Lazulio

I purchased a Diptyque perfume, and Lazulio was included as a discovery sample gift. I was very surprised! I already own Bois Impérial by Quentin Bisch, which I absolutely love, and I’ve also smelled Experimentum Crucis from him and both are beautifully made. Lazulio is no exception. As soon as I sprayed the sample and let it dry down on my skin, I fell in love. It’s addicting, alluring, powdery, and mysterious. It’s also incredibly strong, just three sprays, and eight hours later I can still smell it clearly on both my skin and clothes. I immediately purchased a 10 ml bottle. Since it’s quite powerful, I don’t see myself wearing it daily. It’s such a unique scent that I imagine saving it for special and specific occasions, like going out to a bar and dinner with friends, NYC museum, a speakeasy, or even an outdoors wedding. It feels eccentric, creative, earthy, bold, and experimental, I feel at times on a Broadway Play or in a circus somehow. definitely not your everyday fragrance. If I had to describe it, I’d say it smells like walking into a refined, luxurious antique shop where everything is velvet-draped, expensive, and timeless. It has a powdery, earthy, and slightly mineral vibe. It actually reminds me a bit of Cockatiel by Zoologist, but while Cockatiel becomes too sour and off-putting on my skin (kind of like birds in a dirty cage, possibly due to the rhubarb and champagne), Lazulio is beautifully blended and doesn’t have that issue at all.

I’ve received an official sample of this and I need more 🤤... This is a very tart rhubarb with vetiver, and even though I’m not a vetiver fan, I do really love this combination. It is uniseks, slightly leaning towards feminine, it smells very clean but not in the cliche soapy floral way but more a herbal & woody clean. Whiffs of a bath in a country house, if that makes sense? Washing line drying, sun light pouring in, windows open.... I do recognise the familiarity with Tilia, but where I find that one to be a bit too floral, Lazulio is blended perfection. Just the right amount of sour & wood, with just a little floral note to make it interesting. I’ve sprayed some on before bed and it is still present 8+ hours later.

People want reviews (especially the actual rating) about the actual perfume, not your opinion about the perfumer if you haven’t even tried it. The 3.4 does not reflect the actual scent. You would think it was one of DT’s perfumes or something. I blind bought this, because I love Lilyphea, the notes looked right up my alley, and because I trust QB to blend the notes beautifully. I was not wrong. The tartness isn’t screechy and is balanced by the floral, vetiver and benzoin. After about 30 minutes on my skin, it smells like a lovely tart rose, warmed up by the vetiver and benzoin. To me, this seems more like a cooler weather perfume, especially if you’re not a big gourmand or beast mode fan.

Diptique perfumes are always interesting and generally have a transparent texture. Lazulio is among their heaviest, and while I can see it being polarizing, it smells divine to me. The rhubarb is an acquired taste, but here it is well balanced, and after a while it blends in with the vetiver and other sweet notes, lingering and bouncing off your skin for hours. It's expensive, and definitely not a blind buy. But if you like rhubarb scents, this is as good as it gets. (Hermes' version is lighter, with nowhere near the staying power).

It smells like my grandmother brought rhubarb in from her garden, stewed it down, poured it into a casserole dish, then topped it with a crumble of oats, flour, butter, sugar, and vanilla before baking it until the whole house smelled warm and golden. Then she made Bird’s custard, poured it over everything, and now I’m sitting in front of a bowl with the rhubarb, crumble, and custard all mixed together. It doesn’t just smell like rhubarb to me. It smells like a memory. Warm, tart, creamy, nostalgic, and completely comforting.

I fell in love with this perfume in store and I am generally not huge fan Q.B work. (haters gonna skate) This is everything i want in a perfume. I don't even remember how rhubarb even smells like. Dreamy, sophisticated little bit green. This is why I like dyptique out of all perfume houses a LOT their scents are like fairytail elegance in a bottle. I could smell this perfume on my clothing for 3 days. I think my love for L'Eau Papier has been dethroned to a second place.

