11:40 Candle "Baies Défendues"
FORBIDDEN BAYS
A woody, fruity fragrance evoking a sensual picking, imagined by Vincent Ricord for D’ORSAY.
Just as the crickets begin to sing, an acidulous idea pops up in my mind. We can elope along this coastal path, exchange Currants with our lips, eat Raspberries placed on our fingertips, mix our hair, and lie on the Moss…
“11:40 is a break that is both gourmand and mischievous. I’ve combined the natural sweetness of red fruits with the tartness of blackcurrant and the more pungent character of cedar and frankincense. The notes of moss and pine needle strengthen the fragrance while ambroxan adds radiance.” - Vincent Ricord, Perfumer

❖ Never leave a lit candle unattended, and do not burn one for more than 2 hours at a time.
❖ Always burn a candle until the entire surface liquifies, and allow it to solidify before re-lighting.
❖ Keep the wick trimmed to ¼ inch at all times, to avoid any black smoke. Gently re-position the wick while the wax is still molten.
❖ Always protect the surface on which the candle rests.
❖ Once only ¼ inch of wax remains, blow out the candle and let it fully cool before safely discarding it.
