   I’ve been wearing Ilio on and off for a few weeks now (2021). The heart is the best part for me: Prickly pear and Iris feel carefully balanced. Give it a little time and Prickly pear with Iris comes forward — smooth and well done. It projects politely for a couple of hours, then stays close and cosy. I can see this getting a lot of wear in my collection.

   For a 2021 release, Ilio deserves more attention than it gets. After about twenty minutes the heart settles into Prickly pear with Iris, which is where the fragrance really shines. The heart is the best part for me: Prickly pear and Iris feel carefully balanced. It performs better in warmer weather — in the heat it opens up nicely. I can see its quality, but it simply is not my style.

   I keep reaching for Ilio more than I expected to. After about twenty minutes the heart settles into Prickly pear with Iris, which is where the fragrance really shines. The heart is the best part for me: Prickly pear and Iris feel carefully balanced. On my skin the performance is reliable, not a beast but far from weak. I can see this getting a lot of wear in my collection.

   My first Diptyque experience was this one, Ilio (2021). The heart is the best part for me: Prickly pear and Iris feel carefully balanced. Give it a little time and Prickly pear with Iris comes forward — smooth and well done. It wears beautifully in the office; I can still catch it on my scarf at the end of the day. Worth sampling before committing to a bottle.

   I have owned Ilio for a while now and my opinion has only gotten stronger. Give it a little time and Prickly pear with Iris comes forward — smooth and well done. The heart is the best part for me: Prickly pear and Iris feel carefully balanced. Performance is consistent: comfortable sillage and several hours of wear on my skin. A very likeable composition that is easy to appreciate.

   Diptyque knows how to compose, and Ilio (2021) is proof. Give it a little time and Prickly pear with Iris comes forward — smooth and well done. After about twenty minutes the heart settles into Prickly pear with Iris, which is where the fragrance really shines. Projection stays close for the first hour, then becomes a soft, pleasant aura. The composition is well made but not for me.

   Everyone keeps talking about Ilio, so I finally gave it a proper test. The heart is the best part for me: Prickly pear and Iris feel carefully balanced. After about twenty minutes the heart settles into Prickly pear with Iris, which is where the fragrance really shines. I get about four to six hours before it turns into a skin scent. A very likeable composition that is easy to appreciate.

   A friend passed me a decant of Ilio (2021) and I wasn’t prepared for it. After about twenty minutes the heart settles into Prickly pear with Iris, which is where the fragrance really shines. Give it a little time and Prickly pear with Iris comes forward — smooth and well done. It lasts through a full workday on me, which is exactly what I want. I enjoy it when I wear it, yet I rarely think of reaching for it.

After about twenty minutes the heart settles into Prickly pear with Iris, which is where the fragrance really shines. Three sprays last me most of the day without ever becoming cloying. I reach for it often and always enjoy the wear.

    A decant of Ilio sat in my box for weeks before I finally wore it. Give it a little time and Prickly pear with Iris comes forward — smooth and well done.

Pleasant, though I would not call it essential.

Give it a little time and Prickly pear with Iris comes forward — smooth and well done. After a few hours it becomes a soft skin scent with a lovely trail.
