Diptyque Foin Coupé Candle

June 19th, 2006

Since we’re on the subject of summer scents, I’ve picked a fitting candle - Diptyque Foin Coupé (Fresh Mown Hay). As a child, I spent quite a few summers visiting both of my grandmothers in the countryside, and, while they didn’t make me work too hard, it was always my job to help them gather hay. Therefore, the smell of fresh mown hay is very familiar. Foin Coupé evokes these memories. Its aroma is grassy, slightly sweet, with soft musky undertones. My nose also detects some meadow flowers. The candle is of superb quality, burns evenly, with an excellent, long-lasting throw. In my presently air-conditioned apartment, it brings out summer freshness that I sometimes find so lacking in the city.

Diptyque Foin Coupe is available at various online boutiques and retailers nationwide. To mention a few: Aedes, Bigelow Chemists, Lusciouscargo, Four Seasons Products.
