**Diptyque Eau des Sens** opens like cold orange peel just cut with a knife: a spray of juice, citrus bitterness and transparent green facets. In the first minutes it feels almost sparkling, with the dry edge of juniper and the herbal sharpness of angelica. Then a soft, slightly creamy orange blossom moves into the centre, not sugary but airy and pale. Neroli adds a clean white freshness that makes the composition feel composed and distinctly urban. On skin, the base settles into a fine woody-patchouli trail with delicate musk, free of heaviness or sticky sweetness. The wear is moderate, yet the scent breathes beautifully through the day, fading and then flashing up again with its bitter citrus tone. It suits those who want a citrus fragrance with structure and character rather than a simple summer cologne.
