The story behind the bottle.
Tam Dao Eau de Toilette by Diptyque was launched in 2003, capturing the essence of French elegance with its woody and aromatic character. Created by perfumers Fabrice Pellegrin and Daniel Molière, this fragrance opens with a bright and fresh blend of Italian Cypress and Myrtle, before transitioning into a heart of Rose and Brazilian Rosewood. The base notes of Sandalwood, Cedar, Spices, Amber, and White Musk provide warmth and depth, making it a well-rounded composition that feels both modern and lasting.
Apply this fragrance lightly; its aromatic top notes are fleeting but impactful. The base notes bloom gradually over time, so it’s best to let them develop naturally throughout the day.
