Tempo
Picture a pencil shaving, sharpened in a library. That is the first ten seconds of Diptyque Tempo.

How it moves
You meet bergamot, violet leaf and mate at the door. By the half hour it has become patchouli and violet. Last to go: Tonka Bean, musk and cedarwood.
Who made it
Fabrice Pellegrin composed it in 2018, for Diptyque in France. Diptyque's patchouli, built with violet and bergamot to keep the material bright rather than head-shop heavy.
