Small Candles

Diptyque small scented candles

Diptyque's collection of small scented candles is an invitation to delve into a multifaceted palette of scents to gift or keep for yourself: perfect for small spaces.

Drawing on the expertise it has built up over more than sixty years now, the Maison Diptyque explores and takes inspiration from nature in crafting its candle fragrances: fruits, flowers, herbs, trees and resins. An invitation to explore nature through the constellation of botanical families that make up our fragrant herbarium.

The perfect gift for any occasion

Diptyque’s small scented candles create a warm and welcoming atmosphere. They are ideal for use in small spaces, subtly releasing their scent for fragrance with a personal touch. Perfect for infusing offices, bathrooms, reading rooms and other living rooms with gorgeous scent, they are also elegant decorative pieces in their own right, designed to elevate your interiors.

These candles make unforgettable gifts for birthdays, anniversaries and special occasions: presents to gift or keep for yourself. Small enough to make beautiful little tokens to leave at each seat at your table. A refined, delicate way to show you care.

Diptyque’s small candles: premium candle-making expertise

As a pioneering candle-maker, the Maison Diptyque creates exceptional candles in a wide range of different sizes. For every fragrance and candle, our master candle-makers experiment with different combinations, mixing and matching textures and densities as they go. Each wick is chosen depending on the candle, and is carefully laid down and pulled through with the greatest of care. A premium French-made product.

The small candles are right at home in smaller rooms, gradually releasing their scent and filling the space with fragrance in just twenty minutes. Each is designed to burn bright for around twenty hours.

Diptyque’s small scented candles are underpinned by a rich herbarium of over ten scents. Woody notes reminiscent of a smoldering fireplace or walk through the forest. Delicate, bright springtime florals. Warm, hot and smoky spices. Fruits brought to life in an explosion of green, woody and juicy notes. Herbs that draw inspiration from verbena, lavender and mint.

Our artistry as perfumers and candle-makers shines through in the richness of the fragrances and botanical families we draw on: an invitation to explore the natural world that the Maison’s founders held so dear. Scented memories of faraway lands that unfold in a unique atmosphere for you to bring to life as you see fit.

The collection of fragrances includes a handful of iconic scents: Mimosa, with its velvety, honeyed notes, Ambre (Amber) and its woody, heady, lightly spiced baseline, Roses with its refreshing, floral, springtime feel. To light a Diptyque small scented candle is to carve out a moment just for yourself.

The Diptyque candles and a unique heritage

Our classic candles, the Villes Parfumées (City Candles) collection and the exclusive Worlds of Diptyque candles all serve as a continuation of the Maison’s legacy: a heritage steeped in travel, discovery and the intimate connection with nature that the founders first sparked over sixty years ago. The candles are designed to be used alongside a series of candle accessories: special pieces to protect them and perfect their flames and jars, all while elevating your interiors.

Last but not least, the scented candle gift sets make the perfect treat to keep or share with someone special whatever the occasion, and are a beautiful introduction to the Maison.
