Scented candle

Marine Notes, Orange Blossom, Virginia Cedarwood, Musk

A Woody, Musky fragrance evoking the first drops of rain on concrete, imagined by Vincent Ricord for D’ORSAY.

With this scented candle, here we are: outside your door. Let’s imagine the moment: it hasn’t rained for eight years. A first drop falls, scenting the asphalt with a familiar Accord Marin, mixed with a hint of Orange. Delicious. The next moment, a deluge of Cedar. This fragrance might as well be in your home.

Crafted with exceptional glassmaking and jewelry expertise, the 250-gram candle is part of a sustainable approach, as it is refillable.

The words of the
perfumer:

"For this fragrance, I wanted to work on a note that was both aqueous and electric to express the rain on hot concrete at the beginning of a storm. We thus find the very vertical side of the dry wood which gives the electric dimension, and this humus, musky orange blossom side which fills the wood with water and brings this wet dimension. The floral and woody character is balanced like the masculine/feminine in this fragrance."

Vincent Ricord

Declaration

00:30 En bas de chez toi

Of Love

00:30 Pleasant, familiar, primal: the smell of wet earth after a dry spell. Imagine the moment: it hasn’t rained for eight years, we step out for a walk. A drop of rain falls, kissing the concrete. What a wonderful smell. A minute later, it starts to pour. You might as well take it home, the scent of petrichor.

Creation

This fragrance captures the indefinable smell we all know when a rainstorm hits the hot asphalt. This smell is called Petrichor, a name derived from the ancient Greek word for "stone" (petros) and "blood" (ikhôr).
