The Smoking Papers Box

A rare, beautifully curated offering—available in limited quantities only.

Housed in the Aedes signature gift box, this set brings together two atmospheric icons of scent and ritual, accompanied by an Aedes matchbox as a refined finishing touch.

• Mad et Len “Petits Papiers” Candle
Presented in a hand-forged black-iron vessel crafted in Morocco and Mauritania, this candle evokes the nostalgic charm of traditional scented burning papers—the delicate smoke, the soft sweetness, the intimate hush of perfumed ash.
Volutes of Belleville’s petits papiers swirl with creamy benzoin and balmy resins, creating a tender, resinous warmth that feels both comforting and quietly surreal.
A fragrant daydream unfolds: the fantasy and joie de vivre of Belleville drifting toward Paris—Pierrot, Colombine, Harlequin, and a flurry of scented confetti. Atmospheric, poetic, and transportive, this is Mad et Len’s tribute to imagination in motion.

• Santa Maria Novella Carta d’Armenia
Treasured across Europe since the 16th century, these papers perfume the air with frankincense and myrrh while effortlessly removing unwanted odors.
Simply fold one sheet into an accordion, light briefly, and let it smolder—the gentle smoke releases its warm, ancient aroma while refreshing any space.
Each box contains 18 scented papers, which may also be used unburned to fragrance drawers and closets.
