In December, Nose collaborates with Diptyque to offer a scented gift set. For any brand purchase above 100 euro incl. tax (80 euro excl. tax), depending on the available quantities, the brand offers a gift set including a 35g Figuier candle and a 26g Philosykos soap.

Philosykos is one of the iconic fragrances by Diptyque. Its name means "friend of the fig tree" in ancient Greek, and the whole fragrance is an ode to this wild Mediterranean tree.

Back from Greece, the painter Desmond Knox-Leet and the designer Yves Coueslant gifted their co-founder Christiane with a box containing a few olfactory memories: a vine leaf, a fragment of marble from the Acropolis, a piece of ceramic from Mycenae and a shell from their favorite beach. Several years later, this present inspired the creation of Philosykos. This fragrance is a tribute to the landscape of ​​Mount Pelion, neighboring the sea: the green and pungent freshness of the fig leaves, the wood heated by the sun and the milky flavor of the fruit. As in every creation Diptyque, an olfactory accident enlivens this fragrance: black pepper.

What’s an "olfactory accident"? It is actually the temperament, the cachet, the final and unexpected note in the formulation that the perfumer adds to each creation. The surprising note that vibrates within the olfactory composition.
