Made in Co. Cork, there is a world of difference between a La Bougie candle and the mass produced aromas of the High Street. Created entirely by skilled perfumers in their West Cork Chandlery using prized aromatics and botanical oils from around the world. Each fragrance captures that elusive quality which is the hallmark of La Bougie and is matched to a custom blend of natural and mineral wax to achieve the slow, clean burn for which they are renowned.
The glass is custom etched and printed before being hand poured using a process which ensures that every drop of wax is evenly fragranced. After a period in the curing room they receive a final polish before being wrapped in tissue paper and placed in La Bougie’s signature sleeved box.
La Bougie Perfume Sage & Bitter Orange is the latest scent and designed to appeal to men as well as the women who buy gifts for them. Sage and bitter orange is unusual combining extracts from every part of the orange tree; petitgrain from the leaves and twigs, neroli from the blossom and orange peel from the fruit together with geranium. Sage and juniper are added to create a fragrance inspired by the barbershops of the creator, Lucy Hegarty’s parents’ home town in Italy.
