PHOTO COURTESY OF DIPTYQUE
There’s nothing quite like the stylish vibes of cafés along the likes of Canal Saint-Martin or Rue Saint-Honoré in Paris. Now thanks to the delectable Parisian Café collection between Diptyque and Café Verlet, the oldest Parisian coffee company, you can recreate it at home.
The limited-edition capsule is a departure from Diptyque’s usual botanical and floral blends. Instead, the perfumery serves up a trio of gourmet candles featuring fragrances borrowed from Café Verlet’s menu. They also showcase a special touch by British illustrator Clym Evernden, whose playful designs of whimsical Paris decorate the jars.
Firstly, Café (coffee) invites one to rest and recharge with the authentic aromas of freshly brewed espresso. For yet another delicious interlude, take in notes of cinnamon and patchouli in Biscuit. Finally, indulge in Chantilly (whipped cream), which a dash of vanilla makes all the sweeter.
Each full-size candle comes in at SGD109 for 190 g. And if you can’t decide on just one, there’s always the Small Candle Set (SGD205). This combines all three candles in 70 g sizes, so you can infuse any space with your very own Parisian café atmosphere.
The Diptyque x Café Verlet Parisian Café capsule is now available at Diptyque boutiques in ION Orchard, Takashimaya Shopping Centre and Raffles City. Otherwise, head to its dedicated spaces at Tangs at TANG Plaza, Escentials Paragon, or shop online via Escentials.
