Description
Eau Capitale is Diptyque’s grand tribute to Paris—a modern chypre composed by Olivier Pescheux. A sparkling opening of pink pepper and bergamot leads to a singular rose note, dense and bright. Patchouli in the base adds a touch of shadow, evoking the architectural grace and layered beauty of the city itself. Sophisticated and expressive, this is a timeless floral with a sharp, contemporary edge.
