The Very Large Candle

We invite you to discover our usage tips to enjoy your candle in the best possible conditions.

Candles to light indoor and outdoor spaces alike

Diptyque’s very large scented candles work in all living spaces. Whether in the living room or on the patio, the Maison's iconic scents elevate indoor and outdoor spaces alike.

Preparing your indoor space

To protect your surfaces, particularly if they're delicate (like wood or marble), it's best to place your candles on a felt pad (provided with the product) or a stand.

Preparing your outdoor space

To ensure optimal burning and high-quality diffusion, place the candle away from the wind and direct sunlight.

Light the candle

Your journey starts here. We recommend lighting your candle with a match to avoid any risk of burning yourself.

Coax out the scent

Leave your candle to burn until the entire surface has turned to liquid (around 4 hours). Never leave a candle unattended. Keep candles out of the reach of children and pets, and away from curtains and any other flammable materials.

Candle care

Inspired by the iconic Diptyque oval, a snuffer and wick trimmer ensure optimal burning to preserve and extend the enjoyment of candles. A finishing touch to complete the scented ceremony.
