Tom Ford Bitter Peach Candle 200g brings the brand's cult Private Blend fragrance Bitter Peach (2020) into a hand-poured scented candle, designed to fill a room with the same juicy, slightly boozy peach character. The composition layers Pêche de Vigne (vine peach) accord with Sicilian blood orange and cardamom on top, a heart of rum, cognac, davana and jasmine, and a creamy, resinous base of sandalwood, vanilla, tonka, benzoin and patchouli. Burn time is approximately 40 hours.

The story behind Bitter Peach
Tom Ford described Bitter Peach as "explicitly sweet and dangerously voluptuous" — a fragrance built around the moment a vine-ripened peach is at its juiciest, sweetest peak. The composition softens the sweetness with a long, slightly boozy heart of rum, cognac and davana, and the candle version translates the same arc into an at-home format that warms and projects beautifully across a medium-sized room.
Who it's for
Bitter Peach Candle suits anyone drawn to fruity-gourmand home fragrance with a slightly grown-up, cocktail-and-velvet edge. It works particularly well in living rooms, bedrooms and dining areas in autumn and winter, and pairs naturally with the matching Bitter Peach eau de parfum for a full-room layering. A natural gift for fans of the fragrance, candle collectors and lovers of Tom Ford's Private Blend universe.
How to use
- On first burn, light the candle and allow the wax to melt evenly across the entire surface — this prevents tunnelling and gives the longest possible burn life.
- Trim the cotton wick to around 5mm before each subsequent lighting to keep the flame steady and reduce smoke.
- Burn for no more than 4 hours at a time.
- Place on a stable, heat-resistant surface, away from draughts, soft furnishings and out of reach of children and pets.
- Never leave a burning candle unattended.
