The story behind the bottle.
Philosykos Eau de Toilette by Diptyque, launched in 1996 and crafted by perfumer Olivia Giacobetti, is a distinctive aromatic green fragrance. The composition centers on the fig, with its top note of fresh fig, middle note of crisp fig leaf, and base note of earthy fig tree. This singular focus creates a layered sensory experience that captures the essence of the fruit in all its stages — from the juicy sweetness to the woody depth.
Apply this fragrance in light layers — its moderate longevity and sillage mean it stays close to the skin. The top notes are bright but fleeting, so allowing time for the base to develop will ensure a richer experience throughout the day.
