Our Favourite Diptyque Fragrances and Candles For Summer

But did you know fragrance was not what brought Diptyque’s three founders together initially? Christiane Gautrot, Desmond Knox-Leet and Yves Coueslant originally opened the 34 Boulevard Saint-Germain boutique to showcase their fabric and seven years later, Desmond encouraged his two friends to branch out into fragrance. Roll forward to 2024 and that early pivot into scent proved game-changing.
Over the years, Diptyque has stayed true to its artistic roots by collaborating with various artists from across the world on limited edition packaging.
Why We Love Diptyque Fragrances
For us, Diptyque is the epitome of luxury. From the chic packaging to the quality of the fragrance, Diptyque fragrances and candles never, ever disappoint. The brand is continuously pushing the boundaries of how you wear fragrances and how you scent your home with perfumed rope bracelets, solid perfumes, hair mist and room diffusers that dinner party guests could mistake for art.Best Diptyque Fragrances For Summer 2024
