Diptyque Eau de Minthé Eau de Parfum, 75ml at John Lewis & Partners

In Greek Mythology, fragrances are often born from a combination of romantic poetry and metamorphosis. Thus, mint's incomparable scent is said to come from the nymph Minthé, who was transformed into a fragrant plant by the god Hades.

Eau de Minthé was inspired by this myth, drawing on the scent of mint to reinvent an emblematic perfumery accord: fougere.

At the very heart of the composition, the aromatic freshness of mint enhances the lively floral notes of geranium while patchouli softens this duo with its profound depths.
