Today—Forest Fragrance.

Carrière Frères Chestnut Candle

While not “roasting on an open fire,” Carriere Freres’ Chestnut Candle diffuses a warm woody scent that heightens the holiday atmosphere. Created by perfumery specialist Benjamin Belizon, the fragrance’s notes of sandalwood, dried fruits, and cedar evoke forest walks and misty evenings. The candle’s rich brown glass recalls the chestnut’s protective shell while the soft beige wax mirrors its tender flesh. The collection also features a diffuser with beige-tinted juice and a botanical palet which can be tucked as a sachet into drawers and intimate spaces.
