Diptyque introduces candle refills alongside redesigned vessels and new scents. 14 April 2026 Diptyque is updating its candle collection, introducing a redesigned vessel, new fragrances and a refill system aimed at extending product lifespan and reducing environmental impact. Across four chapters, the luxury brand seeks to reaffirm its timeless appeal while continuing evolve the fragrance experience. Chapter 1 - New design The brand's signature candle - recognisable by its transparent glass vessel, white wax and black-and-white oval label - has been subtly redesigned in collaboration with Franco-Swiss designer Julie Richoz. The updated vessel retains its original identity while incorporating refined contours. A new oval ridge in the glass frames the label, adding depth and enhancing the way light interacts with the surface. The label itself remains monochrome and oval-shaped, but now features a slightly raised texture and more defined lettering. However, the typography continues to reference the original design by Diptyque co-founder Desmond Knox-Leet, maintaining its cryptography-inspired style while appearing more pronounced. Chapter 2: New scents As part of the evolution, Diptyque is also expanding the range with five new fragrances, developed by perfumers Alexandra Carlin and Olivia Giacobetti. Amanda Morgan, Managing Director UK for Diptyque, tells TheIndustry.beauty: "Our herbarium of scents continues to play an essential key part of our fragrance design in Diptyque." The new fragrances align with the brand's ethos of discovering scents from around the world, embracing artistic freedom, and drawing inspiration from nature, inviting consumers on an olfactory journey. The additions are: * Café (Coffee) * Ortie (Nettle) * Sésame Noir (Black Sesame) * Rhubarbe (Rhubarb) * Shiso "Our Café candle comes from the freshly ground notes of coffee, a blend of roast with woody notes. Our new Ortie candle gives a vegetable watery and aromatic smell in the air. Rhubarb brings forth the classic sweet and tangy mix, a beautiful contrast," notes Morgan. "Sésame Noir introduces a dry and spicy scent from a black sesame paste, with hints of roasted hazelnuts. Lastly our new Shiso candle, encapsulates a fresh and aromatic scent of green, with a spicy tinge." Chapter 3 - Refills From autumn 2026, Diptyque will then introduce refills for its classic candles, initially available in ten of its core fragrances. The system is designed to extend the life of the glass vessel and reduce waste. The refill inserts are packaged in a protective casing made from paperfoam, a bio-based and recyclable material. The redesigned glass vessel is also approximately 10% lighter than previous versions. According to the brand, reusing the vessel can reduce the candle's carbon footprint by around 22%, with further reductions achieved through continued refill use. "The upcoming refills are in-line with the brand's continued efforts to extend the life of our products in a sustainable way, which Diptyque has been exploring in different avenues already. So, the candle refills were a natural next step for our iconic candles and an invitation to a new ritual with your candle," Morgan explains. "Craftsmanship is held in high importance in our production. Diptyque is known for its meticulous detail, an eye for design and with the new vessel, our candles feel even more elevated. It is all about the union of beauty and functionality without compromising on quality." Chapter 4 - Decorative objects The updated candle collection will also be accompanied by new decorative accessories designed around the theme of flame and light. These include items made from borosilicate glass and biscuit porcelain, such as a coated candle holder, a stand, a lid topped with the Diptyque pyramid, and matchboxes."

China Airlines unveils Marc Jacobs amenity kits. Published 25th March 2026 China Airlines has become the latest airline to refresh its amenity kits - an update that's likely to appeal to a new generation of travellers Flag carrier China Airlines is launching new amenity kits in premium economy and business class cabins in collaboration with American fashion house Marc Jacobs. Kits include a branded amenity bag, eye masks and leather cable tidy, as well as cosmetics from Danish lifestyle brand Frama. They will initially launch on the airline's route from Taipei to Prague on 28 March, before being rolled out across long-haul routes from May. The launch follows a flurry of big-name amenity kit collaborations, including Lufthansa's amenity kits teaming up with cult German skincare brand Babor and Qatar Airways joining forces with iconic French fragrance brand Diptyque. What's included. Those flying in China Airlines' business class cabins could receive one of two different styles. Inspired by Marc Jacobs' signature product - The Everyday Vanity Bag - the first is a structured boxy bag crafted in tan leather. China Airlines says the style will be offered on flights departing Taipei. The second style, available on return journeys, is a cream pouch with gold hardware and a bold Marc Jacobs logo. Both kits include a Marc Jacobs-branded eye mask and tan leather cable tidy, Frama lip balm and hand cream, plus a mini hairbrush, earplugs, bamboo dental set and multi-adaptor charging cable. Premium economy amenity bags come in two colours - either lemon yellow