Diptyque Eau Des Sens Eau De Toilette 100 ml

On the hunt for a white floral with a refreshing twist of greenery. Eau Des Sens is marketed as a citrus floral scent, but the citrus on my skin was definitely muted — could barely sense any of the particular notes of bitter orange or orange flower. Which is interesting, because I know a lot of people get that “entire orange tree” scent on their own skin! Somehow it felt a little stuffy for me, an overwhelming bouquet of white floral that leans slightly sharp in the scented laundry department. Overall, pleasant, but not quite the refreshing, light scent I was hoping it would be.

I haven't tried Diptyque fragrance before, though I was familiar with the candles. This fragrance is very fresh and spring like with a hint of mystery. Notes of orange blossom, angelica root, juniper berry and patchouli, its unusual, which is just how I like my fragrances. On application I can pick up the orange blossom and patchouli, such an interesting combo. On the dry down, the patchouli drops off and you get more green vibes. Also pick up more of the Angelica root, which has notes of earth, musk, celery, pepper, herbs and a hint of citrus. It's best to anchor bright citrus notes, so its a very interesting pairing. I really am digging this fragrance!

Always get compliments!

I bought this perfume by accident, thinking it was one I had tried in store. The best accident I’ve ever made! Whenever I wear it I always get so many compliments. Two people I know have since bought it because they loved it so much! It’s now become my absolute favourite perfume and I will keep buying forever!

Awful customer services

Not gift wrapped as requested, no gift card, no free samples all as requested. Cost me extra £ 12 to buy gift bag elsewhere and card. Didn't resolve issue and didn't want to, just made it look on trustpilot that they wanted to resolve it to others but when as requested i email them after leaving negative review they still didnt resolve it. All lip service to others to make it look like they care. I will order diptyque from SELFRIDGES now, they gift box/ ribbon gifts free of charge with gift card, very high end, unlike spacenk

Childhood scent

This fragrance reminds me of a very cheap cologne my mother used to buy when I was child... Even tho is pricey, the scent it's quite unique and forever a classic perfume that you can choose to use for any occasion. The only reason I spent money on this is the fact that is long lasting, which for me is one of the most important things when spending this much money. The scent stays in your clothes for many days and above all it last many hours on your skin. I do 4/5 sprays to make sure it stays and that other people are able to smell it (what is the fun of wearing expensive perfume if no one can smell it haha).

Good but not Amazing

I ordered the fragrance because I have purchased the hand and body wash and absolutely loved it. Sadly the fragrance, though nice, isn't quite as good as the hand wash. It just doesn't come through with the same intoxicating balance of the citrus and juniper. This is still lovely, though as an eau de T it doesn't hang around too long. I punched it up by layereing with another citrus cologne and that made a big difference. I do like this, I just wish it was a bit bolder and that the citrus blossom and bitterness came through more.

Not a Sunny Orange Blossom

I hate to give perfumes a low rating b/c scent is so personal and especially when it's a house I love. I have two of Diptyque's perfumes that are part of my 10 for life (Do Son and Philisokos) but could not like this one no matter how hard I tried. Scent is a visceral experience for me, not an analytical process; I either like something or I don't. As a lover of orange blossom, I had high hopes for this one. It does actually open as a very green (stems and all) orange blossom flower, but it does change very quickly into a soapy and then an unidentifiable stale skin scent that I did not find comforting at all (Andy Tauer's Orange Star goes down the same path on my skin). It is not sweet which was a plus for me and it does last a reasonable amount of time w/ a decent ... MoreI hate to give perfumes a low rating b/c scent is so personal and especially when it's a house I love.

My main problem with it: there are simply so many better orange blossom perfumes in the universe and life is short. Had to send it back!

Smells so fresh

Smells so fresh. This is specifically for the hair, so I put it in my hair at the back of my neck in the morning.It doesn't dry out your hair like usually a perfume would. It doesn't attract wasps like a normal perfume would (when it mixes into your own scent). It is subtle enough not to compete with your regular perfume that you might wear in the evening.Perfect !

Will cherish for years to come

The Diptyque Eau des Sens is a classic fragrance that has stood the test of time since its launch in 2016 in my humble opinion. The scent is a beautiful blend of bitter orange, juniper berries, and patchouli, creating a unique and unforgettable aroma. The fragrance is perfect for any occasion, and its longevity ensures you can enjoy it all day long. The packaging is simple yet elegant, reflecting the understated sophistication of the scent itself. A timeless fragrance that is equally versatile and captivating.

let the senses dance

my favourite scents for when the weather is warmer and in spring... it is very classy and chic. Wears well for work and for an evening out.it's very fresh yet lingering and very feminine.Think of walking on Rome hills in March and smelling the orange blossoms... and yet once you're wearing it throughout the day, it matures and mutate to the fruit itself... orange, and the peels...The scent never leaves your body... it's evoking and whispering you're a goddess...who knows
