Soft jazz music accompanies the lively conversations of the visitors, who enjoy the ambience and the artistic exchange in soft leather armchairs. The fact that the small boutique on the boulevard in Paris is one of the most sought-after niche brands the three founders would probably never have guessed at the time.
But the charm they have brought to the world with their special luxury brand diptyque is infectious.
That's why we at DASPARFUM & Beauty are particularly pleased to be one of the few online stores for exclusive niche perfumes and luxury cosmetics to offer you the unique diptyque luxury perfumes, the fragrant scented candles and room sprays and the diptyque premium care products products.
diptyque Paris - born from the passion of a trio of artists for luxurious perfumes, scented candles & care products
It was the first store at 34 Boulevard Saint-Germain in Paris.
"Diptyque" - a name as unique and complex as the construct it stands for. French for diptych, it describes a two-part painting often encountered in Renaissance Italy. Like a two-part amulet that only reveals its precious treasure when opened, the diptyque Paris boutique opens invitingly onto the street. A door between two symmetrical corner shop windows, clearly identified as a diptych by the diptyque founders and art history enthusiasts - and also as the perfect platform to offer their beautiful travel treasures.
diptyque brings a lot of things together, but the brand always remains true to the founders' vision: aa chic, multi-faceted, poetic and, above all, a fragrance and care house characterized by aesthetics and artthat offers customers the best of the perfume, art and care worlds.
But let's take a look at the history of the niche brand diptyque Paris from the very beginning:
The coming together of three unique personalities is the founding hour of diptyque. A collective of artists: Christiane Montadre-Gautrot an architect, Desmond Knox-Leet a Scottish painter and Yves Coueslant a set designer - in 1961, the three friends decided to open a boutique selling everything to do with the beautiful life. Equipped with a bold plan, the trio of artists let their intuition drive them and created a true shopping experience for all visitors - with art, music, conversations and of course extraordinary perfume creations. They gathered a lot of inspiration in the neighboring Parisian nightclub Orphéon, which they later integrated into their boutique. Their joint travels through Europe also provided them with plenty of ideas. From there, they brought special decorative objects, luxurious fragrances and other treasures back to Paris.
They began designing artfully printed cotton fabrics and wallpaper and selling unusual furniture and perfumes from all over the world in their "diptyque" boutique. The demand for exquisite fragrances for the home and body in particular flourished and continued to grow. In the year 1963 the trio then designed their first own scented candle "Thé". Christiane Montadre-Gautrot procured fireproof laboratory jars from the pharmacy, in which she poured high-quality wax over dried flower petals. The flowers smelled wonderful when the candle was lit and the new business idea was born.
But that was not all. 1968 saw the launch of diptyque's first perfume, the eau de toilette "L'Eau". A timeless and classic fragrance with cinnamon and cloves that can be worn by men and women alike. The three founders broke a taboo with their first exclusive perfume: a unisex fragrance was still a scandal in the early 1960s. But the "scandalous fragrance" was right on the pulse of the student movements for more equality.
Today, one diptyque perfume still replaces another on the bestseller throne. And the great thing about it? diptyque Paris always strikes a bridge between past and present. The stories of the three artists' travels through Europe still serve as a model and inspiration for the creation of the unique fragrances.

ORPHÉON is a tribute to the bar next to the diptyque boutique in Paris, where the three founders spent many convivial hours and gathered inspiration for their unique creations. Orphéon has virtually always been part of diptyque and more than lives up to this anniversary with its celebratory fragrance effect.
The unique fragrance perfectly captures the atmosphere of the bar and the nightclub - Fresh and floral with woody undertones, diptyque ORPHÉON combines the warmth of tonka bean with cedar, floral jasmine and fruity juniper berry.