It’s worth trying honestly, I don’t think it makes sense to prejudge the perfume based on the perfumer. A perfumer’s jobs is at least somewhat to sublimate whatever their personal style is to suit the brand they’re working under, and I think this release matches with Diptyque’s brand. It’s a resinous slightly sweet but vegetal perfume with the kind of sweaty affect rhubarb can sometimes have. It’s actually very good and feels in the same realm as Kyoto and Corail Oscuro.

After an 1hr this really reminds me of Tilia (my signature scent), but if Tilia was more tart/sour and rhubarb centered. Projects strongly on clothes. I think its really nice and a real departure from Diptyques usual offerings. This doesn't fit in the essence collection in my opinion, its very much it's own thing and should have been in the normal EDP range - I guess they just wanted to charge more for the Bisch price tag. If I didn't own Tilia I would buy!

Addictive!!!Cant even describe why.I was not impressed at the beginning.”Blah,blah,blah, another Bisch creation with ambroxan”But it’s grew on me and I need a full bottle after 2 samples.It’s so comforting and peaceful that you can spray it before bed .The longevity is pretty good,it’s soft but it’s staying for quite a while and actually it gets better.Magic!

I think my nose is playing tricks on me. For me this leans on the petrichorish theme for me. A perfected eldo's hermann a mes cotes, dare i say. Edit: okay, wow, i just discovered Quentin is also the nose behind hermann a mes cotes, after looking it up again. I feel validated with my judgment now hehe. Nevertheless, this frag is a love for me.

Oh my! This is lovely. Reminds me of a tea scent but there's no tea notes listed. I love this! Green, fresh, slightly sweet. Not sure why it has such a low rating as this is a great release, perfect for summer and perfect to set you apart from endless Acqua Di Gios and Sauvages out there. Absolutely worth trying if you love tea-like scents.

As a rhubarb freak who is painfully aware that the scent doesn't necessarily translate to skin - this is exquisite. Bright and sour and also dirty and dark - just like forced rhubarb. The dry-down experience is like baking a rhubarb dessert - starts with a crisp and sour freshness and mellows to something spicy and creamy.

A very unique perfume, and one of my favorites. The rhubarb is so realistic that when I wear it, my face tends to feel a bit warm, the way it does when eating real tangy foods. It feels like a slap in the face, but in a good way. I don't spray it on my clothes, as it is just too long-lasting and intense.

I don’t understand so low rating for this perfume , I tried this perfume at the store , the opening note is fresh floral and a bit salty which I loved and then later after 3-4h it still has a little sweet fresh scent left on my skin , I love it , definitely want to buy it

Salty grapefruit, with a hint of fresh, slightly green floral. Transparently, I have no idea what rhubarb smells like. But I liked this! To me it’s very appealing, yet still unique and intriguing. In sunny 80 degree temps, I kept going back for sniffs.

Please ignore the low rating for this fragrance (among others). Trolls have taken over Fragrantica. They get especially mad when a fragrance is expensive. Just tell us you're broke....no need to tank ratings just because you can't afford this hobby.

Very tangy and fruity but then the floral comes thru. I was not expecting to love it as much as I did. The rhubarb helps the florals smell a bit more green to me. Like you’re holding stems in your hand. Perfect scent for a spring or summer rotation.

I would even be tempted to say it's a twist between Delina and Encelade. This is Encelade but less leathery green and more floral rosy (Kind of delina a bit rose oxyde with green notes), nothing new and not at all creative but really really good.

I just sprayed it and haven't spent much time with it, yet off the rip it reminds me of L'Artisan Parfumeur Vétiver Écarlate swapping the Rhubarb for tomatoes. Its very nice, fresh and green.

“I detest the work of Bisch!!” the weirdo commenters below say. Yet they are here commenting on his unreleased fragrance before even smelling it. Sick obsession to be a hater. Get a life.
