A Visit To The Diptyque Candle Factory {Fragrant Reading}
Jean-Claude Bulins has been making the famous Diptyque candles for nearly 20 years. Journalist Catherine Saint-Jean invites us on a tour of the candle factory located in Argenteuil.
Diptyque candles are usually produced in batches of 1250 units, except for some bestsellers like their new Maquis (2500) or some of their classics like Figuier and Baies (each produced in batches of 5000 copies). We learn that due to the high amount of natural oils used in the candles, each new scent needs to have a specific wax formula designed to accommodate the physical properties of the perfume mix and it does not always work, like for Musc.