Go on a journey with DASPARFUM & Beauty through the overwhelming fragrances of fragrance landscapes of diptyque, which skillfully highlight the special components and accents of different fragrance families. We will demonstrate it to you using the example of diptyque FLEUR DE PEAU:
FLEUR DE PEAU from the floral fragrance family:
The particularly floral, sensual fragrance of diptyque FLEUR DE PEAU is like the outburst of a positive emotion, a ecstasya state of intoxication of passion and love.
This fragrance was inspired by the love story of Psyche and Eros from ancient Greece. The task of embodying this legend in the fragrance is the responsibility of musk. As an animalistic, but also sensual fragrance component, it emphasizes musk the powdery, delicate iris notes and creates a downy-soft fragrance experience. Fruity accents through armbra-like ambrette grains of hibiscus round off the sensual FLEUR DE PEAU perfume. The olfactory surprise of this seductive fragrance is created by Pink berries is created.

Unique diptyque designs: characterized by artistic chaos, passionate creativity & a love of art history
The design of the brand name is characterized by a break. Classic stringency is completely ignored and the field is given over to thecreative chaosto creative chaos. The brand itself describes it as follows: "A name designed like the front pediment of a Greek temple." A bar with descending gradations adorns the logo and transforms it into aa work of calligraphic art. The creator of diptyque's extraordinary logo was one of its founders, Desmond Knox-Leet. Among other things, the painter had a passion for calligraphic drawing. He presents the brand name freely and simply. To give the logo the desired shape, however, he made the letters stumble. This shows us what is desirable for the diptyque Paris brand:Imperfect perfection, being different, standing out through unconventional and novel ideas.
And what diptyque also shows us: not everything has to be obvious at first glance for the message to get across.
diptyque has its own spirit and that's why we at DASPARFUM & Beauty love this niche brand.
The specific shape of the diptyque logo is also more than just a shape. As soon as they met, the three founders of diptyque were inseparable. Their common love of graphic art and aesthetics led them to create patterns for wallpapers and fabrics, which still inspire the designs of diptyque fragrances. The history of the creation of diptyque's characteristic oval even goes back to to ancient Rome back to ancient Rome. The artist trio's great interest in Roman history led them to come across an elongated soldier's shield. The oval of the shield of a soldier from the Praetorian Guardthe king's personal guard, is a frequent motif in the fabrics offered by diptyque. The shield, borrowed from ancient Roman culture, served the founders of diptyque Paris as a model for their vignette, which henceforth adorned every diptyque perfume and product. They showcased their new vocation as perfumers with an incense burner placed in the middle.
The logo from back then has been replaced in today's diptyque luxury fragrances by special lettering, which, like the creative chaos of the logo, is a jumble of letters. The painter Desmond Knox-Leet was not only a fan of calligraphy, but also of picture puzzles puzzles. From then on, the painter's idea lives on on the front of every perfume from diptyque Paris, which presents its viewers with a picture puzzle about the perfume name. Here, too, diptyque works playfully with its name, as the story of the fragrance is revealed in pictures on the reverse of the picture puzzle on the front. A look inside the bottle takes you into the world of Eau de Parfum or Eau de toilette from diptyque and learn the story behind the fragrance.
The oval-shaped logo also defines the shape of the bottle. An oval that perfectly frames the logo. Carefully produced in a glass-blowing workshop in northern France, the perfume bottles from diptyque Paris are characterized by excellent craftsmanship workmanship.
The small step on the back of the flacon, admittedly a very delicate undertaking during the manufacturing process, shows how stable the glass of the perfume flacons is.
But this step also serves another purpose: It frames the story of the perfume inside like an amulet frames the image it contains.
The magic of combination: fantastic fragrance compositions with the perfume gestures of diptyque
"Fragrances are to a perfume what colors are to a painting"says the inspiration of the diptyque founders.
And just as a wide variety of colors can be found in a painting colors mix, overlap and merge into one anotherdiptyque offers you the opportunity to do the same with fragrances.

Vogue
"Inspired by ancient Greece, Diptyque sought to give fougère and its genderless scent a modern twist with mint. Initially, the Paris-based fragrance house sourced a unique species of the perennial herb from a hybrid plant in the Cascade Range in Oregon. The ultra-floral rose and geranium as well as musky patchouli complete the comprehensive interpretation of the fresh scent.“
