Diptyque has signed a 10-year lease for a new headquarters located in Manhattan. The company will move its operations to the 17th floor of 16 East 34th Street in early 2027.
Why it matters
This move represents a significant expansion for the fragrance brand as it more than doubles its current office footprint in New York City. The relocation positions Diptyque in the Murray Hill area of Midtown South.
The new headquarters occupies the entire 17th floor of a 22-story building that features 376,000 square feet of total space. Diptyque is relocating from its existing office at 240-246 West 35th Street.
The players

The details
The lease agreement for the new space will span a decade, allowing the firm to scale its operations within the city. George Comfort & Sons and Wohio Holding Inc. own the property at 16 East 34th Street, which serves as the site for this expansion.
Timeline
Diptyque will move into its new headquarters during the first quarter of 2027.
Culture Shift
The move reflects a broader trend of luxury firms securing larger, more centralized Manhattan headquarters to support long-term growth. This expansion signals a departure from smaller office layouts toward increased corporate real estate footprints in premium districts.
The relocation to 16 East 34th Street places a major corporate tenant in the Murray Hill area, potentially increasing foot traffic near the building. Local employees and visitors can expect shifts in the neighborhood's business landscape as the company settles in by 2027.
The takeaway
This office expansion allows Diptyque to accommodate a larger staff in the heart of Manhattan for the next decade. Businesses looking to grow in New York City often prioritize these long-term lease commitments to secure premium central office locations.
