Diptyque ILIO Eau de Toilette Spray Unisex 100ml

To celebrate summer, Diptyque transports us to the heart of Mediterranean nature. A land of unspoilt beauty, of scents and colours, the Mediterranean has been a constant source of inspiration for the Maison. From the prickly pears clustering along a narrow cove to the lavender and lemongrass on a terrace at sunset, to smell their scents is to be swept away to a far-off place. Escape with Diptyque's collection of summer essentials: an Eau de Toilette, a hair mist, a mosquito repellent and a scented insert infused with plants from the Mediterranean basin. The artist Matthieu Cossé has decorated each item in the collection. The Maison's iconic oval is enlivened with colour, while original illustrations adorn the bottles and candle jars. This is a summer to be experienced with all the senses. On the coast, the rocky cliffs plunge into waves caressed by the sun. The sea stretches to the horizon to meet the sky. For Diptyque's founders, the Mediterranean was the 'landscape of the soul'. This is where they came in the summer, to relax and repose in the heart of unspoilt nature. Ilio is a tribute to this Mediterranean land bathed in light and fragrance. At the heart of the composition is an unusual fruit with fresh, juicy notes: the prickly pear. Bergamot illuminates its liveliness while jasmine brings nuance, softening its green facets with a delicate floral note. The final touch: iris rounds out the accord with a velvety softness. The artist Matthieu Cossé has illustrated the iconic oval on this limited-edition bottle – a creation of colourful simplicity that celebrates the authenticity of nature in the summertime.
