L’eau des Hesperides
Eau de Cologne
by Diptyque



The Scoop
Dynamic and invigorating. This cologne opens traditionally with a surprisingly tart citrus. The bitter orange and lemon are strong and very tangy, with minimal sweetness. A therapeutic dose of aromatic herbs comes in boldly, equally as brisk as the citrus, featuring thyme, rosemary and a powerful peppermint, which is extremely satisfying as it is both very peppery and very minty. The distinctive maple-tinged sweetness of everlasting flower, also known as immortelle, counters the coolness of the mint. A provocative blend of strong, contrasting elements dancing over a clean base of musk and wood. Sharp and intriguing.

Knock your socks off! Yes! Deliciously unique! The first 5 minutes I wore this I was completely put off, in fact I did not like it at all. Give it a few minutes-let it work it's magic. It's great and it's different, it's indescribable and it's deliciously me!

There is nothing I know of in the perfume world like this fragrance. An amazing takeoff of juicy mandarin an orange, with a rainlike "wetness" that is most quenching and invigorating.... Then comes a tsunami of aromatic thyme and menthol. While the ad copy reads "peppermint", let me say that I read the mint as pure menthol, with no candylike, afterdinner mint or Christmas peppermint overtones. The selfsame note of pure menthol one gets in good menthol cigarettes. Through this cool wave of nose-clearing, foglifting aromatics lingers hints of sweet immortelle and what I believe is a tangy lime/neroli. To make this all sit on your skin in a comfy way, the base gives you a clean skin musk. The aromatic wave subsides but never disappears, giving you a most refreshed, clean feeling. Can you handle a truly Aromatic fragrance? ie., one with notes which some might call medicine-like or barbershoppy (mint, thyme, rosemary, camphor, sage, etc.). If it's a scent quality you like, then look no further... this is the Aromatic to top them all. Aromatics are impossibly refreshing in very hot climates, after a shower. Try putting the flacon in the fridge... Bliss! Highly recommended.

This is a unique fragrance, everything as described above, yet a bit bohemian at heart. Something different, that's for sure! I highly recommend anyone with the least bit of curiosity to try this one. It's great, but definitely unusual. You won't smell like anyone else the day(s) you wear this, and that's a good thing!

This was one of the recommendations for people that like Citron Citron by Miller Harris. I had high hopes for L'eau des Hesperides, but it doesn't seem to like my body chemistry... it smells just like Tommy Girl on me, and keeps getting stronger and stronger!

This is an usual scent but quite nice. I smell bitter orange, lemon and peppermint - all of it very subtle. Diptyque has such great perfumes that this comes somewhere in the middle of the pack for me. Nonetheless, it's better than just about anything you could buy easily over a counter in a drugstore somewhere.
