La Vallée du Temps, Rechargeable Scented Candle | Diptyque
Diptyque The Valley of Time Scented Candle Refillable
The Valley of Time is inspired by the tea ritual. A candle with the scent of white tea, mate, and jasmine.
Inspired by the Chinese city of Yin Zhen in Jiangxi province, the cradle of porcelain, the "white gold" that was once used as a currency, and also known for its famous white tea.
Participating in the Gong Fu Cha ceremony, which means "taking time for tea", consists of appreciating all the subtleties of this precious silver-leaf tea with a unique fragrance.
A candle that transports us to an ancient artisan workshop amidst green tea plantations.
White tea accord, mate, jasmine
Les Mondes de Diptyque, "The Worlds of Diptyque", is a collection of five candles, each one a story composed of the aromas of secret and wonderful corners, captivating places where nature and culture come together, to explore and discover as in a dream.
5 candles, 5 worlds, a saga in multiple volumes that will transport you to distant lands.
A candle to feel the beauty of a corner of the world. An object that manages to create an olfactory sanctuary in our home.
With its three overlapping glass ovals, inspired by the emblematic shape of the Maison, each candle is a monolith of color that encloses the soul of the place it embodies.
Its glass lid is decorated with the Maison's emblem, the incense burner; upon removing the
lid, Diptyque's address is revealed engraved on the edge of the candle jar. You can use the lid as a base for the candle.
Each candle tells a story and symbolizes the soul of a corner of the world... The flame through the glass makes this object fascinating and mesmerizing.
A design created by Cristina Celestino that treasures the aromas designed by the perfumer Olivia Giacobetti, Diptyque's nose for many years, known for creating scents like Feu de Bois, Philosykos, or Figuier.
When the wax level reaches approximately 5 mm, or the metal base holding the wick is visible, it means that the candle is finished.
Once the wax has cooled, place the candle in a container with water at 60°C, up to the halfway point. Wait 2 minutes for the wax to soften.
Remove the candle from the water and then take a round-tip knife. Run the blade of the knife between the glass and the edges of the soft wax disc, then slide the knife under the disc. Lift the loose wax disc and throw it in the trash.
Next, wash and dry the inside of the glass.
Open the refill by pulling on the tabs and insert the new block of wax into the candle glass.
The candle is ready to use!
