And on the 22nd day of this advent calendar, we give one of the most universally loved gifts: a Diptyque Baies candle. Because if there is anything 2021 has taught us, it is to take pleasure in the simple rituals of everyday life. (And part of my morning routine is lighting a candle right before I make myself a cup of coffee.)
The Baies signature scent, a warm note reminiscent of black-currant berries, is a sure crowd-pleaser for anyone left on your list of people to get a gift for. This 190-gram candle burns for over 60 hours, and the scent lingers long after the wick is out.
