Philosykos here too!!

I did only pick one Diptyque, the mouthwatering Philosykos.
post #11 of 112
Only had the chance to sample Philosykos, but I LOVE it. Shame about the longevity though.
Love the name too

As much as I like Philosykos, L'Ombre dans l'Eau, 34 Boulevard Saint Germain, Eau Mage, and Tam Dao, I'll have to go with Eau Duelle.
post #14 of 112
Eau Lente. And Opoponax from the home fragrance line. And the Christmas candles!
post #15 of 112
The Myrrhe candle!
post #16 of 112
Virgilio. Or Opone.

Oh, only those they didn't axe in their corporate make-over? Hmmmm. L'Ombre - if I'm forced.
post #17 of 112
Eau Lente. And Ombre dans l'eau shower gel.

Jardanel:
btw, Diptyque brought back the whole line - but it can only be found in their own stores.

L'Ombre dans l'Eau.

(Though I was tempted to put down Oyédo.)

Thanks cacio! I'll check that out.

Tam Dao

It would be a toss up between L'ombre dans L'eau and Eau Duelle.
post #23 of 112
Eau Lente

and John Galliano home fragrance!

Philosykos
post #25 of 112
I bought Philosykos about 2 months ago. It's a nice, subtle scent but looking back I wish I had saved the £60 (around $90) to spend on something else.

I still have like an 85% full bottle that I rarely use.

post #27 of 112
I already have and its Tam Dao.
post #28 of 112
I wondered when I was gonna get my first longevity problems with a scent. Sadly, Philosykos was it, and even though I enjoyed it.. it just vanished from my skin.

Eau Lente, on the other hand.
post #29 of 112
Among the historicals I'd say Eau Lente. Of their newest, Eau Mage hands down.
post #30 of 112
tough call, but currently I'm in love with L'Eau de Tarocco
post #31 of 112
L'Ombre dans l'Eau.

My one and only Diptyque: 34 Boulevard St Germain

Vetyverio piques my interest.

Me too. I haven't even given it a full wearing yet. It's a superb scent, not very long lasting, but just not sure I want to smell like ripe figs!

Tom Dao and Philosykos - Emerge as winners / Will be getting both.
post #39 of 112
Of the few I've tried, Tam Dao.
post #40 of 112
Do Son has been on my wishlist for a while. However, I was in the Dyptique shop in San Francisco and smelled Philosykos! Fig Fig FIG! Plus, now, make sure that whomever you get Diptyque from has the new, beautiful ROUNDED bottles!

Yes, this one is on my wish list. It's similar to Mazzolari's Vetiver.
BTW, Diptyque is changing their packaging, and I suspect a price increase will also occur:
post #42 of 112
Another for tam dao, only smelt it once but loved it.
post #43 of 112
If only one then its 34 Boulevard Saint Germain for the sheer versatility and complexity.

Otherwise L'Eau Trois and Tam Dao are genius.
post #44 of 112
Eau Duelle
post #45 of 112
The only one I've liked enough to buy: L'Ombre Dans L'Eau.
post #46 of 112
hmmm, tough call, but I'd say Philosykos, even though longevity sucks. Otherwise L'Ombre Dans L'Eau is excellent IMO.
post #47 of 112
L'Autre would be the one I'd pick.
post #48 of 112
Philosykos- a whole fig tree in a small bottle! doesnt last long though

May be the new packaging/juice they are putting out will who knows
post #50 of 112
My favorite of the several I've tried is L'Ombre Dans L'Eau - but then I love the overgrown walled rose garden feel accentuated by the smell of freshly crushed and prickly tomato leaves.

34 Boulevard St Germain gets a thumbs up as well...especially the dry down. As mentioned by others mildly chaotic at first as it cycles through the Diptyque gallery of scents, but the end is sublime...a romantic symphony concluding with a contented deep sigh and expectation of further pleasures.

A great and under-rated house with reasonable pricing.

Love this stuff! Been on a huge cumin kick and this has helped sate it. The Eau Mage is also very good (and also uses cumin).

= the correct response

Virgilio
post #54 of 112
After seeing this thread I realized I had a small spray sample of Eau Duelle and pulled the cap noticing there was a little of the juice on the sprayer. Barely any to be honest but I rubbed it on my wrists and was reminded how incredible this scent is. I'm not sure I could pull it off but this would smell amazing on a woman and any that would be wearing this would have me spellbound.

I haven't had a chance to sample any of the others from this house but if their compositions are anything like ED I suspect I would like at least a few of them.
post #55 of 112
I'm a sucker for Tam Dao
post #56 of 112
L'Ombre Dans L'Eau, though Eau Lente and Philosykos would run it close.
post #57 of 112
L'Ombre dans l'Eau, Philosykos, and the Neroli cologne are all great but I'm going to be the odd man out and go with Eau de Lierre. Poor thing gets no love, but I find it quite nice and although it is a leafy-green fragrance it has insane longevity for me.

I've to add ^^^^ this to what I already listed. It is rapidly growing on me as well...
post #59 of 112
philosykos. I have liked them all, but found the others less compelling (ie i have forgotten what they smell like)

For me, its Eau Duelle and or Tom Dao - very refined, beautiful.
