Another lemmable item from Diptyque's La Droguerie collection: the Odor-Removing Candle. "The odor-removing candle is based on a technology that targets and eliminates the molecules responsible for unpleasant odors. It replaces those with green and aromatic combinations of basil, mint and tomato leaf. A window onto a fresh and colorful vegetable garden." 190g for $70 at Nordstrom.
Diptyque holiday collection 2021
Diptyque’s holiday collection for 2021 is out. We start with “…a trio of limited edition scented candles with gold-coloured lids, decorations in actual gold paint and colours that call to mind malachite, lapis lazuli and cornelian. Each of the three scents is a unique interpretation of a winter classic, and hence the ideal accompaniment for the holiday season: Flocon, an olfactory transcription of snowfall, with light, velvety notes of white musks blended with those of mimosa, a winter flower; Biscuit, with the spicy flavours of festive end-of-year desserts enhanced by the density of patchouli; and Sapin [see close up below], the fragrant freshness of mountain pines intensified by the woody notes of an open fire.” The 190g candle with gold lid is $78; the 70g votive is $42 (or a boxed set of 3 is $126)…
The daily lemming
From Diptyque's upcoming Grand Tour collection, the Paris candle. "The fragrance, developed by Olivia Giacobetti, evokes that of a stroll along the quays of the Seine – the weeping willows lining its banks, the polished wood scents of the antique stores along with those of the Parisian cobblestones and of the pages of antiquarian books. Inspired by an old display stand for diptyque candles, the sculpted black wood lid is a nod to the history of the Maison, concluding this initial olfactory, cultural and historic stopover."
