Inspired by the work of ancient herbalists, Carrière Frères’ fragrance diffuser comes in the shape of an apothecary flask. Made in France and eco-friendly in their design, the diffusers use untreated rattan sticks, a recyclable cork stopper, 100% recycled glass and 100% natural alcohol, offering a beautiful but also ethical way of perfuming your interior.

SANTALUM ALBUM – SANDALWOOD
Sandalwoods are wild, fragrant trees with tenacious leaves that grow in India’s Mysore state. Its wood was often used in building temples that to this day have kept its penetrating scent. Sandalwood oil has been used as a remedy for ailments for over four thousand years, and is a common fixative in perfumery. It is present in Hindu and Buddhist rituals, the former often making the bindi dot out of its paste, the latter turning it into incense. In Chinese medicine, sandalwood increases longevity, and builds confidence and determination.

FRAGRANCE
Sandalwood gives off a highly sweet, woody scent. Sensual and indulgent, its perfume is bewitching.
Its sweet and woody fragrance brings a welcome warmth in Autumn. Sandalwood is reputed for:
✓ Helping to overcome exhaustion, stress and anxiety,
✓ Helping to eliminate sleep disorders,
✓ Calming the nervous system,
✓ Its relaxing action: as a natural anxiolytic, it is beneficial for meditation.

DIFFUSION
The diffuser will usually last around 8-10 weeks. This duration may vary depending on the size of the room where the room fragrance diffuser is located, the room temperature, the exposure of the diffuser to direct sunlight, and draughts, which increase the evaporation of the perfume. In order to obtain a continuous diffusion, flip the sticks during the first two weeks of use and then every four days until complete evaporation of the perfume.

ABOUT THE BRAND
In 1884, the Carrière brothers took over the French Royal Wax Manufacturer (now known as Cire Trudon) with the intention to modernise it, while still preserving its historical savoir-faire.
With the industrial revolution well underway, access to electricity was becoming more widespread, and therefore candles weren’t as much of a necessity as they had been in the past. So, the Carrière brothers came up with a new way to keep candle use alive – candles as decorative objects! They create tapered and pillar candles for aesthetic use, for dinner settings or festivities, and they quickly became popular. At the 1889 Exposition Universelle (which the Eiffel Tower was built for) the brothers were awarded a gold medal for their vision and craft.
Inspired by the discoveries of 18th-century botanists and explorers, the Carrière Frères packaging and fragrances draw upon the natural biodiversity of the plant kingdom. In each and every scented candle or spray, perfume and botanical essences become one: composed like a periodic table, the Carrière Frères line honours scents extracted from herbs, roots, flowers, fruits or trees.
Each candle is made according to ancient expertise and handcrafted in the Trudon workshop in Normandy; the candles’ perfume coming from a blend of natural raw and synthetic materials. Since 2022, each of their candles and botanical palets are formulated with 100% vegetable wax, from European organic rapeseed.
