The spirit of a city in a candle
True to its artistic heritage, Diptyque captures the spirit of each city in a candle through a subtle combination of fragrances and exclusive designs. Each candle’s unique scent and remarkable design make it a work of art and a collector’s treasure.

Diptyque draws inspiration from architectural details and iconic landmarks to create scented candles that are invitations to travel. The best-selling Paris candle’s scent evokes Parisian chic with a cypress accord and lavender notes. The London candle’s heliotrope, lilac and hyacinth notes transport you to the iconic Columbia Road Flower Market. Each candle is a poetic interpretation of its city, a distinctive Diptyque vision that highlights its most captivating aspects.

A sensory journey with Diptyque
Diptyque's heritage is deeply rooted in its founders’ travels and curiosity. This passion is fully expressed in the City Candles collection. Each scented candle tells an olfactory story allowing you to experience their unique atmospheres and cultural richness from the comfort of your own home. Each candle is a tribute to the city's character, encapsulating its spirit in a carefully crafted, elegant scent.

Twelve Inspiring Cities
The journey begins in Europe with the secret notes of strolling down the streets of Paris, winding your way around London’s Columbia Road Flower Market, exploring the boulevards of Berlin and soaking up the sun-drenched balconies of Milan. Then it’s off to America: a speakeasy on a dizzy New York night, golden stretches of sand in cloudless Miami and the gardens of Beverly Hills, lined with palm trees.

Finally, the spotlight falls on Asia: Beijing, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Tokyo and Seoul. Five candles inspired by imperial temples, rock gardens, towering skyscrapers and more.

Each one a work of art, the City Candles beckon for a beautiful getaway across the world. The 12 olfactory destinations in this fleeting collection reveal the essence of 12 iconic and inspiring cities for a unique, sophisticated escape.
