Sweetish and very slightly earthy iris
The Volutes is not known to many, which is a real shame.
Diptyque is a really fine house with one or two treasures. Volutes, for example, is one of these unknown treasures.
Here we have a sweet and powdery fragrance with a fine spiciness, a great iris and something subtle but pleasantly earthy.
For me, the fragrance starts with a cinnamon accord which is accompanied by a little honey and a great iris. The fragrance also has a powdery effect at the beginning.
After a relatively short time, I also immediately noticed something resinous and earthy. This gives the fragrance a few rough edges.
Afterwards, this impression was gone again, then back again, etc.
In other words, this earthy touch was there from time to time and I found it quite exciting.
Towards the end, the fragrance becomes softer and more and more powdery.
The performance is fine.
It is definitely not a beast, but not a weakling either.
Volutes by Diptyque is therefore a successful fragrance that, in my opinion, gets too little attention.
