Diptyque

Inspired by the magic of the flame, Diptyque’s candle collection for the holidays promises to light up any parties and gatherings. With flame as the central motif, the collection takes on its poetic definition from the Encyclopédie des Lumières in 1751, creating not only the perfect symbolic return to the brand’s roots, but also a beautiful homage to the 60th anniversary of its iconic candle.

Three new limited edition classic candles are available here, each dressed in coloured, black, and golden flames and handpicked for being so evocative of wintertime. Sapin, for example, takes cues from the pine tree to bring the fresh outdoors into the home, while Délice celebrates all of Christmas’ sweetest moments with its dried fruit and vanilla accords. For an ambience that’s soft, warm, and akin to a great big hug, there’s Coton, which marries tonka bean and cotton to create a heartwarming fragrance that’s great for intimate moments with loved ones.
