Do Son Perfumed Soap Set (Limited Edition)

Details & care

What it is: A limited-edition, beautifully boxed set of three rounded bar soaps perfumed with the floral scent of Do Son.

Fragrance story: This scented soap is composed of a plant base, enriched with sweet almond oil. It offers up a delicate foam fragranced with floral notes of Do Son. Diptyque draws its inspiration from the history of perfume by reinventing the textures of scent to offer a new approach to personal scenting, deemed Fragrance Gestures. It is a way to make the invisible sensual and the ethereal tangible. This fragrance was inspired by Yves Coueslant, one of diptyque's founders, who as a child spent his summers at the seaside in a pagoda that his father had built in Do Son, close to Ha Long Bay. Far from the humid heat of the large port in Haiphong, the air was cooler there. The sea breeze carried with it the heady and slightly spicy scent of tuberose that his mother loved so much. Do Son has both the delicateness and the persistence of a memory from a childhood in Indochina. At the Haiphong market, tuberose are wrapped together with jasmine and ylang-ylang in large canna leaves to be used as offerings.

Style: Floral.

Notes: Tuberose, orange blossom, jasmine, marine accord.
