Eau des Sens by Diptyque is built almost entirely around bitter orange, from zesty peel to soft blossom. Orange blossom softens the sharper citrus at the top, and juniper adds a green, slightly bitter edge that keeps it from turning sweet. There is no heavy heart or base to sink into here; it stays bright and citrus-led from start to finish. Released in 2016, it works for men and women alike and suits anyone who wants a clean, uncomplicated citrus for warm weather. Voters wear it in spring and summer, by day. The vote lands on moderate for both longevity and sillage, so it sits close and asks for the odd top-up. A 3ml decant is an easy way to try it before summer arrives properly.

The community verdict
Bright and fresh, Eau des Sens pairs bitter orange with orange blossom and juniper. Most find its wear and projection moderate; the next views are that it fades fairly soon and stays close to the skin. It fits summer daytime best, and spring works too if you prefer a lighter citrus floral.

Start with Philosykos, a green, woody scent with a bright, fresh opening. Tam Dao is creamy wood with a gentle spice. Do Son takes flowers somewhere light and powdery. Every one on this page is unisex, so wear whichever mood suits you.
