Sesame Noir Classic Candle DIPTYQUE

In the heat of the oven, black sesame seeds slowly turn golden brown. Their dry, spicy aroma fills the air with intensity.

Roasted black sesame seeds are enveloped in woody accords and notes of roasted hazelnuts. An enduring, rounded scent.

Story
The bohemian neighborhood of Saint-Germain-des-Prés, 1963.
Guided by a desire to share their olfactory memories, Yves Coueslant, Christiane Gautrot, and Desmond Knox-Leet created Diptyque’s first three scented candles: Aubépine (Hawthorn), Cannelle (Cinnamon) and Thé (Tea).

The three founders’ fascination with nature gave rise to an exceptional herbarium of scents comprising more than fifty candles. Flowers, fruits, trees, herbs and spices make up this living collection.

The result of exceptional craftsmanship, the art of perfumery meets candle-making expertise. Each candle is made from a blend of several types of wax and a high-quality fragrance concentrate, as well as a selection of a wick that guarantee perfect scent diffusion and combustion. Meticulous work carried out in two factories, near Paris and in Provence, by master candle makers.
