Product Review

Stockholm-based brand Byredo focuses on craft and quality - its candles are handmade in France and housed in mouth-blown glass. This black wax 'Ambre Japonais' version has a distinctive spicy fragrance from generous top notes of Coriander Seed and Black Pepper, rounded off by rich, sweet hints of Bourbon and Vanilla. Ambre Japonais celebrates the sophisticated art of Japanese gardens. The candle evokes an imaginary place where black peppercorn grows together with coriander seeds and in which bourbon vanilla melds with the toasted scent of sesame and notes of sandalwood.
