60 years after the first Diptyque candle, a new chapter is being written with the first scented candles for which the Maison also offers refills.

The collection “Les Mondes de Diptyque” (“The Worlds of Diptyque”) allows us to see and smell little-known places, adding a dash of extra soul to the mix. A saga in 5 volumes, each candle relating the history of the location it embodies in curls of fragrant smoke. Each candle opens a doorway to a different, faraway world. It s an opportunity to enjoy an interlude outside time itself, spent in exploration of beauty.

Not far from Kyoto, in the southern foothills of Mount Arashiyama, stands a Japanese temple and its Zen garden, whose 120 rare and delicate moss species flourish in the light and shade of the forest. Temple des Mousses (Moss Temple) captures the experience and beauty of this garden in an olfactory creation with woody accents of green moss, bark and lichen, and velvety notes of matcha evoking this astonishing carpet of vegetation. The serenity and hush of the site, so conducive to meditation and contemplation, are delicately rendered here. Light the Temple des Mousses (Moss Temple) candle and step into the magic of a Japanese Zen garden as you are transported into the midst of untouched nature. A rare privilege.

Each of these candles was conceived to last through multiple lifetimes, and can easily be refilled with your scent of choice – so the journey never ends.
