The perfumer of L'eau de L'eau is Olivier Pescheux. If you've tried L'eau and found it a bit much, you might find L'eau de L'eau more to your liking or speed. It's a go-to favorite of mine and its relation to L'eau de L'eau is unmistakable, yet L'eau de L'eau is very much its own fragrance as well, and each comes in handy for different moods. It's a wondrous fragrance - one you don't miss - and still in production, though harder to find at stores which carry Diptyque. I first wore it at a film festival in Philadelphia, shocking my festival-appointed escort as I stepped into the car. The patchouli is hard to put a finger on, in case patchouli frightens you. Ginger, lavender, pimento and geranium give the scent a piquancy its inspiration didn't have, but all are held in balance to the rose. This makes the clove a little less startling, and the overall fragrance that much richer and deeper. The spice in the eau de toilette is still there, but the rose has been boosted, bringing L'eau de L'eau closer to its inspiration, the wonderful L'eau. When you sprayed on the cologne it was like puncturing an orange rind with a clove bud. There were things I liked about it - its brightness, its overload of spice - that the eau de toilette has adjusted. The cologne version was punchier and didn't last all too poorly itself. It isn't at all a skin scent (also, for me, a dread descriptor) and it doesn't race its way off the radar before you have time to register it. L'eau de L'eau lasts well for a "cologne", and though it smells cologne-like in general effect, there are significant twists and tweaks. I pretty scrupulously avoid one act colognes, of which there are too many, and the recent craze for all things "L'eau de" have made my trips to the department store even more infrequent than they'd already become. Volatility is fine with me as long as something enters left stage for a second and hopefully a third act. This is effervescence done in a way I can get behind. It's an unusual take on cologne, spicy yet fresh, tart without a wince. Both are wonderful - the addition of immortelle to Oyedo is a revelation - but L'eau de L'eau distinguishes itself for me through its combination of bitter zest and clove. My favorites are L'eau de Hesperides and L'eau de L'eau, both of which are reinterpretations, or variations, of earlier Diptyque releases (Oyedo and the line's flagship fragrance, L'eau, respectively). Turns out that was a mistake, because even in their cologne concentrations these scents were largely fantastic. It wasn't a memorable experience, and I dutifully ignored all subsequent releases. I must have smelled the cologne versions when they first started releasing them however, until recently, I think the last one I'd paid any attention to was L'eau de Tarocco. Previously colognes, these now became eau de toilette, with better lasting power and slightly different behaviors on the skin.
