyque

Diptyque opened on Boulevard Saint-Germain in Paris in 1961 and released its first perfume in 1968. Scendira has 60+ Diptyque perfumes to browse, starting around $25 and topping out near $345.

Most-Discussed Diptyque Perfumes

L'Eau Papier, Philosykos Eau de Parfum and Eau Duelle Eau de Parfum are the Diptyque perfumes people bring up most across the communities Scendira follows.

Smelling the picks

L'Eau Papier (2023) reads like warm milky musk on soft powdery cotton. In Philosykos Eau de Parfum (Eau de Parfum, 1996), expect sun-warmed fig leaves with creamy coconut, starting with fig leaf before cedar take over. Eau Duelle Eau de Parfum (Eau de Parfum, 2013) is closest to bourbon vanilla cream warmed with smoky incense.
