Favourite Diptyque candle scent?

Which Diptyque candles are your favourites? I usually buy a Feu de Bois for December and Essence de JG as an occasional treat at other times of the year but I'm looking for some recommendations. If anyone knows of any other brand with the same level of scent and longevity recommendations are welcome for those too!

But the only way to describe it , if you’ve ever been to the hall of mirror in Autumn or winter and it’s freezing and you get this faint , woody warm scent ?

ShockI have! I lived in Paris for a few years so I used to do the touristy bits in the depths of winter when there were less people. A miserable Tuesday is the best day for anyone wondering.

Figuier is my favourite candle of them all. Not wintery or Christmassy but I absolutely love it. I buy the 70g one for about £29 and it lasts ages.

Currently smelling feu de Bois and have Insolite as my next candle. Love Diptyque.

Oh dear, now I’ve gone and bought Flocon too. It was the beautiful jar that did it.

Baies is the favourite in our house, I always have one of those huge 5 wick ones on the go (once it's all burnt away I've started to eBay the empty jar, the last one sold for £60!)

Haven't smelt this years Christmas ones yet!

Please note- I take no responsibility for the dwindling bank balances of anyone who reads this thread

I think I've settled on Baies, Narguile and my old faithful Feu des Bois. That should keep me going for a good 3 months at least. I can only dream of the day I can afford a 5 wick candle and a house big enough to take that scent!

Oh I wish but no, I'm miles away from any nice shops.
