French fragrance house Diptyque has opened its newest boutique at Greenbelt 5, Makati, designed to reflect the brand’s deep ties to scent, art, and craftsmanship. More than a retail space, the boutique offers an immersive experience where each detail is curated to engage the senses.

Architectural elements blend global influences. A hand-painted frieze inspired by colonial and Spanish design lines the cornice, while classic Haussmann-style moldings are paired with a vintage oak table and an Asian Art Deco rug. In the skincare section, a curved plaster panel adorned with native floral motifs sets a calming tone. Deeper inside, a carved arch featuring the Waling-Waling—a rare orchid revered by the Bagobo people—pays tribute to local culture and adds symbolic depth to the interior.

Every corner of the boutique bridges aesthetic elegance with narrative detail, making it not just a destination for fragrance lovers but a showcase of cultural and sensory storytelling. Whether you’re shopping or simply exploring, Diptyque’s Greenbelt store offers a space where heritage and scent converge.
