Key Notes

Steamed Rice, Luminous Mimosa, Deep Blonde Wood Accord

  • About The Fragrance

    A light and fresh white musk fragrance inspired by paper composed of notes of steamed rice, luminous mimosa and a deep blonde wood accord.

    A tribute to paper and its power to unleash the imagination. As ink soaks into a sheet of white paper, shadows emerge. Worlds are invented. L'Eau Papier celebrates the power of the imagination, that moment, suspended in time, when ink, paper and the hand become one.

    An encounter made perfume, plunging us into the heart of musk and its multiple facets. Musk evolves, changes, expresses itself over time and from one skin to another, just as ink saturates paper, assuming its texture to conjure up dreams and images. In L'Eau Papier, white musks are delicately faceted by an accord of rice steam, evoking the grain of the paper. To these are added luminous notes of mimosa, while a backdrop of blonde wood tones grounds L'Eau Papier in the material itself.

    Developed in collaboration with perfumer Fabrice Pellegrin and artist Alix Waline. L'Eau Papier is a tribute to creation (the backbone of the Maison) and to paper, the primary means by which that creation is expressed. The name of this creation brings together water and paper, recalling both the history of the Maison and the founding trio's driving passion for the line and the brushstroke. It conjures up the diluted ink that permeates the page and calls forth shape, the act performed by every artist composing a drawing and giving free rein to their imagination. In this Eau de Toilette, the perfumer used Grasse mimosa, a variety that has been cultivated since 1865. Its downy yellow flowers bloom in February on the hills around the town of Grasse, offering a stunning sight scented with sunny, floral and honeyed notes.

    For the bottle, French artist Alix Waline has stayed true to her own style, fashioning a work in delicate black and white, deploying shades and textures in abundance, and elaborating the drawing dot by dot, layer by layer. In a complete contrast to traditional illustrations for diptyque perfumes, there is no recognizable figure or scenery, rather, an impressionistic, abstract composition in black and white.

Gorgeous

I’ve been looking for a beautiful skin scent for ages and finally found one I love. There’s something so warm and comforting about it. Don’t be put off by the prominent rice opening it drys down to a beautiful musky your skin but better scent. Longevity isn’t that great but I don’t mind reapplying. It leans more unisex, which I actually enjoy.

my new favourite

Received as part of The Fragrance Library Edit. Very different and absolutely lovely. I am pairing it with the Glossier You (which was also int he same edit and the reason I ordered it in the first place). A body wash and hair mist also available in the same scent. May be tempted as these are not available in the Glossier You range.

Fresh and Modern

Smells feminine and fresh. It doesn’t overpower or overwhelm me. I can be sensitive to scents and this is perfect.

Lovely but longevity could be better

I am a huge Diptyque fan and I went to try this in store as soon as it launched. I wasn’t sure to left it a while and finally purchased aftter Alice Du Parcq reviewed it. It is a beautiful soft, creamy and clean fragrance. Great for daytime if you want something subtle. However, that is part of my issue. It doesn’t have great longevity and I barely notice it aftwr only a fairly short time. If you are happy to reapply then not a big issue.

Lovely unisex / masculine leaning fresh scent

A lovely fresh scent, the woody notes make it lean masculine, and I don’t know how Diptique do it but it does dry down to have this papery scent which mixes with your own skin smell wonderfully. I take a star off since it wears off quickly from the skins (2-3 hours) so I recommend spraying it on your clothes too for better longevity.

Stunning fragrance

A stunning fragrance, quite addictive – I’ve already used up a third of the bottle in just a month. It has a clean, comforting musk with a hint of steamed rice/sesame, which is unlike anything else I own. It’s warm and soothing in a way that makes you want to keep wearing it. I do wish there was an EDP version available, as I’d love it to last even longer.

Clean with some pepper notes !!

This scent is so clean and it wakes me up . At first it’s strong but in a subtle way , then it settles down to a clean fresh scent .

Gorgeous milky, nutty scent

I fell in love with this scent when I first smelt it at the Diptyque store and waited for a special occasion to treat myself. This is such a unique and gorgeous scent, you can definitely smell the toasted rice note because it is so creamy and warm. I constantly find myself sniffing my wrist whenever I wear it and I've been complimented on it before. Also, it smells quite similar to the old formulation of Glossier You, but definitely less sweet. It's a gorgeous and comforting scent. Sometimes I'll just go and sniff it directly from the bottle on my shelf lol. My only criticism is that it just doesn't last very long at all, especially on the skin. I find myself needing to reapply it during the day. It it usually gone within an hour, and it doesn't last beyond a day on my clothes. It's a shame given the price point and how lovely it smells. However, this may differ per person so I would recommend trying it out first. I'm sniffing my wrist as I type this lol.
