Palais de Tokyo Candle

Discover Palais de Tokyo Candle by Astier de Villatte.

Overlooking the Seine like a futuristic vessel adrift in the currents of artistic imagination, the Palais de Tokyo commands the view. A compelling scent drifts through its raw concrete corridors — smoky woods, warm skin and metallic vibrations mingling in the air. This candle contains essences of cedarwood, juniper, gaiac wood, oakmoss and cashmeran, with the fragrance created by Christophe Raynaud in collaboration with the Palais de Tokyo.

Its plant-based wax, enriched with a touch of beeswax, is soot-free and exceptionally supple, ensuring flawless diffusion of the fragrance both hot and cold. The pure cotton wick provides clean, even burning for 60–70 hours, depending on the scent. Each candle is presented in a hand-blown Tuscan glass tumbler, transparent with a soft grey tint and delicate bubbles for a timeless finish. Labels and packaging are lead-printed on traditional presses by SAIG, one of the last typographic workshops in the world.
