Product Insights
No.04 Bois de Balincourt is the creamy sandalwood anchor of Maison Louis Marie's woody trio, named after the founder's family estate and inspired by her childhood forest walks, making it the brand's flagship scent available in every product format and a retailer-confirmed best-seller. The candle delivers a strong, clean hot throw that fills a standard room, burning 50–60 hours on a soy wax base that produces up to 90% less soot than paraffin and uses phthalate-free fragrance for pure scent projection, though it requires careful wick trimming and an initial two-hour burn for even performance, and the fragrance is a natural-and-synthetic blend rather than pure essential oils.

Amazing scent!
This is my 2nd purchase of this same candle very woody, earthy scent. Close to the much more expensive Le Labo SANTAL 26 from NYC!
Un parfum frais, unique. Belle trouvaille!
J'apprécie sa présentation sobre qui fait place à l'unicité du contenu de son parfum. Je ferme les yeux, hume son odeur et me retrouve instantanément dans une parfumerie en France. L'ai recommandé autour de moi.
Luxurious Scent
The candle was a gift and has not yet been used, but it arrived in perfect condition, and the texture and scent are luxurious.
Odeur trop forte.
Cire de couleur bizarre. Trop onéreuse pour la qualité recherchée,
