Back then, in the heat of a Greek summer: "...to get to the sea," Yves recalls, "you had to go through an orchard with wild fig trees." Desmond brought back a small box filled with the leaves of just such trees from a trip to Paris.
Even years later, the leaves have lost none of their fragrance. Philosykos, which means "friend of the fig tree" in Greek, is an ode to the entire tree: the green, vigorous freshness of the leaves, the wood warmed by the sun, and the milky aroma of the fruits.
Now, with the sun at its highest point, DIPTYQUE's famous fig tree appears in a new form: as an Eau de Parfum; less fruity, but heated to white-hot in a mist of cedars. Woody and racy, the strong accents of the bark and lush foliage envelop the fragrance, conveying a softer impression than the original Eau de Toilette. A similar, yet new interpretation that enhances and improves the key notes... The Eau de Parfum presents itself with more personality, boldness, intensity, and longevity.
DIPTYQUE
For over 40 years, DIPTYQUE has been producing a sophisticated collection of Eau de Toilettes with a distinctive signature. Inspired by nature and travel - the forgotten taste of a particular fruit, the heaviness of a tree resin, an exotic spice, sweet and delicately scented blossoms, the fragrant depths of a balm, and the subtle notes of wood.
Great substances, surprisingly dominating in harmony, give DIPTYQUE its striking and distinctive personality. Like an invitation to freedom off the beaten path. Throughout its history, DIPTYQUE has offered an extraordinary fragrance landscape.
Today, guided by this rich heritage, DIPTYQUE perpetuates a creation of fragrances without restriction to masculine or feminine.
