diptyque paris has announced its new boutique at Old Spitalfields Market, London E1, which opened its doors last week. This is diptyque’s sixth and biggest standalone store in London. The space has launched with a holiday theme based on a winter fairytale named The Legend of the North, dreamt up by artist Pierre Maire and Ahmed Terbaoui, which is the inspiration for the 2018 Holiday collection. Old Spitalfields Market was a natural choice for the brand, with Amanda Morgan, UK MD of diptyque commenting: “Old Spitalfields Market has been on our radar for a while, it was a matter of finding the right space for the brand to express ourselves. This spacious store will allow us to showcase our Parisian personality through different rituals to discover our personal and home fragrances.” In the Old Spitalfields Market boutique discover the new diptyque holiday collection, which includes three limited edition candle creations designed by artist Pierre Marie. Pine Tree of Light is a soft, captivating scent evoking fir trees, warmed by the delicate, neighbouring cedars. Amber Balm strikes a gracious accord between vanilla and benzoin, enhanced by the freshness of lavender. Exquisite Almond is as delicious as it sounds – a gourmand almond scent with a hint of tonka bean. diptyque Holiday Candles are available in 70g (£30) and 190g (£53).
