Diptyque Unveils 2024 Holiday Collection
This Christmas, Diptyque has partnered with artist Lucy Sparrow to create its 2024 Holiday Collection and transform Maison Diptyque London with enchanting displays that blend creativity with festive tradition.
Known for her unique blend of art and craftsmanship, Lucy Sparrow is a contemporary artist whose installations evoke both joy and a nostalgic emotional response. Drawing from Diptyque’s creative spirit and the founders’ playful love of materials, this artisanal Christmas collaboration reimagines symbols of wintertime and the icons of the Maison. The collection features a delightful range of products, spanning personal and home fragrances, decorative objects, and desirable gifts.
Artworks
As part of this holiday celebration, Sparrow has collaborated with Diptyque to bring classic seasonal icons to life in a festive felt wonderland. Handmade pieces such as pine trees, pinecones, gingerbread men, and candy canes are joined by Diptyque items such as perfume bottles and historic candles—all reimagined in felt.
These limited-edition artworks are available exclusively at Maison Diptyque London, while a limited-edition set featuring the Gingerbread Man, Star, and Christmas Tree will be available online from 21 November, alongside a special Felt Stocking.
Advent Calendar
Diptyque’s 2024 Advent Calendar is crafted as a charming sewing box, paying homage to Sparrow’s artistry. Containing 25 surprises to delight in the lead-up to Christmas Day, the calendar includes mini candles, a variety of personal and home fragrance items, and decorative pieces like hand-blown glass candle holders and festive felt accessories that embody the spirit of the season. Additional treats include a pine tree-shaped lantern and a whimsical carousel that gently spins with the warmth of a candle’s flame, adding an extra layer of holiday enchantment.
Holiday Scents
Central to the Holiday Collection are three special-edition candles in signature scents: Sapin (Pine Tree), Étoile (Star), and Friandise (Sweet Treat). Each candle is adorned with a felt label and presented in coloured glass that reflects its fragrance—deep green for Sapin, midnight blue for Étoile, and rich red for Friandise. Sapin captures the essence of Siberian pine and balsam fir, with hints of cedar and Indonesian patchouli; Étoile evokes a starlit winter night with rosy notes, sandalwood, mimosa, and iris; and Friandise exudes the cosy warmth of gingerbread, cinnamon, star anise, candied orange, and vanilla.
The collection also reimagines Diptyque’s beloved fragrances—Do Son, Fleur de Peau, and Orphéon—in limited-edition bottles, each featuring intricate gold etchings on both the glass and outer packaging.
Sapin Collection
For Diptyque enthusiasts, the collection extends the Sapin scent to a selection of limited-edition items, including a Home Fragrance Diffuser, Room Spray, Taper Dinner Candle, and an Extra-Large Candle encased in a green enamelled vessel speckled with gold, crafted by Virebent, a renowned French artisan factory.
The hero of the Sapin collection is the Advent Taper Candle which takes inspiration from Scandinavian tradition. Weighing nearly one kilogram and moulded into the shape of a pine tree adorned with golden numerals, the advent candle offers a uniquely beautiful way to count down to Christmas Day.
Festive Decorations
To conclude the seasonal offering, the collection also includes a beautiful range of decorative pieces, such as candle lids, elegant candle holders, reflective lanterns, and a variety of candle stands, along with a candy cane treat box, classic matchbox, and gilded matchbox sleeve.
Highlights include the 1,000 Flames Reflecting Candle Stand, Golden Constellation Candle Holder, Holiday Cheer Sleeve, and Holiday Lantern, along with beautiful baubles hand-blown by an Italian master glassblower.
Maison Diptyque London
Further embracing the holiday spirit, Lucy Sparrow has transformed Maison Diptyque London into a whimsical delicatessen filled with her signature felt creations. The space is brimming with festive delights, from felt wine bottles and cheese platters to candy canes, chocolates, and cinnamon biscuits. Even Diptyque’s iconic items, like perfumes and candles—complete with felt flames—have been lovingly reimagined.
This unique installation is open now through December, with Maison Diptyque London hosting two festive workshops—Personalised Felt Decorations and Create a Winter Wreath—inviting visitors to craft their own seasonal keepsakes. Additionally, the Maison will feature Sparrow’s limited-edition Diptyque artworks, along with exclusive bronze accessories created in collaboration with Maison Intègre. This exclusive collection includes botanical-motif lids, candle stands, and an elegant light reflector designed to suit classic, medium, and large candles.
Maison Diptyque is located at 107 New Bond Street, London, W1S 1ED. The Diptyque Holiday Collection is available to customers in the US and UK at diptyqueparis.com.
