About diptyque: 

In bohemian Saint Germain, the artistic, intellectual and festive heart of 1960s Paris, a creative adventure was born from a meeting of minds. Driven by a pioneering spirit and a boundless curiosity about the world, Yves Coueslant, Christiane Gautrot and Desmond Knox-Leet opened the doors to Diptyque.

A creator of singular perfumes for the self and the home, scented skincare products, desirable decorative objects… and stories that set the imagination free.

In the interplay of fragrance, illustration and mesmerising pattern are distilled memories of places loved or dreamed of, of moments lived, of journeys shared.

Diptyque extends an invitation to a rich, evocative universe – this place between reverie and reality, between the intimate and the universal. Here, the imagination, liberated, may roam.
