Diptyque Oyedo Eau De Toilette Spray 100ml

This is one of those scents that I was told I would absolutely love as someone who appreciates vanilla perfume but doesn't like the cloying sweetness that often accompanies it. I was sent a sample of Eau Duelle in both the EDT and EDP form and I'm glad I didn't blind buy bottles of either. They are both very nice, but I struggle to detect much vanilla in them. I find both formulas to be quite "green" in nature, with spicy/herbal undertones. Maybe Patchouli? I'm not sure. I don't have a sophisticated nose so I can't say for sure, but I definitely don't love how these mix with my skin chemistry. Almost a medicinal sense, which isn't for me. Also, this is quite strong! A little goes a very long way and lasts all day. I guess I was disappointed because so many described ... MoreThis is one of those scents that I was told I would absolutely love as someone who appreciates vanilla perfume but doesn't like the cloying sweetness that often accompanies it.

A little goes a very long way and lasts all day. I guess I was disappointed because so many described Eau Duelle as a boozy vanilla, but I can't discern that at all. Definitely not a gourmand. Not for me, but still quite pleasant if you like fresh, green scents. The woodsy notes are domineering (kind of like rosemary or pine?).

This is truly such a beautiful, warm, spicy, green vanilla! This surprisingly reminds me so much of babycat, particularly in the opening. In the dry down that kind of goes away and you get more of a soft sweet, easy to enjoy vanilla. The vanilla is not gourmand or overly sweet. It’s definitely a different take on vanilla, more green, but not in an off-putting way whatsoever. The scent has really soft edges, nothing too sharp or overwhelming and very easy to enjoy. It’s a little boozy, a little peppery, all sweetened up by a beautiful, ethereal vanilla. Lasts long on my skin with a moderate projection and has a beautiful scent bubble trail.

I adore this perfume. Hands down, this is my favorite vanilla, and I have quite a few! The first note I smell is the resin, which is incredibly smooth and rounded, and then there's a bit of greenness from the juniper. To my nose, everything is so well blended here, I can't really pick apart the smells too much. This perfume is such an easy reach, and you can wear it without feeling like it's generic. The vibe that I get with this perfume is a little woodland fairy that's got the tiniest dash of sweetness, but mixed with earthiness and woodiness. This feels like being enveloped in a cozy hug during the winter, but I could see this being used during cooler nights in the summer. Absolute love.

A beautiful beautiful fragrance ! I am in love. It’s the perfect mix of woody, resinous incense and dry, unsweetened yet still gourmand vanilla and it lasts FOREVER. The first spray smells a little like rice paper but quickly fades to reveal the beauty it is underneath. It’s spicy, it’s warm, it’s clean, it’s musky, it’s airy, it’s sexy, it’s inviting YET mysterious, it’s vampiric, it’s sultry…..A dream, really ! Just utterly perfect. It does have an old library vibe as some have mentioned. Not to mention that it’s suitable for any season and unapologetically unisex. I would say it really suits who I am as a person. Longevity is great, sillage is a little more on the discreet side but It’s perfect that way. The packaging is GORGEOUS. It’s so elegant, luxurious and ... MoreA beautiful beautiful fragrance !

It’s so elegant, luxurious and fancy…I shed a little tear opening it 🥹 The bottle is beautiful as well, the design is really unique and pretty, the cap is nice and snug and the spray makes a beautiful mist. Absolutely worth buying.

If only the performance was as great as the scent :(

As a vanilla hater, Eau Duelle was the only perfume that changed my view (For the better) on vanilla fragrances. It's a rich, spicy vanilla that's not cloying or too sweet, but instead wonderfully intoxicating. As it dries down, it imparts a beautiful smokiness with a hint of sweetness.Unfortunately, the performance leaves much to be desired. The sillage is poor, and it doesn't last long on my skin. I'd rate it a 3.5 because of this.Wonderful scent, sucky performance.

LOVE the fragrance but NOT long lasting

Absolutely obsessed with this fragrance. I usually enjoy fragrances with warm vanilla, patchouli and sexy sophisticated earthy vibes. Eau Duelle isn’t offensive or overly woodsy; unisex but leans heavily feminine. Beautiful for close encounters and cozy situations like the office and intimate dates. If you love Vanilla based fragrances, I recommend it.Unfortunately it doesn’t last for more than a couple hours, which I find extremely disappointing. It’s pricy for a Parfum, especially for one that only lasts a couple hours. Absolutely NO longevity. I didn’t find other reviews mentioning this issue so maybe I received an older bottle… ?

Light and Fresh Rose Scent

I love Rose scented perfume. My all time favourite is Stella by Stella Macartney. However, they discontinued this perfume. A friend of mine mentioned that Eau Rose was similar because it is also light and fresh, and not a heavy rose scent. I took a risk and ordered this online. I wasn't disappointed. I love this scent. Many have commented on how lovely my perfumes smells. My only complain though, you have to keep spraying as the scent doesn't last long. I will try the perfume next time.

Overall happy, but disappointed with cust. service

Sharing feedback. I received this as a gift for myself. I love the smell, it’s amazing. I was disappointed with the shipment arriving damaged. The tube inside the bottle was disconnected from the sprayer causing a leak, and not allowing me to spray the fragrance out. It also appeared that the bottle had been dropped at some point & the corner of the bottom of the bottle was damaged and has a chip in it causing the glass to splinter off. I did contact customer service and they denied me a refund and they stated it was because I had once previously returned a maison margiela fragrance to their store due to a non functioning sprayer, which is true but I did physically return the product so I am not sure what the discrepancy was about. Anyways, I ended up just using a ... MoreSharing feedback. I received this as a gift for myself. I love the smell, it’s amazing. I was disappointed with the shipment arriving damaged.

Anyways, I ended up just using a syringe and taking the fragrance from the Diptyque bottle and I put it into a glass perfume bottle from Amazon which isn’t ideal because I paid for this fragrance and the bottle and I was basically forced to “figure it out myself” due to Nordstrom basically think I was lying because I had previously made ONE return in the past due to a faulty sprayer on yet again another very expensive fragrance.

Paraffin wax. All Diptyque candles are paraffin

SCENT - the smells wonderful. It’s why I bought it. I love orange blossom and smelled this when I was in Paris at one of the many Diptyque boutique there. I bought it when I came back here. It’s smells wonderful - that’s not the issue.This is a PARAFFIN not soy or beeswax candle. By chance, after years of buying Diptyque candles for myself and others, I finally noticed that these are paraffin, a petroleum derivative. I see no point in avoiding VOCs and other forms of carcinogens, and then burning a candle that's a petroleum derivative. I’m disappointed in Diptyque and Nordstrom for selling something like this when there are safer non-carcinogenic soy and beeswax candles. So I’m returning this and will either buy Le Labo or one of the better French brands one can ... MoreSCENT - the smells wonderful. It’s why I bought it.
