Luxury perfume brand Diptyque has a 'katol'-like incense for sale
Diptyque is selling a brand new incense and it's shaped like the Philippines’ katol.
According to the luxury perfume brand's website, the Citronelle (Lemongrass) Incense is retailing for 60 Euros, or approximately P4,262.94.
It features a brown circular coil, with its look reminiscent of the Philippines’ famous mosquito killer.
In its official description, the "summer limited edition" product invites users to a “refreshing, sensorial escape at the heart of a water garden.”
“Its fresh, herbaceous scent creates an outdoor oasis. Placed on its small oval stand or paired with the enameled ceramic incense holder, their fragrant spirals create a serene cocoon,” Diptyque said.
Each set contains six scented coils, or three pairs of 12 grams, and one incense stand.
The round-shaped incense even has its own green porcelain incense holder priced at 140 Euros or P9,946.86.
Made by Mathilde Jonquière, who created a collection of original mosaic works, the incense holder is inspired by summer water garden landscapes, with materials such as Venetian enamels, glass paste, and gold.
Diptyque says the design captures “the poetry of the moment, like a mirror reflecting the freshness of a lush, sunlit garden.”
A Parisian brand born in the 1960s, Diptyque is known for its fragrances, lotions, hair mists, body gels, candles, and home décor.
Some of its scents include Eau des Sens, Orpheon, Fleur de Peau, and more.
