Les Délicieuses by Diptyque x Café Verlet is a limited-edition candle collection that gives classic Diptyque candles a sweet twist inspired by beloved cafe treats. In all, there are four candles—Café, Chantilly, Biscuit and Fruits—with decadent, dessert-like notes. Although sweet candles sometimes veer into sickly territory, these achieve a delicate balance of notes that candle lovers will want to keep burning to experience.
Café captures the authentic aromas of espresso from Café Verlet, and Biscuit takes cues from the biscuits served at the Parisian establishment, brightened by cinnamon and patchouli. These elegant, giftable Diptyque x Café Verlet candles are turned into a feast for the eyes with artful designs by British illustrator Clym Evernden.
