Diptyque Do Son EDP

Description

Do Son is Diptyque's sea-breeze take on tuberose — fresh and dew-lit rather than the thick, opulent version the flower usually wears.

Created by perfumer Fabrice Pellegrin and launched in 2013, Do Son is a tribute to co-founder Yves Coueslant's childhood memories of summers in Do Son, a seaside resort in Vietnam. A peppery, citrus-green opening gives way to a luminous tuberose-jasmine heart, settling onto soft musk, rose and benzoin. Reviewers consistently point to its restraint — the tuberose reads breezy and sun-warmed, not heavy.

• Spicy — 26%

• Woody — 12%

Translation: a peppery, citrus-fresh top gives way to a luminous floral heart, with a soft sweet-woody warmth from musk and benzoin underneath. Bright and airy rather than a classic heavy tuberose.
