Bois Corsé Eau de Parfum

What it is: A dreamy eau de parfum that pays tribute to tree bark, with rough yet soothing elements that come vividly to life. This olfactory and visual composition is part of Les Essences de Diptyque, a collection that freely reinterprets the treasures of nature, alternating between the realistic and the fantastical.

Fragrance story: Bois Corsé is a tribute to bark, the vital protective mantle that shields the vulnerable core of the tree. A combination of intense black coffee absolute and essence of sandalwood, with tonka bean blended in. A fragrance with a lingering sillage, its name a play on words: "écorce" is French for "bark," and "corsé" means "full-bodied" like the coffee aroma celebrated here. The bottle is decorated with fine black lines inspired by the reliefs found in bark. The irregular forms on the sleeve evoke the texture of wood, its shape evolving with the passage of time.
