System prompt

Diptyque Paris is a premium luxury fragrance e-commerce site defined by its restrained, editorial approach. The design relies on a strict monochrome UI (pure black #000000 and white #FFFFFF) to let rich, naturalistic product photography carry the emotional weight. Typography is a careful balance between a transitional-serif for elegant display headlines and a clean geometric-sans (like Apercu) for functional body and navigation text, maintaining a 14px base for readability. Layouts are expansive, utilizing full-bleed imagery and generous whitespace to create a gallery-like feel. Key critical donts include: never use rounded corners on buttons or cards, avoid any bright accent colors that compete with the photography, and never clutter the interface with dense text blocks or heavy drop shadows. The overall system must preserve a sense of quiet luxury and refined restraint.
