Ray Bradbury said that in books there are only two smells: the new (good) and the used (better). With Diptyque’s new venture in L’Eau Papier (LP), I feel the same: it is an experience for those who buy physical books, opening them in the shop, or visit antique stores and smile at those woody and powdery aromas. I confess that when I saw the olfactory pyramid I thought this creation’s nose had a very clear idea, as there are few notes and apart from sesame nothing caught my attention; I saw it would be hard to surprise me. But simplicity is not the absence of difficulty, it is the art of ordering the difficult, and that Don Fabrice Pellegrin has achieved with NOTA 10. How beautiful it is! I feel the transition from top to heart is sequenced but short, to quickly present a background of toasted sesame, a romantic freshness from the Mimosa and musks that maintain the sensation of PAGE AFTER PAGE OF BOOK. It is not a Beast Mode bomb, it wants to be there for whoever wants to feel it, like an elegant and modest guest at a party. I see this spring as the perfect season for this LP, with a longevity of 6 to 7 hours and a projection of half a metre. It is personal, of short distances, but you will feel it if we take a trail of air. In short, a good and original proposal from this house, among my favourites. 👏👏👏 Greetings!

How beautifully you speak, @Boticario13. Almost, almost I can smell the perfume while reading. How much I want to smell it for real, you’ve left me wanting!!!! Thank you.
A stifled, woody whisper. I rushed to try it after @Boticario13’s review and it did not disappoint. It opens with a delicate floral burst where white musk blends with romantic mimosa and valley lily, adding creaminess and a subtle powdery gourmand note. As it dries, it evolves into a faint wood with a masculine nuance, like the fine stroke of a cedar fountain pen on paper, subtle and elegant. Ideal for short distances, perfect for spring, although its versatility allows for almost any use.

I love it! A clean, classy scent that lasts. It’s one of my favourite Diptyque perfumes after Fleur de Peau.
An abstract synthetic musk that smells of burning paper. It has a floral touch which, mixed with the musk, recalls precisely the moment you light a sheet. It is a fragrance prime of clean, crisp synthetic formulas, almost artificial intelligence: Gypsy Water, Bibliothèque, Swim, Not a Perfume… Papier is a friend to all. For lovers of cleanliness, homogeneity, and special synthetic scents. This warm cleanliness brings to mind the book-burning scene from Fahrenheit 451.
I tried this perfume yesterday; it was a gift from my 11-year-old son. (Of course, Dad paid) but my son chose it… He told me that when he smelled it, it reminded him of one I have, ‘Bal d’Afrique by Byredo’. And although it’s not exactly the same scent, it IS from the same clean, woody, and fresh family. My son was thrilled with it… It’s very wearable; it’s one of those perfumes I think I’ll only wear with my white shirts! 😂😂😂😂 I don’t know, but I associate L’Eau Papier with white shirts! Some colourful jeans and flats 🥰😂

A delightful fragrance, a touch of nostalgia, and it conveys a lot of calm and well-being. I hope they launch a perfume version, body cream, hand lotion, and even butter if necessary, because it’s truly a delight. My perfume account on IG: @chabelino5
A poem. It smells of calm and tranquility. If we are strict, it smells of an old book—not the paper itself, but the book with its cover, pencil notes, markers, and so on. Librarians will understand that it smells of a freshly restored old book. It smells like a library. Those who are not book fanatics might say it smells of certain Asian pastries, like mochi, due to the rice steam note. It is a unique scent, unlike anything I know. I recommend trying it before buying.
A poem. It’s a scent of calm. I would describe it exactly like that. It smells of tranquility. If we get strict, we could say it smells of an old book, but not the paper itself, but the old book with its cover, pencil notes, highlighters, etc. Librarians would understand if I said it smells of a freshly restored old book. It smells of a library. Those who aren’t book fanatics might say it also smells of certain Asian desserts to an extent, something like mochi, due to the rice steam note. It’s a unique scent. It doesn’t resemble any perfume I know. I recommend trying it before buying.
The most delicious perfume for daily wear; my wife and I absolutely love it. I see it’s heavily marketed towards women, but believe me, as a man, it can also be worn and works very well for daily use. I think this brand needs more hype because it has too many good unisex perfumes.

