Discussion for the Diptyque Crowd (please join!)

[AnneMCC]

If you are a fan obsessed or just a beauty lover curious about Diptyque, come on over! I thought this would be a fun place to share your thoughts, collections, decorating ideas, questions about the fabulous world of Diptyque.

I started out with one candle, the Beverly Hills candle-which is so fabulous-I'll post a picture of it tomorrow-thinking I was crazy to buy a $70 candle. Yes, it's crazy-crazy good! I've since collected 2 or 3 more and purchased a perfume. This week I got my first body care item, the satin body oil. I really love everything from Diptyque.

So let's discuss 🙂 One question I have is how do you get the inside cleaned out so you can use the jars for pretty collections like I see a lot of on social media?

Mailer from diptyque that shows some holiday items- along with some existing stuff from the 34 collection-some of which are already on direct site. 

I haven't gotten a photophore yet but there are 2- one a crackle glass and one shaped like a lampshade that has paper inserts to change the look. I know it is slightly ridiculous (maybe part of the appeal) but I love the little carousel that goes on top of a candle- it is supposed to spin with the air current created by the lit candle warming the air. I also love the marble-looking candle cover.

This is too cute! How do you sign up for Diptyque mailers and catalogues?

[lipstick4soul]

I get it through a boutique that I shop with. I'd be happy to share my SA info as well.

also, random question, what is your profile picture @Gwenhwyfar? Looks like a nudibranch/ sea monster, lol. 

[Gwenhwyfar]

Thanks! It is a nudibranch! 🙂 He's a cutie.

[AnneMCC]

@Gwenhwyfar on Diptyque dot com you can sign up for their news and I shop at the Beverly Hills boutique. Allison there can send you one, she's the best!

Hi @AnneMCC, this is sort of a random question to ask but do you know if the Beverly Hills boutique still has any of their limited edition "Beverly hills" candles? I know they restocked at one point but it was a while ago.

[Gwenhwyfar]

@AnneMCC Thanks! I already get their emails, but I wondered if paper mail was different. I would like to see all of the holiday collection in one place; I'll check with my Nordstrom SA. 🙂

[AnneMCC]

Yes that spinning candle wheel! One of the gals from the boutique called to tell me about that. I think I need a youtube video to understand it LOL

They sent me the catalog which I haven't had time to go through yet but the collection looks fab! I can post some more pics when I get time.

From Diptyque direct: "Delight in the mystery of the 34 Collection with a 35g Redouté candle and a 10ml Benjoin Bohème Eau De Parfum sample. Enjoy this exclusive set with any $150 order when you apply the code DIPTYQUE at checkout."

 Got an email from them this morning, with the above blurb in light grey at the very top so I almost missed it-- it's almost like Diptyque doesn't want me to redeem their promo! :S A Nordies counter (not the one that I normally order from) had a similar offer-- the same 35g Redoute candle and a deluxe sample of 2016 Essences Incenses instead of Benjoin Boheme (which is a boutique exclusive). If anyone is interested in the offer, it might be worth it to call up your local Nordstrom!

[AnneMCC]

@NarNarNars thanks for posting! I am going to call the Nordstrom gal you told me about, hoping she has a nice gift package for Trend show coming up 🙂

[NarNarNars]

 My pleasure, @AnneMCC! Please report back and let us know what Alex has to offer this time around! I called another Nordstrom, just because she didn't have what I was looking for according to the pay and pick up function of the Nordies website. If she has something better, then I may place another order with her... #firstworldproblem

It looks like two new skincare products are now live on Diptyque's direct site.

I'm super interested to see how the facial oil compares to something like the Korres Wild Rose oil, which is also rose-infused and has a dry oil-like texture as well.

For the Essential Face Cream, if it's recommended to be used like a "face mask," I imagine that the texture is quite thick.  Would be interested to see if it's similar to other popular heavy face creams like La Mer.

[lipstick4soul]

There was also a lip balm in this collection. The theme with the new release is "infused"- rose petals in the face oil etc.  lovely concept and am interested to try but I really think of diptyque more for scents than skincare. Will be interested to hear how popular the skincare and body lines really are. I think they would make great gifts because they are so beautiful, but not sure I'd buy them for myself. Very reasonable price points, considering.

Christmas candles

So I was browsing in Saks this morning and they have a limited edition Diptyque notebook, comes in 3 colors. Looks like Barney's had it at one point but it's OOS now. 

[NarNarNars]

So I received my order from Alex yesterday. I made a purchase of $150 exactly, and here are the gifts that I got (from L to R): Tuberose mini candle, atomizer filled with any fragrance of your choice (I chose Eau Rose), Do Son Shower oil, and Do Son fragrance sample spray, along with the canvas bag. The shower oil is .5 oz (15ml), and smells great! The atomizer is about the size of my index finger, both length- and girth-wise, and it's completely filled to the top. I'd say it's a bit smaller than the deluxe sample spray, so I think it was a pretty generous gift. This atomizer is the "default" gift with any purchase, and the rest is for a $150+ purchase. 

 Overall it's not the best Diptyque GWP I have ever seen-- I still think that the black friday GWP from Diptyque direct just can't be beat--, but this is the best I've found for Nordstrom anniversary sale this year. 🙂

[AnneMCC]

Thanks for sharing! I got that bag too as a GWP from the Beverly Hills store.