or dark blue - with the front embossed in Marc Jacobs' typical style, with text reading "The Flight Case". These include upgraded skin care products, as well as foldable slippers. Catering to a new demographic. The new amenity kits are the latest change to come in a series of updates to the carrier's inflight offering. Recently, China Airlines announced it will be updating its inflight entertainment selection later this year, adding shows from streaming platform Disney+, and introduced free inflight wifi last summer. The change made China Airlines the first Taiwanese carrier to offer complimentary inflight connectivity, allowing business class and premium economy passengers to enjoy unlimited browsing, while those in economy have access to free messaging. Another upgrade came in the form of inflight dining. The airline has teamed up with Taipei-based vegetarian restaurant Little Tree Food to offer vegetarian options on all routes, including truffle scrambled eggs in premium economy and business, and a mushroom fajita omelette in economy. While China Airlines says the dining refresh is a sustainability measure, it - along with the other updates - signals a broader strategic shift. Collectively, these changes appeal to younger travellers - a demographic that increasingly expects constant connectivity and a diverse range of dietary options. The latest collaboration with Marc Jacobs follows this direction. Thanks to its bold, NYC-inspired aesthetic and playful luxury appeal, the brand is popular among a fashion-forward crowd. It's currently at the forefront of the cultural landscape too, with the American designer being the focus of a new Sofia Coppola documentary due to hit cinemas across the US on 27 March. The collaboration ensures the airline secures a place in the minds of the new generation of travellers, while its partnership with Frama leans into the growing emphasis on wellness in the travel industry, aligning the brand with wider consumer trends.

Diptyque marries fragrance and tea at Mid-Autumn Moon Festival celebration. By the georgetowner - october 16, 2025 0 219. By annabel taylor. The French fragrance brand Diptyque celebrated the Mid-Autumn Moon Festival with a perfume and tea paring at the Georgetown store on M St. on Thursday, Oct. 9. The event fused signature fragrances with tea courtesy of Ching Ching Cha. The Mid-Autumn Moon Festival took place earlier this month on Monday, Oct. 6, the fifteenth day of the eighth lunar month. East and Southeast Asian cultures celebrate the arrival of the Harvest Moon at its fullest and brightest peak by eating mooncakes, carrying lanterns and enjoying family gatherings. Such Asian influences run through the veins of Diptyque's unique storytelling, providing a foundation for the cultural celebration in Georgetown this week. One of the brand's bestselling perfumes, Do Son, draws on Paris-born co-founder Yves Coueslant's childhood in Vietnam, where his father worked at Banque de l'indochine. The perfume's namesake is located in Halong Bay, where Coueslant recalled notes of tuberose flowers (hoa huệ), orange blossoms and jasmine carried by sea breeze. Do Son incorporates these memories through scent and the hand-drawn label which features a woman sitting on a wooden pagoda. The recent campaign for the perfume tells a visual narrative through Vietnamese motifs of seascapes and junk-ships, reminiscent of Coueslant's childhood. Tam Dao, another Vietnamese-inspired perfume, draws on sandalwood and incense woods that evoke Southeast Asian forests. The Tempo Fragrance derives from patchouli botanical sources in Sulawesi, Indonesia. Not to mention, the city candle collection is inspired by a dozen destinations worldwide. The Beijing, Hong Kong and Shanghai candles emulate "imperial temples" and "dizzying skyscrapers." In the past, Diptyque has worked with various Georgetown stores and businesses. This past summer, they held a "sip and scent" event with La Bonne Vache, where they curated a food and drink menu to pair with Diptyque scents as well as a summer preview event in collaboration with Ella Rue. For this event, they worked in conjunction with Ching Ching Cha in Dupont Circle, which used to occupy the space now home to Filomena. The event weaved a stunning array of Asian-inspired notes into both its scents and teas. The Lazulio fragrance - a blend of rhubarb and balsamic benzoin - was paired with the lightly floral and earthy Pu-erh and chrysanthemum tea. Lunamaris, a pink peppercorn scent, was matched with the delicate and fruity peach blossom tea. Finally, Rose Roche, a desert-inspired rose fragrance paired beautifully with the naturally sweet and aromatic rosebud tea. Diptyque also served chestnut mooncakes and taro pastries to commemorate the arrival of the Harvest Moon. Ching Ching Cha Associate Manal Bougazzoul described the creative process behind the pairings. "We were just kind of thinking about the flavor profiles and aromas of the perfumes that Diptyque presented us with, and then we were trying to find things that complemented or added to that profile," said Bougazzoul. "I think it's really lovely to pair two things that normally don't come together." In doing so, Diptyque brings together fragrance and the various senses into one universal language, where perfume becomes not just something to wear, but something to experience.
