Launched at the same time as the Double Je exhibition at the Palais de Tokyo in Paris, this new scented candle by Astier de Villate was born out of a double artistic collabo- ration.

Visual artist Eudes Menichetti signed the illustrations on the packaging, with imag- es straight from his personal dreamscape: a strange half-organic half-plant creature is skipping rope, like a glimpse into this artist’s vision of a childlike paradise; a strange rami cation of leaved roots, meandering veins and nerve endings; and, last but not least, an awe-inspiring imbrication of nails, thumbtacks, snap buttons and tin cutouts that, once molded, create a ceramic goblet with lid that seem embossed and sculpted with the most extraordinary bas reliefs.

Available at Nose in both ceramic and glass candles (with their caramic cover) and incense on March 8th 2017.
