Moss absolute, cedar essence, matcha accord.

Not far from Kyoto, in a location conducive to meditation and contemplation, stands a temple with a garden containing one hundred and twenty rare and delicate varieties of moss.

Light the Temple des Mousses ("Moss Temple") candle and you’re granted access to the magic of a Japanese zen garden, transported deep into an unspoilt natural environment. A rare privilege.

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.

“Les Mondes de Diptyque” (“The Worlds of Diptyque”) is a collection that lets us 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. 

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.
