Chic Delights: Diptyque Paris

I am sharing with you my spring favourites in cosmetics and perfumes. I believe that Spring is a season for renewal, to lighten up and to add colours in our make-up and fashion. For fragrances, I am loving the Diptyque Paris personal fragrances, particularly the Eau des Sens which has orange blossoms, juniper berries and patchouli and L'Ombre dans l'Eau which has blackcurrant leaves and Bulgarian roses. Both eaux de toilettes are refreshing to wear for spring. For make-up, I purchased the new Chanel Les Beiges healthy glow and luminous powder, the Jardins de Lumieres quad eye shadow which is a limited edition and for lipstick, from the Cruise collection, the Coco Rouge lipstick, Esquisse. Then, I never leave the house without using the Chanel Le Crayon Sourcils in brun naturel for my brows. I am always excited to wear them this spring which adds a lighter style to start my day.

It was love at first sight for me when I saw the Diptyque store at 34 Boulevard Saint- Germain in Paris. The store is near the Sorbonne - University de Paris and walking distance from my hotel. To my sheer delight, Holt Renfrew Bloor Street expanded their collection and opened a boutique inside their store. The collection has now expanded from their world famous and super fragrant luxurious candles to Eaux de parfums, Eaux de toilette, home fragrances, face and body care, soaps, lip balms and even facial oils. I've been lucky to receive some luxurious candles from a special friend as gifts. For someone like me, who is very sensitive to scent to the point that I can get allergies, Diptyque is like a perfect match point. I don't get an allergy from this brand. From this visit, I purchased their new Spring fragrance called L'Ombre Dans l'Eau collection which is described as walking through an English garden with moss and continuing to another garden of roses. Doesn't that just sound so wonderful and dreamy?

Parfum and Eau de Toilette collection.

My other favourite that I recently discovered is the Eau des Sens Eau de toilette which is made of orange blossoms, bitter orange, juniper berries, angelica and patchouli. I will buy that next as I am now hooked. Too bad, my birthday is still far away.

Luxury candles collection which are all so fragrant. Their design is simple and elegant. You know that in its simplicity and elegance, there is a luxurious gift hidden that needs to be discovered.
