Diptyque

Our “Planet” rating evaluates brands based on the environmental policies in their supply chains, from carbon emissions to wastewater, ingredients' impacts, product circularity, and more. Here we rate Diptyque “Not Good Enough”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• There’s no evidence it uses any lower-impact ingredients.
• There’s no evidence it’s taking actions to protect biodiversity in its supply chain.
• Its product packaging is recyclable.
• It publishes a policy to assess the biodegradability and environmental toxicity of some of its ingredients and formulas.
• It could be using palm oil, but it has not disclosed any information regarding responsible sourcing that mitigates environmental impacts.

Workers’ rights are central to our “People” rating, which assesses brands’ policies and practices on everything from child labour to living wages and gender equality. Here we rate Diptyque “Not Good Enough”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• Its final production stage happens in France, a medium country for labour abuse.
• There’s no evidence it provides financial security to its suppliers, which can result in poor working conditions and wages.
• There’s no evidence it supports diversity and inclusion in its supply chain.
• It has an internal grievance mechanism for workers to report concerns like harassment and unpaid wages, but the process isn’t anonymous.
• There’s no evidence it has a Code of Conduct.
• There’s no evidence it ensures workers are paid living wages in its supply chain.

Note that the "People" rating in Good On You’s methodology is defined by labour rights and does not consider consumer health.

Brands’ animal welfare policies and, where applicable, how well they trace their animal-derived products, are the focus of our “Animals” rating. Here we rate Diptyque “Not Good Enough”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• It uses ingredients derived from insects (eg byproducts of the bee, snail and/or silk industries), but no other animal substances.
• It does not have a certification, policy, or statement against the use of animal testing in its supply chains.

Based on all the publicly available information we’ve reviewed, we rate Diptyque “Not Good Enough” overall.
