Description
Diptyque is a French fragrance brand founded in 1961 by three artists—Yves Coueslant, Desmond Knox-Leet, and Christiane Gautrot. Both its fragrances and its designs are original and evocative, making Diptyque one of the most recognizable brands straddling the niche and luxury markets.
In the Publisher’s note for this issue, Magazine B founder Suyong Joh mused:
“In fact, people in the fragrance and cosmetics industry often say that the manufacturing of their products is relatively easier than manufacturing products in other industries. When people choose from a range of products with the same function, however, the cheapest one isn’t always the one that gets picked. I believe this is because people don’t want to just get by—somewhere deep in their minds, they want their lives to be happier and more meaningful. I hope that this issue is an opportunity for us to consider the meaning of the interest people have in products like perfume that are not necessities for survival. Perhaps if we discover why we love those sorts of brands, we’ll also gain some insight into the reasons why we live.”
