Maison Louis Marie was inspired by founder Marie du Petit Thouars’ family connection to botanicals. Her grandfather, Louis Marie Aubert du Petit Thouars, was a pioneering botanical explorer of Madagascar, La Reunion and the Mauritius islands, who brought back a collection of over 2000 plant specimens to France when he returned after a decade of exile amid the French Revolution. Years later, Marie embraces this legacy by crafting scents that preserve the unique terroir of each fragrance ingredient, and products that are non-toxic and created with sustainable methods.

Candle care tips: trim the wick to ¼” before lighting for a clean burn. Allow the wax to melt completely to the edges - especially on the first burn - to prevent uneven wax. Never leave a lit candle unattended.
