Five expressions
We keep the range deliberately short. Four permanent candles, each built around a single idea of atmosphere, and one seasonal edition poured twice a year and never repeated. Nothing here exists to fill a shelf.
No. 01
Warm, low and steady — the scent of a room that has been lived in kindly.

No. 02
Green and milky at first, then creamy and unhurried — a late-summer softness.

No. 03
Cool, clarifying, quietly awake — light before the day has asked anything of you.

No. 04
Dark, tannic, faintly sweet — comfort with something serious underneath.

Limited
Resinous and ceremonial — the smell of shortening days and long tables.

Our first expression, and still the one we return to. Cedar gives the composition its spine: dry, resinous, faintly pencil-shaving. Amber softens the edges until the whole thing reads less like fragrance and more like temperature.
“A quiet study on a winter evening, one lamp on, the rest of the house asleep.”
Poured in the studio. See how it is made.
NOCTÉ No. 02
Fig is difficult to hold: it wants to be sharp, then sweet, then gone. Sandalwood keeps it in place. The result is a fragrance that sits at skin height rather than filling the room — intimate, and better for it.
“A long lunch that ran into the afternoon, windows open, plates still on the table.”
Poured in the studio. See how it is made.
NOCTÉ No. 03
The most restrained candle we make. Citrus lifts, moss grounds, and vetiver draws a thin damp line beneath both. We keep the fragrance load deliberately low here — the point is clarity, not presence.
“A bright kitchen at seven in the morning, first coffee, rain on the glass.”
Poured in the studio. See how it is made.
NOCTÉ No. 04
Vanilla is easy to overdo. We built this one backwards, starting from the dry bitterness of steeped tea leaves and adding only enough bourbon vanilla to round the finish. What remains is warmth without sugar.
“A hotel room in an unfamiliar city, coat still on the chair, evening arriving early.”
Poured in the studio. See how it is made.
NOCTÉ Limited
Twice a year we pour a small run tied to the season we are actually living through. Each edition is made once, in a batch of a few hundred, and never repeated. When it is gone it becomes a note in the archive.
“Midwinter, the hour after guests leave and the room is still warm from them.”
Poured in the studio. See how it is made.
