Founded in 1961 at 34 Boulevard Saint-Germain in Paris by three visionary artists, Diptyque began as a boutique selling fabrics and decorative objects before pioneering the luxury scented candle in 1963. The house released its first fragrance, L'Eau, in 1968, establishing itself as a cornerstone of niche perfumery. Known for its distinctive black and white oval labels and artistic approach to scent creation, Diptyque draws inspiration from nature, travel, and art.

Diptyque decants & perfume samples — your questions answered

Are Diptyque decants and perfume samples authentic?

Yes. Scento states that each decant is hand-poured from an original full-sized bottle sourced through authorised European retailers — never a clone, dupe or inspired-by version. Manufacturer batch codes belong to those original bottles and are not printed on Scento decant vials.

How many sprays are in a Diptyque sample?

As a rough guide, a perfume atomizer gives about 10–15 sprays per millilitre, so a 2ml Diptyque sample is roughly 20–30 sprays, a 5ml about 50–75, and an 8ml about 80–120. Exact counts vary with the atomizer and how heavily you spray. Available sizes: 2ml, 5ml, 8ml.

Do I pay customs or VAT on Diptyque samples in the EU?

No extra customs for EU orders. Scento ships Diptyque decants from within the EU to 27 European markets, so EU buyers pay no import duties or customs charges and usually receive their order in 1–5 business days. Orders to non-EU European countries may be subject to local import VAT set by your country, not by Scento.

Should I buy a Diptyque decant or a full bottle?

Buy a decant to test or rotate a scent, and a full bottle once you know you love it. A 2ml decant is only about 2–4% of a 50–100ml bottle, so it lets you wear Diptyque for days before committing to full-bottle price. For sealed presentation or gifting, an official boutique or authorised retailer is the better route.

Which Diptyque fragrance should I try first?

Philosykos and Tam Dao are the Diptyque fragrances our members reach for most, so they are the easiest place to start. If you want to explore further, Philosykos, Tam Dao, Eau Duelle make a strong first set in affordable decant sizes.
