From D'Orsay, the limited edition 18:18 Bois Imaginaire holiday candle: "A woody, aromatic scent imagined by Yann Vasnier for D’ORSAY, evoking an imaginary twilight walk through a pine forest — where bark, sap, and needles release a resinous breath, both raw and delicate, like a secret nature whispers at the edge of night.
