World-renowned perfume house, diptyque, will be opening their stand-alone store in Singapore soon at Ngee Ann City.

The first two collaborated designing fabrics and wallpaper for Liberty and Sanderson. They were joined by the third in 1961 and opened a shop to display their designs. Yves became the administrator and consultant; Desmond and Christiane were the artistic soul.
