Christmas time, in a large part of the world is a time of the mini ice age, when snow flurries swirl across the sky and treacherous ice threatens road users and pedestrians. It is a time when the skies will go dark by mid-afternoon and the cold chills you to the bone. It’s no wonder then, that candles and warm scents do well at this time of year. Every bit of cheery light counts!<\/p>\n

And no one does Christmas candles quite like Diptyque. Every year, I wait to see what Diptyque has dreamed up for their Christmas collection, and I’m rarely disappointed. Ok, perhaps I have been a little disappointed, but that’s more to do with personal preferences.<\/p>\n

This year’s theme at chez Diptyque is Une Nuit Chez Diptyque (A Night at Diptyque)<\/strong>, a theme with an interesting story. Legend has it that a long-serving Diptyque staff, Henri who has been with the brand for over 25 years, was snowed in the store at 34 Boulevard St. Germain one Christmas. He fell asleep and had a dream about the store coming to life. He might have overdosed on the Nutcracker, methinks LOL! \ud83d\ude00 But it’s a cute story, and a lovely tribute to a long serving staff member \ud83d\ude42\u00a0I have the video up on the MWS Facebook page<\/a>, if you’re interested to\u00a0view it. It’s really cute! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

I’ll just run down some of the offerings, for those who are keen.<\/p>\n

Diptyque Christmas Candles – RM170 | \u00a328 | US$35 for 70g and RM295 | \u00a348 | US$70 for 190g<\/h2>\n

First off of course, are the Diptyque Christmas candles. They come in 3 limited edition scents, in beautiful limited edition metallic jars. There is a theatrical feel about the design, and the full size candle boxes come with an outer sleeve, with a pull open window, giving you a peep at the design. Very well executed.<\/p>\n
