Fleur de Peau Diptyque 2018 Eau de Parfum

Some people love that light, clean musk at the dry-down. So-called white musk. I absolutely despise it. I sprayed it on my wrist at Nordstrom, and went about my shopping. For about 15 minutes, FdP was actually quite nice. Those pretty notes soon evaporated and left me with that horrid base. If the dry-down were a color, it would be the ugliest, dull, grayish beige you could imagine. If it were a texture, I would describe it as rubbery. Rubbery greige. I couldn't wait to get home and wash it off. I scrubbed like mad, and still it clung. I smelled it on my shower pouf for days.

I don't get the point of notes that completely disappear in a few minutes, with the dry-down as the only accord that lasts. Maybe one day I'll understand. If you dig this structure and this skin scent, you'll prolly love Fleur de Peau.
