Diptyque fragrances are some of my favourite and I have a pretty hefty collection of them now. When people ask me what my favourite scent is….it is actually probably the Diptyque Do Son Eau de Toilette. I think it’s an absolute stunning fragrance and it evokes wonderful memories for me as it is a fragrance I have worn for over 10 years now.
Diptyque Do Son: Tuberose, Orange blossom, Jasmine, Amber wood
Diptyque Do son is described as a floral fragrance for women. It has notes of tuberose, orange blossom, jasmine and amber wood. It’s a very pretty and warm fragrance.
Diptyque Do Son Review :
As a child, Yves Coueslant, one of diptyque’s founders, spent his summers in Do Son, in Halong Bay. The sea breeze carried with it the heady, spicy scent of tuberoses. Do Son has the delicateness and persistence of a memory from a childhood in Indochina – a memory of flowers in all their sensual delight.
Diptyque Do Son was created and launched in 2005 and is described as a floral fragrance for women. The nose behind this fragrance is Fabrice Pellegrin. Top notes are African Orange flower, iris and Rose; middle notes are Tuberose and Pink Pepper; base notes are Benzoin and Musk.
This fragrance is really built all around the intoxicating scent of the tuberose flower which takes centre stage. Think white flowers against wood…a warm sea breeze and twinkling, quiet reflection in water. It is a sensual delight and I find it really warming and pretty.
My personal Diptyque Do Son journey : I used to work in a perfume boutique many years ago and got chatting to a lady who started to talk about this fragrance. She was a casual-glam lady : she had money but it wasn’t on show….someone who appeared super switched on to all things beauty and I have a feeling she worked in fashion and was a bit of a social butterfly. In my mind I was like ‘ma’am you are really fucking cool’. I think she was around 60…and she was off to Ibiza to probably hang in super-expensive-and-trendy-restaurants-where-people-wear-swimwear-and-chanel. She NEEDED Diptyque Do Son to take on holiday with her as it was her summer fragrance. She insisted that I smelt it at my next opportunity and that was the start of my Diptyque Do Son journey – that’s how it came into my life! The cool lady in the shop.
It is actually one of my all-time favourites scents from Diptyque. I *do* tend to wear it more in the summer, maybe influenced by my story above on how I got introduced to it. I think of it as Ibiza, warmth, holidays, dry sun and a sea breeze. Even though it is definitely a floral fragrance is has that bit of something that sets it apart from others.

What does diptyque Do Son smell like?
Do Son captures the intoxicating scent of the rare tubéreuse flower for an exotic olfactory experience. It is a floral fragrance for women and also has notes of orange flower, iris, rose, jasmine pink pepper, benzoin and musk. I think it has a warm sweetness to it : it’s a pretty, sexy and sensual scent. I prefer it as a summer fragrance personally but I know lots who love it all year round. You can certainly smell tuberose as the main note and I always notice the orange blossom straight away when it is first spritzed onto the skin.
Is Diptyque Do Son unisex?
It absolutely up to the wearer and personal taste. It was made with women in mind and I would say it’s very much a typical women’s scent in terms of sweetness and floral. Men’s fragrances tend to be more aqua / water / citrus and musky and this is none of those things really. It does have base notes of musk but it’s still not a very heavy or masculine smelling fragrance. As a gift I wouldn’t get this for a man unless they told me they loved it!

It can be really scary purchasing a fragrance you haven’t actually smelt in real life….I’ve only ever done it once myself BUT if you buy a Diptyque fragrance from the Diptyque website…each fragrance purchase will now include a matching sample. you can then use the sample to test the fragrance on your skin before opening the full-size bottle. Just make sure you don’t rip open the packing on the main bottle as Diptyque will only accept unopened returns within 28 days of original purchase.
