Diptyque
Orpheon
About
Orphéon Eau de Parfum by Diptyque is a Woody Chypre fragrance for Women and Men . Orphéon is a nostalgic tribute to the lively Saint Germain district in Paris during the 1960s, inspired by the namesake bar where Diptyque’s founders gathered in the evenings amidst jazz and camaraderie. This fragrance opens with a fresh bitterness from juniper berries, which melds into a subtle heart of jasmine, evoking a touch of floral warmth. The base is a rich blend of powdery notes and cedar, with tonka bean adding a warm, tobacco-like depth. Orphéon is a sophisticated scent that weaves together smoky, powdery, and woody notes, embodying the vibrant spirit of Parisian nights. Perfect for lovers of classic, warm, and slightly smoky fragrances, Orphéon is ideal for evening wear, creating an elegant and atmospheric aura. Release Year: 2021 Concentration: Eau De Parfum Nose:
**Diptyque Orphéon** opens with a dry, cool accord of juniper, like the first sip of gin in the dim light of a bar. After a few minutes, the fragrance softens and jasmine appears at the center with a light powdery veil—never sweet, but velvety, almost cosmetic in texture. Iris adds a smooth suede-like touch that makes the composition feel even quieter and more refined on skin. The base rests on warm cedar and tonka bean: the wood smells clean and composed, while the tonka brings a soft almond-tobacco nuance. Benzoin rounds everything into a gentle, slightly resinous trail without turning heavy. It wears close but remains present, especially beautiful in cool weather and evening air. This is a woody-powdery portrait of a Paris night, hushed and faintly smoky.
