Since 1961 Parisian perfumer <a href=" http://www.selfridges.com/GB/en/cat/diptyque/" style="text-decoration: none"><font color="black"><b>Diptyque</b></font></a> has been making exquisite fragrances from their base at Boulevard Saint-Germain. The scented candle la Madeleine was made with the help of a patisserie in the south of France, creative director Myriam Badault’s favourite. With its nod to Proust and to all things French, the candle has a warm, buttery and comforting aroma.
