37 RUE DE BELLECHASSE SCENTED CANDLE
Enter the sacred ambiance of this address through a rare elemi, and its leathery, peppery nuances.
TRAVEL TO
37 Rue de Bellechasse. Founded in the 13th century, the Cistercian Abbey of Penthemont once served as a culturally vibrant retreat for the ladies of the French aristocracy. Today, this storied address on the Left Bank of Paris stands as a symbol of Yves Saint Laurent’s enduring connection to its Rive Gauche roots. In 2018, Yves Saint Laurent forged a new chapter: the inauguration of the Maison’s relocated headquarters and showrooms within this meticulously restored monument. The very stones seem to whisper tales of centuries past, seamlessly fusing history with fashion.
THE OLFACTION
To conjure the essence of these hallowed halls, a rare and precious note permeates the air – the elemi, a subtle reminder of centuries-old incense rituals. Sourced from the Philippines, this resinous ingredient with its cold, spicy nuances, embodies the duality of a historic abbey transformed into a modern hub of creativity.
Complementing the elemi, a deep, sensual oud graces through the halls, a tribute to the building's spiritual past, its mysterious, peppery aroma intertwining with the present. A touch of mineral saltiness evokes the lingering echoes of devotion, a nod to the abbey’s sacred history.
LE VESTIAIRE DES PARFUMS HOME COLLECTION
Le Vestiaire des Parfums extends its olfactory ritual beyond the skin to create a uniquely YSL ambiance within the home. A trip through time to the emblematic destinations of Yves Saint Laurent through the evocative scents of its candles.
