Looking for the bougie Loewe Noël candle that keeps selling out? Here is the essential guide to scents, sizes and where to buy before the holidays.
The bougie Loewe Noël has quietly become the gift that says a lot without shouting. A ribbed terracotta jar, botanical scents that feel modern, and that instant mood shift the moment the wick is lit. Those searching now want simple answers fast: which scent to pick, what size works best, and where to find stock before December rush.
Here is the short version. Loewe’s Home Scents line launched in 2020 under creative director Jonathan Anderson, with perfumes developed by Nuria Cruelles. The candles come in three sizes – 170 g, 610 g and a statement 2.2 kg – all in glazed, pleated terracotta made in Spain. The house dates back to 1846 in Madrid and joined LVMH in 1996, so design pedigree and gift-safe quality are baked in.
Bougie Loewe Noël: why this candle hits different
Holiday candles usually lean sweet. Loewe goes green, vegetal, slightly unexpected. Think “Tomato Leaves”, “Ivy”, “Cypress Balls”, “Beetroot” – scents that smell like a winter garden instead of a dessert trolley. That shift is why these jars land on wishlists accross fashion people and design lovers every November.
The terracotta is not just pretty. It diffuses heat evenly so the pool of wax forms cleanly, helping a steady burn and a room-filling throw. The jar also earns a second life – pencil pot, mini vase, bathroom catch-all – so the present does not end when the flame does.
Scents and sizes: what to expect from a Loewe Christmas candle
The small 170 g candle suits gifting and desks. The 610 g medium anchors living rooms or open kitchens. The 2.2 kg turns up for parties or large spaces, with that sculptural look people photograph. All three mirror the same ribbed silhouette in colored glazes that match each scent family.
On fragrance, Loewe keeps it botanical. “Tomato Leaves” feels crisp and green, “Ivy” reads cool and polished, “Cypress Balls” leans resinous and festive without veering into spice, while “Beetroot” adds earthy sweetness. Seasonal editions sometimes arrive in limited colorways near December – quick to sell through in boutiques and online.
Loewe’s home line launched in 2020, then expanded across formats like room sprays and wax potpourri in subsequent seasons. The candle trio of sizes has stayed consistent so choosing is straightforward if the gift receiver already loves a particular note.

Where to buy the bougie Loewe Noël without stress
Start with Loewe’s official site and Loewe boutiques – stock updates land there first. Authorized department stores and specialty retailers carry the Home Scents line during the holidays, with limited editions rotating in early winter. Expect the most sought-after scents to move quickly between late November and mid December, so plan purchases before peak shipping cutoffs.
Checking availability across regions helps. Sizes can stagger by market, and limited colors tend to be boutique exclusives. When buying online, match the exact scent name and size in grams to avoid mix-ups – the jars look similar at a glance.
A practical note for gifting: Loewe, founded in 1846 and part of LVMH since 1996, treats packaging as part of the experience. The box presentation and the weighty terracotta feel add that premium moment under the tree, which is precisely the point of a Noël candle that doubles as decor.
