UN GARDENIA LA NUIT scented candle by Dominique Ropion. A gardenia that is larger than life.
More than just a candle, this is a radically elegant design piece that will set the olfactory mood for any room. The wax is hand-poured into matt porcelain, enhancing the fragrance contained and diffusing it for a long time.
UN GARDENIA LA NUIT produces the unmistakeable, almost carnal scent of this white flower, for which no natural essence exists. To achieve this stunning feat, Dominique Ropion worked with headspace, a modern technology that is used to analyse the scent molecules present in an air sample. This is how he managed to reproduce the flower’s scent almost identically... Immortalised on a summer’s night, the gardenia reveals the full complexity of its milky, spicy, fruity fragrance, which is also irresistibly fresh and green.
