Illumens Abbaye Monsieur Clement Taper Diffuser

Bring aroma into your home with these beautiful taper diffusers, a highly effective way to impart fragrance into any room. More constant than potpourri and without the vigilance needed for a candle, diffusers are now a must have for the discerning individual. Illumens taper diffusers last around twelve weeks in constant use.

This collection was inspired by a visit to a 12th Century Cistercian abbey in Picardy and by a lifelong love of the French countryside. The day was balmy, the abbey breathtaking and we ate a lunch scattered with the most beautiful edible flowers.

Blended in honour of the gardener at the abbey this fresh light fragrance is reminiscent of an early morning walk through the herb garden and the sunshine on the beautiful avenue of bay trees.

The delicate hand painted packaging, an illustration of ‘fumaria officinalis’ with tiny pen and ink insects is reminiscent of a Grand Tour sketchbook and was commissioned by us from a Suffolk artist. Some of the fragrances tell the history of the abbey, whilst others are just inspired by the visit to France all those years ago.
