Under the cascades in the Garden of the Hesperides, upon first contact with water, the cleansing gel for hands and body transforms into a silky foam that sends delightful shivers down the skin. Shea butter moisturizes the epidermis, leaving it velvety soft. The scent of orange blossom and bitter orange, interwoven with accents of juniper berries and petitgrain, coaxes a smile from the nymphs and a serenade from the birds.
Whether truly experienced or born of fantasy, the journeys so dear to DIPTYQUE always have a fantastical dimension. This summer, the brand ventures into the Garden of the Hesperides, that mystical place in the deepest Occident, reserved for gods and nymphs. To embody this mythological paradise, the artist duo Carnovsky created bewildering, hallucinatory illustrations that capture the sensually intoxicating fragrance theme of L’Eau des Sens. The two designers invent unique landscapes and create a fantasy garden that brings the myth to life in a modern way.
What happens in the Garden of the Hesperides?
The heat makes the air shimmer and awakens the desire for a cool bed of velvety moss. Nature seems to crackle, the nymphs of the sunset roam around. The vegetation exudes pleasant scents that captivate the senses. Citrus fruits play hide-and-seek with the animals, while the goddesses of dusk watch them amusedly.
The nymphs laugh and rave, for oh, ecstasy! Oh, deliciousness! Two new rituals in the spirit of Eau des Sens complement the range of fragrance applications and cause a stir! Bodies tremble, hands caress, heads spin, and hair exudes a delightful scent, as if electrified by so much tingling freshness… An imaginative visual immersion by the duo Carnovsky into the heart of the idyllic orchard of the Hesperides. The melting, tingling notes of Eau des Sens bubble forth among the plants, confusing the animals, delighting the sunset nymphs who are entranced by the riot of colors.
