Absinthe is a perennial shrub native to continental, temperate zones in Europe, Asia and North Africa. Called 'the green fairy,' absinthe was reputed to provide creative powers, and before being banned was the infamous muse that inspired writers like Emile Zola and Paul Verlaine, painters Vincent Van Gogh and Edgar Degas.

In collaboration with the Paris national Museum of natural History, Carrière Frères highlights plants that are unusual, exotic and packed with history. Find out more about this partnership.

Our Commitment

Each of our candles and botanical palets are formulated with 100% vegetable wax, from European organic rapeseed. Each candle is made according to ancient expertise and handcrafted in our workshop in Normandy, France.
To ensure optimal combustion, the diameter and weave of our wicks are adapted to suit each fragrance.
Made in Italy, the glass used in our candles is partly recycled and 100% recyclable.
To limit the packaging’s environmental impact, CF opts for boxes made from 100% recycled and recyclable FSC paper, labels made from FSC paper (40% recycled) and printing using vegetable-based inks.

Instructions

Never leave a lit candle unattended, and do not burn one for more than 2 hours at a time.
Always burn a candle until the entire surface liquifies, and allow it to solidify before re-lighting.
Keep the wick trimmed to ¼ inch at all times, to avoid any black smoke. Gently re-position the wick while the wax is still molten.
Always protect the surface on which the candle rests.
Once only ¼ inch of wax remains, blow out the candle and let it fully cool before safely discarding it.
