For a lot of people, Diptyque makes the quintessential “status candle”: storied, French, and housed in a glass cup that's beautiful enough to have a second life as a desktop pen holder long after the wax is gone. It also smells pretty fantastic. In short, the hype is real. Citronelle is a light and layered citrus scent, with bright lemongrass and more complex citrus notes like verbena, neroli, and orange blossom. Diptyque notes that this scent is great at deterring mosquitos — chic and useful.
