Diptyque Eau Moheli Eau Mohéli takes its name from the smallest of the Comoros Islands (Eastern Africa) dove where ylang-ylang is born. This yellow flower becomes the protagonist of the new fragrance Diptyque which after the Hespéridés una series of EdT focused on sweet and spicy citrus notes also presented the Florales collection that creates an olfactory journey along an imaginary flowered avenue. After launching Eau de Rose which celebrated the scent of roses, the maison returns with Eau Mohéli that pays homage to ylang-ylang with its almost narcotic, intoxicating scent that immediately transports you to exotic and distant places. Ylang-ylang is considered the most seductive and narcotic flower of the plant kingdom, so much so that it is nicknamed the “flower of flowers.” A tropical prey coveted by perfumers due to its aroma sweet and aphrodisiac scent that explodes from its golden cluster corollas during the dry season of the African continent, ylang-ylang is also known by its botanical name cananga odorata and grows on the smallest of the Comoros islands, Mohéli, a lush and fragrant Eden garden where the aromas of Africa, the scents of the Indian Ocean, and the fragrances of Arab culture meet. A flower so fascinating that in the past it enchanted Jean Paul Guerlain so much that it became the protagonist of the olfactory pyramid of Mayotte (formerly Mahora) could not leave Diptyque maison, known for its fragrances that invite travel, indifferent. Thus, Diptyque set off on a journey to Mohéli with the intention of uncovering the aromatic secrets hidden in the long ruffled petals of ylang-ylang and then turning it into a perfume for Les Florales, the collection that distills the aromatic aura of iconic flowers. Olivier Pescheux, the nose behind the fragrances, tells this raw material in a new way that leaves out the notes of camphor, jasmine, and tuberose and focuses on violet and blackcurrant that accompany and envelop ylang-ylang, adding spicy notes like pink pepper. Given its tropical nature, ylang-ylang is an impatient and capricious flower. It requires to be harvested every week in the morning at dawn because otherwise, it risks losing its fragrance, and then distilled within two hours of being picked. Women gently collect the yellow flowers directly from the tree to then place them in woven baskets to be weighed and subsequently distilled. The locally conducted distillation process can take up to twenty hours, and the first four allow for the production of the best qualities that diptyque will use. Always in search of quality raw materials, Diptyque is currently participating in the sustainable development project carried out for many years by Givaudan on the island of Mohéli to prevent the “flower of flowers” from disappearing completely. By participating in the development of nurseries, the maison contributes in two ways to stabilize the supply and the exceptional quality of this exotic flower: on one hand through...

A classic and traditional heart in an intense modern world of Dolce & Gabbana is an "Eau de Parfum" for men belonging to the voody aromatic family. It is a fragrance that introduces us to the new D&G Man: a man of traditional and classic ideas, but who loves living in a modern world and is concerned about new discoveries and new technologies. This fragrance was created in 2014 and is aimed at a very virile Mediterranean man. Lover of good wine and classic elegance. A man who is intuitive and follows the instinct of his heart can therefore boast of strength, but he also has the gift of sensitivity. Its olfactory pyramid begins with aquatic notes, paying homage to the sea, an element very dear to the brand, which blends with the green notes of basil, geranium and marigold, a fresh and intense beginning, which leads the way from a heart led by tobacco, a masculine element for masculine excellence, which is combined with dry lander and theater flower. Its finish is the most surprising part of its wake, thanks to the addition of Moepel, along with hints of honey, Rockrose resin, sandalwood, musk and amber. Moepel. It is the main note of the fragrance. It is an innovation in perfumery, an accord created from the leaves and flowers of the milk tree, which is found in the rocky areas of tropical Africa. 20 years later.... 20 years after the launch of Dolce & Gabbana Pour Home, the company wanted to pay homage to it with this fragrance, which takes on a sweeter and more elegante of his predecessor. New generation D&G. Intense is the new vision of the Italian fashion brand for today's man. Modernity and classicism, opposite terms that complement each other perfectly.
