What it is: An eau de toilette inspired by fig trees in the heat of the summer in Greece. Fragrance story: Philosykos is an ode to the entire fig tree. The green freshness of the leaves, the milky flavor of the figs and the density of the white wood. The memory of a Greek summer at Mount Pelion where, to get to the sea, there was a natural grove of wild sun-soaked fig trees to cross. The iconic oval label on the bottle is deeply rooted in diptyque's story. The thread of inspiration runs from ancient Rome to the fabric designs created during the early days of the diptyque adventure.

In the heat of a Greek summer, "to get to the sea," recalls Yves, "you had to walk through a natural orchard of wild fig trees." Returning from Paris, Desmond brought back a few leaves of these trees in a little box. Years later, the leaves had lost none of their fragrance. Philosykos, which in Greek means "friend of the fig tree," is an ode to the entire tree: the green, pungent freshness of the leaves, the wood warmed in the sun, the milky flavor of the fruit.
