Maison Diptyque presents Les Essences de Diptyque, an odyssey in search of nature’s treasures. The new collection consists of five eaux de parfum inspired by natural treasures like coral, mother of pearl, bark, water lily, and desert rose. These fragrances aim to interpret the emotions and sensations evoked by these elements through scent. The bottles for this collection have been redesigned with a modern twist, featuring engraved glass with illustrations by Nigel Peake. The bottles are refillable and made from recyclable materials, emphasizing sustainability. Corail Oscuro, created by Alexandra Carlin, is inspired by the coral in the Venetian Lagoon, blending rose bourbon absolute, mandarin, and a warm mineral accord to capture the essence of coral gardens.

Taking its name from the contrast between the darkness of the seabed and the vibrant colouring of the coral that lives there, Corail Oscuro is inspired by the coral in the Venetian Lagoon, blending rose bourbon absolute with the crystalline sparkle of mandarin, elevated by a warm, salty, mineral accord to capture the very essence of this marine creature.
The evocative name “Lunamaris” celebrates mother of pearl, and that delicate shimmering that calls to mind the reflection of the moon on the waters of the sea. The fragrance blends the luminous gentleness of rockrose with the spicy accents of pink peppercorn, like colors dancing upon an iridescent surface. Understated incense notes evoke both a mineral freshness and an enveloping warmth to create a perfume that is potent, yet subtle.
Bois Corsé, inspired by the protective nature of bark in the forest, and by the full-bodied flavours of coffee, evokes the depth of its character.
This fragrance is an invitation to explore the forest and its secret pathways. Combining the enveloping softness of tonka bean with the milky fluidity of sandalwood essence, this woody scent harbours unrivalled depths.
Inspired by Claude Monet’s majestic Water Lilies series, Lilyphéa evokes the flower’s graceful, floating ballet upon the glittering waters. The composition subtly blends the lively freshness of cardamom—accompanied by violet leaves— with the luminous softness of Madagascan vanilla.
With aromas redolent of the Orient, Rose Roche offers a unique interpretation of the rose— ethereal, as though shaped by the wind. Radiant, finely honed notes of lemon illuminate the petals of the centifolia rose, while mineral patchouli adds a mesmerising depth that creates an endless sillage, like traces blowing in the wind as it sweeps across the dunes.
