Ofrésia is a vivid, hyper-realistic interpretation of a flower garden just after a rainstorm. Rather than focusing solely on a sugary petal scent, perfumer Olivia Giacobetti captures the entire plant....
The fragrance is widely celebrated for its "botanical realism," with enthusiasts noting it captures the roots, stems, and earth of the freesia plant rather than just a generic floral extract.
Performance is a common point of discussion; like many Diptyque scents, it is considered light and inoffensive, with moderate longevity that typically lasts through a standard morning or afternoon but may require reapplication for evening use.
It is frequently compared to more refined, niche green florals, with users noting it is much drier and more "rain-grey" than the typical sweet or "prissy" freesia scents found in mass-market body mists.
The community generally views this as a high-value entry for those who want a "skin-first" or "natural-smelling" signature scent that works well in professional and casual daytime settings.
While most find it refreshing and simple, a small group of users finds the combination of pepper and green notes slightly sharp or "musty" in the initial opening.
