Tam Dao

★★★★☆Editorial rating 4.3/5 · How we rateEau de Parfum · 75 ml

Tam Dao by Diptyque is all about dry woods and refined, earthy depth. Cypress and rosewood in the opening; sandalwood and cedar at the heart; amber and musk in the base. With medium sillage and 7–9 h longevity, it shines best in the evening and in winter. Understated with attitude: refined, never loud.
