Diptyque's Patchouli candle reveals the deep, earthy richness of this legendary note. As soon as the flame ignites, the air fills with a dark, mysterious warmth reminiscent of humid forests, with earth still fragrant after a rainstorm. It's a fragrance that exudes strength and sensuality, a scent both meditative and seductive.
The woody depth of patchouli is softened by subtle spicy and balsamic nuances, creating a rounded and velvety scent. As the candle burns, the composition deepens to an almost velvety intensity, transforming any space into an intimate cocoon of luxury and character. Patchouli is pure and authentic: a fragrance that touches the soul while simultaneously anchoring an interior in warmth and elegance.

To get the most out of your Diptyque candle, follow these burning instructions:
-
First burning: Let the candle burn for at least 2 to 3 hours, allowing the top layer to fully liquefy. This prevents tunneling and ensures an even burn.
-
Wick Care: Trim the wick to about 3 to 5 mm before relighting the candle. This prevents smoke and ensures a stable flame.
-
Limit burning time: Do not burn the candle for more than 3 to 4 hours at a time to prevent overheating and uneven combustion.
-
Extinguishing the flame: Use a candle snuffer or blow gently to minimize smoke and spatters.
-
Wax Restoration: If the wax has melted unevenly, you can let the candle burn until the top layer liquefies again.
-
Do not allow the candle to burn completely: Stop using when approximately 5mm of wax remains to prevent overheating of the glass.
By following these guidelines, you will enjoy your Diptyque candle longer and more safely.
