50 Shades of Vetiver: A scented candle where surprise becomes a choice

We've gotten used to choosing everything: the color, the scent, the detail.
With 50 shades of vetiver, Maison Joyeux deliberately did the opposite.
This limited edition vetiver scented candle is based on a simple principle: one reference, one fragrance, and a randomly assigned color.
A vetiver-scented candle, designed as an experience
The fragrance remains the same for each candle. A deep, woody and enveloping vetiver, crafted to offer an elegant, balanced and long-lasting scent.
Vetiver is known for its woody and slightly earthy notes, prized for their comforting yet sophisticated character. It blends seamlessly into any interior without ever being overpowering.
Color is not a matter of choice: the principle of 50 shades of vetiver
What varies is the color of the container.
Each candle is poured into an eco-resin container, available in several shades. The color is assigned randomly when ordering.
This surprise does not impact the fragrance, the quality, or the craftsmanship. It is an integral part of the experience.
Choosing this candle means accepting to leave room for the unexpected.
A limited edition designed for Valentine's Day
50 Shades of Vetiver is a limited edition scented candle, created for Valentine's Day.
It is aimed at those who are looking for:
an original gift idea for Valentine's Day
a handcrafted scented candle with a strong character
an elegant attention, without excess or artifice
Giving this candle as a gift is like giving a familiar scent, with a new discovery upon opening.
Create rather than give: the candle-making workshop in Melun
To extend the experience, Maison Joyeux is also offering a candle-making workshop on February 14th in Melun.
During this workshop, participants will be able to:
discover the raw materials
create their own scented candle (choice of color and fragrance)
share a creative and sensory moment
Another way to approach the candle: slower, more immersive, more personal.
Why choose a Maison Joyeux candle?
Maison Joyeux designs handcrafted scented candles, carefully made from selected materials.
Each creation is based on:
a meticulously crafted fragrance
a simple and durable design
a manufacturing process attentive to detail
50 Shades of Vetiver embodies this philosophy: do less, but better.
