Diptyque Tam Dao Eau de Toilette 50ml Spray is the iconic 2003 unisex fragrance from celebrated French niche perfume house Diptyque. Composed by Daniel Moliere, Tam Dao is a beloved sandalwood-led unisex signature inspired by the Tam Đảo mountain region of Vietnam — a meditative, atmospheric niche-perfumery classic.
About Diptyque
Diptyque is the celebrated French niche perfume house founded in 1961 in Paris on Boulevard Saint-Germain by Christiane Gautrot, Desmond Knox-Leet and Yves Coueslant. Originally a designer boutique, the maison launched its first scented candle in 1963 and has since become one of the most respected names in niche perfumery and home fragrance.
Fragrance profile (Tam Dao)
- Top: Italian cypress, Bulgarian rose, myrtle
- Heart: Sandalwood, cedar
- Base: Sandalwood, white musk, amber
Character
Tam Dao opens with a fresh, slightly woody burst of Italian cypress and Bulgarian rose softened by myrtle. The heart introduces the celebrated centrepiece — creamy, meditative sandalwood paired with cedar — for a sumptuous, atmospheric character. The drydown rests on a sumptuous base of sandalwood, white musk and amber. The result is one of the most beloved sandalwood-led unisex signatures in modern niche perfumery — meditative, atmospheric and unmistakably Diptyque.
Who it's for
This 50ml eau de toilette is for niche-perfumery enthusiasts and lovers of sandalwood-led unisex compositions. Particularly well-suited to those who love meditative, atmospheric Diptyque perfumery.
