Hand-made Candles

Diptyque candles burn for a long time. The average is 50 to 60 hours. This is because the candles are made of pure paraffin wax. They have a lead-free wick. The company boasts that every candle is hand-made. Pouring this way ensures fine quality in each candle.
Floral Candles

Diptyque candles are available in a wide range of floral fragrances. These are made with natural flowers. Some of the most popular flowering scents are violet, lilac, rose and gardenia. Others are jasmine, mimosa, violet, and choisya. Some flowering smells have less familiar French names such as chevrefeuille and muguet.
