Diptyque Orphéon is a unisex eau de parfum with a woody chypre character for both women and men. It presents an olfactory portrait of the former Parisian bar Orphéon, which was frequented by the brand's founders. It draws inspiration from the atmosphere of the Saint-Germain district in the early 1960s, associated with jazz clubs and artistic gatherings.

About the Brand

Diptyque was founded in Paris in 1961 by Desmond Knox-Leet, Christiane Montadre-Gautrot and Yves Coueslant. The brand's first boutique was opened at 34 boulevard Saint-Germain in the 5th arrondissement of Paris.

Orphéon thus follows in the Parisian roots of Diptyque and the neighbourhood where the brand opened its first boutique.
