Kyoto
Kyoto by Diptyque
Launch Year: 2021
Perfumer: Alexandra Carlin
Concentration: Eau de Toilette
Fragrance Profile:
Kyoto opens with a vivid and slightly tart Turkish rose, immediately bold and unconventional. The composition quickly introduces incense, adding a dry, lemony, and subtly smoky contrast. The heart develops a distinctive green and earthy facet, often reminiscent of beetroot or damp vegetation, giving the fragrance a unique vegetal texture. As it dries down, vetiver anchors the scent with smoky, rooty, and woody depth, creating a serene, meditative, and almost temple-like atmosphere.
Performance:
Moderate longevity with soft to moderate projection. It becomes more intimate over time, settling into a calm, earthy trail that remains close to the skin.
Ideal For:
Best suited for spring and fall, daytime wear, or reflective settings. Ideal for those who appreciate artistic, green, and unconventional rose fragrances with an earthy, introspective character.
