You better watch out, ‘Fir Baby!’ is coming to town!

This cosy season, La Bougie is bringing some magic across the Irish Sea with Fir Baby! A decadent winter candle that will whisk you back to forgotten memories of Christmases past – when trees were real, the hands that decorated them were fragrant with the resin from the branches, and brandy-plumped currants waited patiently to be stirred into the pudding.

As the cold and frosty air lingers outside, lounge by an inviting wood-burning fire, enjoying notes of fir resin, musk, and currants coming together to add the finishing touch to your festivities.

Fir Baby! is not just a candle; it is a festive and sensory experience that brings the classic components of the season together in one mysterious and sexy fragrance, so different yet so familiar that you can’t quite put your finger on it… in a limited-edition burgundy jar!

La Bougie is the crown jewel of Irish fragrance and candle-making, renowned by connoisseurs and perfume lovers alike. Their dedication to creating only the finest quality candles, diffusers, and eau de parfum has earned them a revered place on the shelves of luxury stores like Brown Thomas, Avoca, and Kilkenny Design. Their iconic Mission Fig scent, a favourite of the legendary Adare Manor, is a bestseller.

The story of La Bougie began in 2012, when Lucy Hagerty, after a remarkable career as a Royal Chef, embarked on a new journey to craft the perfect candle. Believing deeply in the intimate connection between taste and smell, Lucy spent seven years mastering the art of perfumery, and her passion blossomed into the proud launch of La Bougie.

Every La Bougie fragrance is created entirely in its West Cork perfumery, using prized aromatics and botanical oils from around the world. This artisanal method sets it apart from the mass production of high-street brands.
Some of La Bougie’s signature scents include:

• Mission Fig – Parched Earth, Fig Leaves, Blond Wood
• Honeysuckle & Sea Salt - Seagrass, Honeysuckle, White Musk
• Pomelo 1830 – Gin, Grapefruit, Coriander
• Tuscan Bergamot – Bergamot, Sage, Lavender
• Desert Rose – Rose Maroc, Teak, Oud

With an already devoted following in Ireland and the US and the opening of their luxurious boutique in Lymington in 2022, La Bougie is making significant steps in its expansion into the UK.
