Lemaire Bois d'Orage - Bougie Apothicaire

Bois d’Orage marks the first collaboration between Mad et Len and the French fashion house LEMAIRE, led by Christophe Lemaire and Sarah-Linh Tran. True to LEMAIRE’s timeless, quietly sophisticated aesthetic, the candle reflects a world of natural textures, soft tones, and elegant restraint.

Its name—Bois d’Orage, or “storm wood”—captures a palette of shifting skies, drifting shadows, and weathered grain. Mad et Len interprets this atmosphere through a refined blend of Japanese hinoki, Haitian vetiver, and Indonesian patchouli, composing a fragrance that is fresh yet deep, serene yet intense.

Evocative of LEMAIRE’s fluid silhouettes and nuanced color harmonies, Bois d’Orage feels both elemental and elevated—an enveloping scent shaped by simplicity, craftsmanship, and a shared pursuit of purity.

ABOUT THE BRAND

Mad et Len captures the scents of memories through objects crafted by artisans and experimental fragrances. The nature surrounding their workshop in the south of France is the main source of inspiration for creating perfumes, candles, and other decorative pieces that always express a certain raw sophistication.
By using seasonal ingredients and respecting the cycles of nature, Mad et Len rekindles the apothecary tradition, the quintessence of artisanal perfumery, to produce its fragrances by hand.

Mad et Len places great importance on objects that are entirely crafted from rolled steel by artisans using ancestral know-how without resorting to any industrial techniques. Through its fragrances and objects, Mad et Len offers a raw, timeless, and multisensory experience that awakens our senses in everyday life.
