Diptyque Graphic Collection

DIPTYQUE_GRAPHIC_MAIN.jpg

We are pretty sure we don't have to persuade you to fall in love with Diptyque. With candle scents (and actual scents) for every single taste, they are a foolproofproduct and a delicious indulgence, when we feel we've deserved an extra-super-special treat. (If you don't know, they also make sublime skincare and bodycare, with the lusciousest of textures and –no surprises here –the most delectable of smells.)

We have friends who have vast arrays of Diptyque candles –sometimes featuring the same scent, sometimes an armoury of different smells for different moods. (That's what we have ourselves.) But if you're looking for a gift for a Diptyque-lover –er, this could possibly be yourself –you will want to know that Diptyque have launched some of their most-loved products in a new almost hypnotic, 'graphic' livery, to celebrate their 60th birthday.

We have a friend who particularly loves Baies, and (please look away now, if you know who you are –and we think you may) we bought her the black-and-white-decorated candle for a recent birthday –and we know it's going to look seriously eye-catching on her coffee table. The design is loosely based on Diptyque's famous 'oval' logo, but the result is very chic and contemporary. The candles are available in the aforementioned Baies, Roses, Figuier and Tubéreuse –any of which could be repurposed as a striking posy vase, when it's flickered its last.

Just don't dither –these are already sold out on Diptyque's website, and will no doubt fly from elsewhere...
