Diptyque Baies Candle Review + Price

The Beauty Junkee Saturday, January 07, 2017
Here's a review on Diptyque Baies Candle.

PRICE: P3,400.00
FROM: Given as gift
OTHER LOCATIONS: Available in all Rustans department stores; Diptyque boutique, Central Square, BGC, Taguig City

 THE VERDICT:

We all have our luxuries; some may call it impractical, but I call it I-Deserve-It hobbies; mine are luxury candles; I owned a couple before from Laura Mercier and Jo Malone, but Diptyque remains a dream. I even have this crazy fantasy of filling all corners of my future house with Diptyque candles, lighting 'em up at my whim, and having the gigantic multi- wick Diptyque candle in the middle of my living room.

My mother gifted me with Diptyque Baies candle; it is my first Diptyque and I was ecstatic about it! My mother truly loves me because she is willing to support my impracticalities in life LOL. Now I don't know if owning a Diptyque is actually a good idea because I'm nowhere near done with Baies yet I am already planning to get new candles! Haha!


DIPTYQUE BAIES CANDLE IN DETAIL

Diptyque is the great French fragrance repertory that has been making home and body fragrances for over 50 years. Baies is a concoction of Roses, Blackcurrant, and Sweet Berries.

Luckily, mom was able to score the holiday edition of this candle. Aside from the regular box, it came in a Christmas edition box; I'm having a hard time throwing it away so I kept it in my bookshelf for now. :D

Each Diptyque purchase comes with a box of exclusive Diptyque long matches.

DIPTYQUE BAIES CANDLE IN ACTION

Baies has an elegant fruity smell that is more relaxing than uplifting, thanks to the underlying Rose trail that gives the scent a mellow appeal. I have come to realize why Diptyque candles are ridiculously expensive: it is because the high quality wax produces minimal to no fumes, thus I can light up this 190g votive candle in air- conditioned rooms and even in tight spaces; all I get is the warm, soothing image of a lighted candle and the beautiful scent of Baies filling the air.

It is a no brainer, I'd repurchase Baies and Diptyque candles in general.

    I am addicted to scented candles too! I hoard them when they are on sale. I am not particular when it comes to brand. When I like the scent and its on budget, I buy it. I specially love vanilla scented candles. It is super relaxing for me. Perfect when I am doing my twice a week 10-step skin care. I feel like I am having a professional facial. :)

    I want a house to smell good as well but I am more on the humidifier, diffuser whatever with oils. hihi. Lavender or bamboo will do. But when I think of candles, I am thinking of a surprise dinner for my soon to be hubby at our house. Yey! Looking forward to that day in our life.

      I've used humidifiers and diffusers before, but my cat would knock 'em off! I've gotten fond of candles because it's one thing he can't knock off because he's afraid of fire. :)

    Based on your product ratings, yeah, I believe you really love it. 😂 I find it impractical but it depends naman if you can afford it since may benefits naman sya. 😉
