Diptyque's limited edition Fleur de Cerisier is back for 2024 with a highly lemmable floral design: "The Fleur de Cerisier (Cherry Blossom) scented candle is back to celebrate the spring season and its delicate, ephemeral pink blooms. As summer approaches, it will be carried away by the breeze like fluttering petals." In 190g, currently at Diptyque in Hong Kong for HK$600 but scheduled for worldwide release.

The fragrances are from perfumer Olivia Giacobetti, and I'll take any or all: La Forêt Rêve (mauve, a "fantastical forest" in the "Mexican jungle"; with tuberose, ylang ylang, jasmine, vanilla and galbanum); La Vallée du Temps (smoke/white, "Jingdezhen....cradle of Chinese porcelain, also famous for its white tea", with white tea, maté and jasmine); Nymphées Merveilles (blue/gray, "gardens of the Renaissance", with orange blossom, jasmine and iris); Temple des Mousses (green, "a Japanese Zen garden...not far from Kyoto", with moss, cedar and matcha); Terres Blondes (terracotta, "Mesa Verde. On the high plateaux of Colorado", with wheat bran, red cedar and burnt earth). The 270g candles are $285 each, the refills are $135. You can find them now at Saks.
