Diptyque priced its 2026 Enchanted Forest advent calendar at $525 when the collection went live on October 8.

The 25-day calendar, the first product in the brand's 2026 holiday rollout, packs 25 scented items into a wooden box designed with artist Jean-Simon Roch, a creator known for interactive wooden mechanisms and theatrical installations. The collaboration yields a decorative box covered with handcrafted wooden animal and tree figurines.

What is inside the 25-day calendar?

Diptyque withheld the full contents. The brand confirmed the lineup includes:

• Scented candles in Sapin and Feu de Bois
• Eau de parfums, including Orphéon and Fleur de Peau
• Body care products
• Refillable lip balms

Each product ships in a wooden box inspired by traditional woodworking.

Who designed the decorative box?

Jean-Simon Roch built his reputation on interactive wooden mechanisms and theatrical installations. The decorative box housing the calendar represents the centerpiece of his Diptyque collaboration, with wooden animal and tree figurines placed across the entire surface.

What else ships in the 2026 holiday collection?

The calendar anchors a broader holiday release. Diptyque plans to extend the Enchanted Forest theme across additional launches in the coming weeks, including the return of the Beis scent in new formats, candle toppers, and decorative items. The Marie Claire writer described the candle toppers as products "any home-scent and decor lover would freak out over."

The writer, a self-described Diptyque aficionado, called the brand's seasonal launches a personal trigger. "When the brand drops its seasonal items every year, I go a little feral," the writer said.

What products did the Marie Claire writer recommend?

For shoppers who cannot wait for the full rollout, the writer named three staples:

• Diptyque Vanille Classic Candle
• Diptyque Orphéon Perfumed Body Lotion
• Diptyque Fleur de Peau Eau de Parfum

"This body lotion is just as strong as the eau de parfum," the writer said of the Orphéon lotion. Of Fleur de Peau, the writer added: "I love this perfume so much that I dream about it sometimes."

What is the price context?

At $525, the calendar sits at the upper end of the prestige holiday gifting market. Diptyque's 2025 edition used a fairytale theme. The 2026 calendar marks the second consecutive year the brand has built its holiday release around a narrative concept.

The Marie Claire writer defended the price tag. "As a Diptyque aficionado, I've never tried a product from this brand that I disliked, so I'm confident it's worth the price," the writer said.

Diptyque has not confirmed international pricing or a release date for markets outside the October 8 launch. The rest of the Enchanted Forest collection will roll out in the coming weeks, giving the brand a roughly two-month window to convert early holiday shoppers before December.
