<\/span><\/h3>\nStarting with my personal favorite, which is the Doppio Ajour.<\/p>\n
It’s called Doppio Ajour because doppio means double in Italian. Both the top of the top sheet and the pillowcases feature double open hemstitch, which is a signature for Frette.<\/p>\n
The thread count is anywhere from 300 to 500.<\/p>\n
Remember, thread count is not the deciding factor when it comes to sheet quality. It’s more about, among other things, the length of the fibers.<\/p>\n
Both of these sheet sets are made from extra-long staple pure cotton. That’s leaving them feeling super soft. It’s also going to boost their durability as well.<\/p>\n
The sateen set I’ve got is in Cliff Grey, there are other colors available. It’s feeling so silky smooth to the touch. Sateen woven sheets do tend to be silkier in feel. These are definitely no exception. These really have a very luxuriously buttery-smooth hand feel.<\/p>\n
Also, it does have this lustrous sheen, which is adding to the luxury aesthetic of it. It’s making you feel like you’re in your own five-star hotel bed.<\/p>\n
Each set, both the percale woven and the sateen woven set, comes with one fitted sheet, one top sheet, and two pillowcases.<\/p>\n
The fitted sheet for the sateen woven set is able to fit mattresses up to 15 inches deep. It’s able to fit taller, more luxurious mattresses.<\/p>\n
The percale set is also made from extra-long staple pure cotton. It’s feeling super soft and also very durable. As soon as I took it out of the package, I noticed how super crisp they feel.<\/p>\n
As we know, percale woven sheets do tend to offer that crisp, cool hand feel. These are exceptionally crisp. They’re blending this perfect balance between crispness and softness.<\/p>\n
The pillowcase has a little bit of a different look in the percale set. It opens on the end and has this double embroidered border and also has the company’s logo stitched. Feeling very crisp, very cool, light, and breathable.<\/p>\n
The sateen set comes with a pillowcase that might even be one of my favorite parts about the set. It’s super unique. It has double open hemstitch, which is signature for the brand.<\/p>\n
Then it has a very discrete opening in the back on the side. It’s a little bit hidden, took me a second to figure out where it was. I just think this is a really charming aesthetic.<\/p>\n
Back to the percale set.<\/p>\n
The thread count is anywhere between 200 and 240, feeling super light and breathable.<\/p>\n
My first impressions of each set is that they are feeling very luxurious, which is what I was expecting, but really exceeding my expectations. They’re both so soft.<\/p>\n
The sateen in this silky, lustrous way. The percale in this crisp, luxury hotel way.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
<\/span>Feel<\/span><\/h3>\nOf course, the feel of each sheet set is going to be different because of their different weave styles.<\/p>\n
Starting with the percale, which I’m using for the fitted sheet, I can tell that this extra-long staple cotton feels very durable.<\/p>\n
I’ve been testing sheets long enough to, just by feeling them, be able to tell if they’re going to last you for a good long while. These do feel as durable as they feel soft. They do feel so soft.<\/p>\n
I can’t stop rubbing my hands all over the material. You are even able to hear that they’re bringing this real hotel style crispness to it. This percale really does make you feel like you’re in your own luxury hotel room.<\/p>\n
The sateen set is going to be more of the silky-smooth feel. Both of them are soft but in different ways. The percale is lighter. It’s going to be more breathable, probably more cooling.<\/p>\n
The sateen lies heavier on the body. Sateen woven sheets do tend to be a bit thicker and lie heavier on the body. I’d say these are no exception.<\/p>\n
Because of that, they’re offering this elegant, body-hugging drape that many people consider to be a basis of appeal for sateen sheets, myself included. It silhouettes your shape in this pretty and elegant way.<\/p>\n
As I said, the fitted sheet is able to accommodate mattresses up to 15 inches deep. I think that the fitted sheet could probably stretch to fit mattresses even deeper than that.<\/p>\n
Those of you with taller, luxuriously deep mattresses, you might like to know that you’ll probably be compatible with either of these sets.<\/p>\n
I will say that both sets are a little wrinkly. That’s definitely to be expected from percale. Percale, across the board, tends to be a little more prone to wrinkles. The sateen is a little bit less wrinkly, but the wrinkles are certainly not detracting from the comfort.<\/p>\n
I’m just loving rolling around in these sheets. They offer this luxuriously soft feel. Like I said, it’s making me feel like I’m in my own five-star hotel bedroom.<\/p>\n
