An entire fig tree, vibrant under the Mediterranean sun — from its foliage to its wood.
Fig leaf, fig milk, fig wood — green, milky, sun-drenched.
Philosykos is one of Diptyque's most iconic fragrances — and one of the most unique in contemporary niche perfumery. Created by Olivia Giacobetti, it captures something impossible to simplify: not just a fig note, but the entire fig tree — the dry, slightly pungent greenness of its leaves in the sun, the milky, slightly sweet softness of its ripe fruit, the dry, slightly resinous depth of its wood. As a perfumed gel, this composition becomes part of the most daily ritual with unexpected intensity and precision.
The crystalline gel transforms under water into a light and airy lather — coco-glucoside and shea butter provide softness and lightness, glycerin moisturizes, and vitamin E protects. The fig leaf opens with a green, slightly pungent and subtly vegetal freshness — immediately distinctive. Fig milk brings a creamy and slightly sweet softness to the heart, remarkably natural. And fig wood anchors the composition in the base with a dry and slightly resinous depth — a vegetal and sunny sillage that subtly lingers on the skin after rinsing, like a day in the Mediterranean.
Philosykos in gel form is for those who want their shower to be an immersion — into a Greek fig tree, under the July sun.

A word from Maison Diaphane
A vibrant and sunny fig tree, for fresh and naturally elegant skin. Philosykos is perhaps Olivia Giacobetti's most successful composition for Diptyque — a complete, precise, immediately recognizable fig tree. As a perfumed gel, it is particularly well rendered: the green leaf under water, the milk upon rinsing, the wood on the skin. A three-act immersion.

Diptyque Philosykos perfumed gel is a perfumed body and hand wash gel in 200 ml — fig leaf at the top, fig milk at the heart, fig wood at the base. Composition by Olivia Giacobetti. Available at Maison Diaphane, official retailer. Free delivery from €100 (in France).
What is Philosykos?
Philosykos means "friend of the fig tree" in Greek. It is one of Diptyque's most famous compositions, created by Olivia Giacobetti in 1996. It captures the fig tree in three simultaneous dimensions: the leaf (green, dry, slightly pungent), the fruit (milky, sweet, slightly sugary), the wood (dry, slightly resinous, deep). A complete fig tree, not an isolated note.
Is the gel true to the Philosykos fragrance?
Yes — the higher fragrance concentration compared to a classic gel allows for a faithful olfactory reproduction of the perfume's signature. This is precisely the intention of Diptyque's perfumed gel: to extend the world of the bottle into the skincare ritual.
For which season?
Mainly spring and summer — the vegetal greenness and milky freshness blossom with warmth and light. But the woody depth of the base makes it a year-round gel for fig tree lovers.
Can it be paired with Philosykos perfume?
Yes — this is the ideal ritual. The gel prepares the skin with the Philosykos signature in the shower. The Eau de Toilette or Eau de Parfum then takes over for a more intense and lasting trail. Both share the same composition and reinforce each other.
