Diptyque Baies room spray

This one isn't quite related to make up but it's something I feel I should share with you all.

I purchased the Baies room spray by Diptyque today, and boy! it smells amazing! Normally I don't spend too much on things like candles and scents. Mainly because I am that person who buys them and then keeps them for display purposes only. But this one I made an exception. After months of hem and hawing, I decided to just buy it. The good news? I have no regrets!

Diptyque was founded in 1961, and produces amazing scented candles and fragrances. The name was inspired by the two windows flanking (diptychs) the front door of the original boutique at 34 Boulevard Saint Germain, Paris.

Diptyque

Initially I was quite skeptical, thinking it could be a waste of money. But I came home and gave my desk area a spray or two and so far it's still lingering. I'm guessing it tends to "cling" onto objects well? (so to speak)

I don't know how best to describe this scent, it's just a very fresh sweet smell. But I checked on their website and this is what they described it to be:
A bouquet of roses and blackcurrent leaves, a companion to diptyque eau de toilette, L'Ombre dans l'Eau.
Overall, I'm very happy with this purchase, and it looks fantastic on a table top!

Diptyque room spray retails for $60 (150ml)