It’s a skin scent, a scent of a person who smells this way because it’s their natural essence. It’s very personal; it seems as though you aren’t wearing perfume and just smell good because your skin is spectacular. It doesn’t have much sillage, but the scent is worth it, and you notice bursts that envelop you all day. If you don’t like being suffocated by perfumes, this is yours, because you feel it but it’s not overwhelming. As for the paper scent, well, with some imagination it might remind you of paper, but this is more marketing; it’s more of a skin scent but improved. Totally unisex. I suspect they will release a Parfum version and I’ll wait to see if they improve the performance, as I’m a fan of potent perfumes. It’s perfect for everyday wear and as a signature. Besides, you won’t smell the same as anyone else. I want it, I need it.
I wanted a fragrance to replace my daily A Drop d’Issey for autumn/winter, and I’ve ended up loving it even more. The musk gives it that creamy, warm touch. It’s versatile, intimate, and cosy. I fully captured the rice steam scent. The only drawback is that it lasts very little; in two months, I’ve used up almost half a bottle because I apply it generously and carry the mini in my bag to reapply. Now that they’ve released new formats, the Hair Mist is on my radar; it’s a pity they haven’t done an EDP yet.
Musk, mimosa, and woods are the main notes; this perfume is a tribute to calm and well-being. Lemon gives it a green, invigorating touch, while lavender adds an elegant and versatile air. It’s special; you’ll like it more if you’re a lover of discovering memorable fragrances rather than following current commercial trends or gourmand perfumes that have been so overhyped lately. It’s an olfactory experience. It radiates good vibes, and people will recognise you if you make it your signature. I absolutely love it.
Musks, mimosa, and woods are the predominant notes, an ode to calm and well-being. Lemon gives it the ‘green’ and stimulating part, while lavender adds an elegant, versatile, and unisex touch. It is special; you will like it more if you are a lover of discovering memorable perfumes rather than following commercial trends or highly hyped gourmand scents. It is an olfactory experience. It transmits good vibes, and people will recognise you if you make it your signature. I like it, and I like it a lot.
I tried it today, and it couldn’t be more boring and flat. What does this perfume have to be number 4 on the best of the year list? We’ve lost our minds. Do they no longer value complex perfumes? They seem to want to charge 300 euros for a simple musk. I thought perfumery couldn’t get worse, creating scents that don’t last and are all vanilla without diversity. It seems they are looking for basic, linear perfumes and charging 500 euros to make them seem worthy. You can get the exact same thing at Zara for 20 (Gleam of the Moon), yet you vote for this one that they charge three hundred for; it’s ridiculous. Same with Burberry Goddess; it smells good but is basic vanilla and comes out number 1. It’s laughable, pathetic, and a shame for perfumers who actually innovate. If you can correct the Fragrantica survey, these results are creating bad trends.
I bought this blindly based on reviews. While I was hoping for something musky and clean, the reality was different. It’s not a bad scent: it’s fresh, light, and unobtrusive. At first, for those five minutes, I thought of D&G’s Light Blue with that luminous vibe. But for the price, I think it’s overrated. The bottle is stunning and worthy of display, but it lacks originality. The word ‘Papier’ misled me; I was expecting an old library or rice aroma, but there was none. It’s a clever marketing trick. I don’t want to sound harsh, as it has strong points: it lasts well and doesn’t overpower. However, in essence, it smells of mimosa and fresh notes, nothing more. It doesn’t deliver on its promise, which is disappointing.
I tried the sample and liked it, so I ordered the large bottle for Christmas. It was a surprise upon spraying: I didn’t like it much at first. It smelled like eraser rubber or damp paper, but once it dried, it changed into a delight. It’s one of those perfumes to make you feel good and comfortable. It smells like a rainy day walking through the city and stepping into a bookshop. I use it often after a shower, for the office, or when I want something neutral but that smells wonderful. Diptyque doesn’t do anything wrong; all their perfumes are incredibly wonderful.
If you’re looking for something dark or transgressive, this isn’t your perfume. Those who enjoy soft, clean, and delicate scents will adore it. It’s not complex, but it carries the Diptyque seal that guarantees quality. It’s delicate, subtly soapy, and lightly talc-like with a sweet touch—not edible or gourmand, but floral. If we let the name guide us, we might imagine printed paper, not newspaper, but old encyclopaedias or modern bookshops where woods, paper, and ink blend with a subtle cleanser. All like a cotton cloud. Beyond pareidolias, it smells like baby cologne. Subtle and delicate. Unisex, perfect for spring and summer, daytime, for the office or hospital. Ideal for casual and personal use. It’s in the same league as Juliette Has a Gun’s Anyway or Le Labo’s Another 13. It enters the realm of Prada’s Infusions or Silver Musk. As with all these musks, you must test on skin, as some can smell like baby vomit, not due to pH, but from sweat or hydration.
If you own BDK’s 312 Saint-Honoré, you don’t need the Diptyque version; they smell practically identical. The 312 is a blend of L’eau Papier and Another 13. The only difference is that Le Labo’s version has tremendous longevity.
It’s exquisite, light, soft, delicate… it’s a proper perfume. Ignore those who belittle it for being simple (unless you’re also a die-hard complex scent enthusiast, which is perfectly fine). Achieving something so simple yet well-crafted is commendable. It’s not a blend of raw materials nor does it have a wild evolution; it’s exactly what it is, and that’s enough. It’s for when you feel good and at peace, walking calmly without noise in your head. In such a noisy world, that idea calms me.
Clean and fresh, reminiscent of baby colognes. Its simplicity is what makes it beautiful. I expected a molecular, musky scent, but here there’s a distinct aromatic touch.
The opening reminds me hugely of sikhye, which I adore. As it oxidises, the rice and sesame notes fade, leaving a more woody and masculine trail, which is curious. It’s a second-skin fragrance.
MEGA fantastic.
I bought a decant seeking something soft, poetic, and light. I was hoping to detect the rice steam, but I smell neither rice nor mimosa (nor sesame, despite what Diptyque claims). What I notice is sea salt, a touch of lemon, and a hint of pink pepper. It’s pleasant, very linear and intimate. It lasts for hours but needs to be worn close to the skin. It’s lovely, though I expected more complexity. I don’t think I’ll buy the full bottle. EDIT: It has a mental cleansing effect. I use it to feel clear and calm. I still notice the saltiness, but in my room, it smells steamy and sweet as others describe.
It bears a striking resemblance to BDK’s 312 Saint-Honoré. In fact, BDK’s scent owes more to this one, as L’Eau Papier was created first. If you own one, the other becomes redundant.
Smells like Nenuco cologne with a hint of pepper, and although it sounds odd, I absolutely love it.
