Details & care

What it is: A scented candle housed in a cognac-colored glass container that is a beautiful focal point for any room.

Fragrance story: Its warm, elegant scent combines notes of woods, vetiver and patchouli enhanced with radiant aniseed, insolent spices, mysterious incense, cistus and tonka bean.

How to use: The first time you burn your diptyque candle, allow it to burn for at least two hours until the whole top is liquid with wax to help your candle burn more evenly next time. Before lighting, trim the wick to 1/4-inch length, which will allow the candle to burn slowly and will help avoid unsightly black marks around the edge of the glass. After blowing out your candle, re-center and straighten the wick.

Fills the whole room

The price point makes it a bit of a splurge but it’s honestly worth every penny - the scent is warm, inviting and a little spicy but not in an overbearing way. Fills the entire room and the scent even lingers when it isn’t burning. Such a cosy and expensive scent. Also love using the empty jar after as pretty storage

very weak scent

Before burning it, I like how the candle smells. But after I lightened it up, I let it burned for about three hours. During this process, I could not smell anything from the candle unless I approached very very closed to the candle. This is a huge disappointment especially thinking about how expensive this product is.

Warm and smooth

Lovely warm scent for the colder months. It's very strong and can be smelt when unlit (although not through the sealed packaging like the Tubereuse candle!). Burns well and the 70g candle easily fills a room. It's a very smooth scent - not harsh like some ambers can be.

Amazing scent!

I’ve been buying this scent over the years and I love that it’s still the same. High quality, good throw, and burns well. They also last a long time, I just found one half burned in a drawer that it’s at least 3 years old and it’s still smells great!

Perfect for a cosy evening curled up with a book

Diptyque candles are simply the best - the burn time, how easily they burn, and the elegant packaging that looks equally lovely with make-up brushes in when the candle has finished burning. Ambre is probably my second favourite of their candles (after Baies) and I love it for dark, autumn nights when I want to feel cosy with its notes of amber.

Cosy Autumn Candle

I love Diptyque candles,they burn so well and this one is just absolutely perfect for this time of year when you want to get cosy at home once the darker evenings set in. A lovely rich and warming Amber scent that lingers in the space long after the candle has burnt out.

Warm cosy scent

didn’t expect to love Ambre as much as I do, but wow—it’s so warm and cosy without being heavy or too sweet. There’s a bit of spice and woodiness that makes it feel super comforting, like the vibe you want on a rainy day or quiet evening in. I loved the scent so much I went out and bought the room spray too, which I now use all the time. It’s quickly become one of my favorites.

Grown up

Such a beautiful, complex and grown up scent and really fills the room! Perfect candle for any time of year but especially as it starts to get colder and darker outside. I absolutely loved using this. i have tried lots of cheaper candles but really nothing compares to Diptyque. Another beautiful product and scent from Diptyque

Loved it a lot

Beautiful scented candle. I re bought it twice, but somehow decided not to give it a go with a third. The scent is powerful and will work great for a bigger size room. It reminds me a lot of dessert warmth evening. The more you use it the more you going to like it. Great quality, beautiful packaging. Recommended!

The quality of the Diptique candles is like no other totally understandable that they are one of the best you can buy. I have many of their products all absolutely outstanding.

Great throw and unique Ambre scent

Ambre is my favourite candle scent but it's not the easiest scent to find. I've tried a few from various but this by Diptyque is my number one candle and a gorgeous gift. The throw goes far, and you can even smell the candle when it's not lit and you're walking past

The best

This is by far the best Amber accord I have ever found. It’s deep and resinous but without falling into the woody and oud as many ambers do. It’s spicy but not cloying spice and it’s the right balance between frankincense and spices. It’s like a trip across ancient desert routes - I have been to Petra is every time I smell this I think of Petra.
