The Perfume

The Do Son fragrance is a light and floral scent. Inspired by the childhood memories of one of the brand's founders, it leaves your sensations tingling each time you wear it.

The Inspiration

It is said that odours take us back to a place or person we know, and that's exactly what this perfume was created for.

Taking a step into the deep and fond memories of Yves Coueslants memories. Do Son represents the mixture of scents found as he wandered the streets of Do Son in Ha Long Bay. A fresh sea breeze would whip up the almost spicy scent of tuberoses. In Indochina, at the Haiphong market, tuberoses, jasmine and ylang-ylang are wrapped with large canna leaves to form small offering bouquets.

The Notes

The perfume was created using raw materials such as Tuberose, Orange blossom, and Jasmine. This flower trio works perfectly, making a fresh and comforting floral note. Diptyque also included a deep and almost masculine Marine accord to the perfume. Just like in Do Son, the sea breeze elevates the floral notes.

The Bottle

Classical elegance always amazes me in the Diptyque designs. The Do Son bottle looks like a regular bottle from the front, but from the back, it is possible to admire the landscape from which the fragrance originates. Dressed in a transparent glass bottle, the floral juice captures and reflects light.

If you are considering offering this fragrance to a loved one, why not make it extra special by purchasing the limited edition?

Where to get your Diptyque scent?

If you wish to purchase one of these beautiful scents, you can find multiple stores in the United States, Europe and Asia. Diptyque offers excellent service and always makes you feel extra special. If you are short on time, head to their site for an at-home delivery.

My Review

Having travelled around multiple countries worldwide, I know it is a true gift to be able to capture a moment through perfume. Diptyque Do Son fragrance is beautiful, and I love how it instantly boosts ythe mood. Like a breath of fresh air, the scent has a long-lasting and addictive sillage. I only recently discovered this scent, which sits high on my list of floral fragrances. The Eau de toilette is easy to wear and stays long enough thanks to the jasmine notes inside.

Do Son is a fragrance for those who enjoy floral, powdered perfumes. It is well worth discovering, and you can ask for a sample in-store before taking the step to purchasing it.

Choosing a perfume as a gift can feel daunting, but this scent is low risk. It makes an excellent perfume for any time and any occasion.

Another favourite is Eau Rose parfum, which I enjoy all year round (review here).

A modern interpretation of the classical Rose scent

If you love floral scents or roses, this perfume should be up your street. Diptyque released this fragrance a while back as an EDT. In this more recent scent, the flower takes an unexpected turn, leaving you wanting more.

The Eau de rose perfume: Where elegance meets innovation.

This floral perfume has much more in store than a simple powdered rose fragrance. By using some of the best-known techniques in the perfume industry, Diptyque created this unique scent.

It is said that a good rose has a gentle scent of the artichoke to it, and that's just what this perfume reveals. With a trio of roses combined to perfection, the Eau de parfum leaves you with an addictive sillage throughout the day.

The Fragrance

Eau de rose is built around two main ingredients: An absolute of Damascena and centifolia roses. Already present in the fresher version of the scent (EDT), these flowers bring freshness. Therefore, the brand had to find a special touch to make the perfume as unique as it is.

The Firad Rose Essence

This rich rose essence has a fruity accent of litchi to it. It is obtained by upcycling the floral waters that remain after extraction. By using this technique, the more fruity notes of the flower are revealed.

The fragrance also contains notes of honeyed camomile and a singular, green, vegetal accord of artichoke. Combining fruity, sweet and green, the scent gains character and longevity.

Notes: Roses Damascena & Centifolia, Chamomile, Litchi.

The Difference Between EDT and EDP

EDT: Rose damascena, Rose centifolia, Litchi accord, Ambroxan.

The EDT has a fresh green scent to it. In this fragrance version, the Damaneca rose takes the front stage. Using the bud, stem and leaves to obtain a green fragrance.

Limited Edition Packaging

Whether it is a gift or for yourself, indulge in the beauty of the holiday glam. For the holiday season, the fragrance takes on a new appearance. The bottle is delivered in a deep red box and takes on a golden glow. The Diptyque Oval keeps its rose stems but with a touch of luxury. It is the ideal gift for those who already know the scent or love rose-fragranced perfumes.

My Review

Rose-based perfumes always take me back to old memories. When I discovered this scent, I was taken by surprise. The fragrance has the elegance of a rose with a younger, more vibrant accent. I could instantly smell the sweetness of the litchi mentioned in the notes. Also, the bottle is minimal and a good size. The perfume was present for 4-5 hours and worked well on fabrics or accessories. This perfume makes a beautiful gift for the Christmas period and is sure to brighten the person's everyday life. I recommend taking a sample of the scent before opening the bottle. That way, you can always exchange the fragrance if needed.

The other two go-to scents I enjoy are Eau Rose EDT (review here) and 34 Boulevard Saint-Germain Collection (review here).
