Eau Plurielle

In my humble opinion, this is Diptyque’s best fragrance. Whenever I pass a boutique, I’ll try out a few various scents and always a spritz of this one—and it’s my perennial favorite. It shares the rose note with Eau Rose, but it’s so much nicer here. I feel like its simplicity is its strength. It’s sheer and refreshing and so luxurious and sophisticated... it’s effortless. It has a certain spa-like quality, but also a tangible fresh laundry quality (as attested to in the official fragrance description of a “scent of a fresh sheet laid on a bed of ivy and roses from Turkey”.) I get a mildly herbal rosewater vibe, some green leaves, and fleeting hints of soapy musk. Its performance is also perfect for me—not at all oppressive or cloying, yet present and noticeable with moderate longevity. I went to finally pick up a bottle yesterday—but I was told it’s been out of stock for months! I hope it’s not discontinued. I was at the new (and impossibly beautiful) London flagship on New Bond Street and had to wander to the very back of the shop to find a single tester bottle nearly empty hidden on a side shelf! Diptyque last year launched a household collection (La Droguerie) of candles and cleaners and such which I thought was conceptually interesting, but I didn’t find the scent particularly great. I wish they would reimagine Eau Plurielle in a similar vein, possibly even consider a collection based around it—the concept of “plurality” is a rich one, and I think if given a proper spotlight, this scent would be quite popular.

Above notes are not correct. This scent is supposed to marry ivy and Turkish rose with wood and musk notes: "Its light mist is reminiscent of the scent of fresh linen that has long been laid on a bed of ivy and Turkish roses. A few seductive hesperidia notes introduce the accord, while musk and wood give it strength and staying power." Plurielle is a little less syrupy than roses like Jo Malone Red Roses. I will use other diptyque fragrances to create Plurielle's scent profile. It is definitely a lot greener than Eau Rose or the old Rosamundi scent. Less sweet as well, much more of the actual rose plant than just petals or rose essence. The pink rose is certainly there, while the ivy note is softer than the icy fresh one that characterizes Eau de Lierre. The ivy in Plurielle is more of a young green sprout than a fully actualized, ripened ivy vine. In regards to L'ombre dans L'eau, this has a similar crisp quality, but Plurielle is much sweeter and more floral. I got about 5 hours wear from the EDT. I think it is a lovely scent for the spring months, but I still prefer Eau Rose because of the interesting honey/lychee elements.

A lovely green scent, although there are no particular green notes listed. I wear this a lot before I go to bed, actually. I find it zen and calming. There's a muskiness that balances with the citrusy-ness that makes the scent seem quite green, but after it sits on my skin it takes on a soapy quality. It's fresh but still has depth and richness. It's quite dry as well. I find Diptyque scents to be quite difficult to explain because there's nothing quite like them. It's always interest at first sniff, but then after wearing them I grow to love them in their own way. 8.5/10

this doesn't smell like citrusy at all, if i have to describe, it's pure rose - think of fresh roses with stems and leaves covered in morning dews. i was tempted to get eau rose for me because it's the perfect rose scent, until i had eau plurielle on. the reason why i got it is because it's more long lasting than eau rose, which vanished after just 10 minutes. the price value is good, the bottle is huge so i can spray it on my blanket and body without feeling sorry lol. so yeah, if you love realistic, fresh rose scent, this-is-it!!!!!!!!

Eau Plurielle was my first Diptyque fragrance, so it holds a special place for me. I get vinegar and rose from it, but in the best possible way: more like a clean white vinegar than a sharp citrus note. It feels fresh, airy, and clean without becoming oily or overly sweet. I loved spraying this on my cashmere sweaters and in my drawers because it creates such a pleasant, neutral, freshly washed scent. Unfortunately, it’s not the easiest fragrance to find, but it remains one of my favorite Diptyque scents.
