Coming soon from Diptyque, the limited edition Pinède candle: "Diptyque Pinède (Pine Grove) Classic Candle unfolds with that sun-warmed calm the house does best. Housed in a glass vessel, Mathilde Jonquière’s mosaic-inspired design recalls a water-garden landscape. The fragrance leans woody and aromatic, a chorus of umbrella pines meeting a herbarium of notes—warm underbrush, flowering shrubs, and the brightness of orange trees by sunlit fountains." The 190g candle will be about $94, and the green lid shown above will not be included in the price.
