Sauvignon: a white that awakens

Sauvignon is not exactly the discreet type. Citrus, freshness, and vegetal notes are part of its aromatic signature, particularly in the Loire wines that Maison Tchin Tchin drew inspiration from to imagine this fragrance.

Here, blackcurrant bud and grapefruit immediately set the tone. The perfume then becomes more vegetal with green tea and ivy, before vetiver and white musks come to prolong this sensation of freshness.

A tonic and spring-like interpretation of white wine that perfectly illustrates the approach of Maison Tchin Tchin: starting from the vocabulary of tasting to create authentic home fragrances.

Citrus fruits, green tea and fresh herbs

Sauvignon is undoubtedly one of the freshest fragrances in the collection. Its top notes combine blackcurrant bud with grapefruit, before giving way to a heart of green tea and ivy. Finally, Haitian vetiver and white musks provide structure to the base notes without weighing the fragrance down.

The result is lively, green and slightly tangy, with an almost immediate impression of freshly cut herbs and citrus zest. A great choice for those who find very vanilla-based, woody or gourmand fragrances too overpowering.

Sauvignon right down to the bottle

Like the other Maison Tchin Tchin candles, ‘Sauvignon’ doesn’t just evoke wine through its scent. Its container is itself made from a genuine recycled wine bottle, repurposed to hold 250 g of natural soya wax.

A 100 per cent cotton wick, a fragrance crafted in Grasse free from CMRs and phthalates, a cork stopper and recyclable kraft cardboard packaging round off the product. It’s a rather fitting way to bring together wine culture, perfumery and upcycling.

If you enjoy white wine varieties but are looking for something a little rounder and more enveloping, do also try the Chardonnay scented candle, which has much more amber, vanilla and woody notes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the Sauvignon candle actually smell of white wine?

No. Maison Tchin Tchin does not seek to literally replicate the scent of a glass of Sauvignon or that of alcohol. Instead, the brand uses the grape variety’s aromatic profile as a starting point to create a genuine perfume composition.

In the case of Sauvignon, the brand has focused in particular on Loire wines and their highly aromatic, fresh and herbaceous character. In the candle, this translates into notes of grapefruit, blackcurrant bud, green tea and ivy, followed by a base of vetiver and white musk.

The result therefore evokes the aromatic world of Sauvignon, but remains, above all, a fresh and herbaceous home fragrance.

What does the Sauvignon candle smell like?

Sauvignon is a fresh, invigorating and herbal fragrance. The opening notes of grapefruit give it a lively, tangy quality, whilst green tea and ivy enhance its green character. Vetiver then adds a little more structure, softened by white musks.

Maison Tchin Tchin evokes citrus zest and freshly cut herbs, with a spring-like, invigorating feel. It is therefore an excellent choice if you’re looking for a fragrance that’s distinctive but not overpowering, and if you prefer fresh compositions to sweet, vanilla-based or very woody scents.

What is the difference between Sauvignon, Viognier and Chardonnay?

These three candles are inspired by white grape varieties, but their scent profiles are very different.

Sauvignon is the freshest and most herbaceous: grapefruit, green tea, ivy and vetiver. Viognier is much fruitier and richer, with notes of apricot, flowers, exotic fruits and honey. Chardonnay has a warmer, more enveloping character, with notes of orange blossom, vanilla, sandalwood and cedar.

To put it simply: Sauvignon for freshness; Viognier for fruit and richness; Chardonnay for its roundness and amber notes.

In which room should the Sauvignon candle be used?

Thanks to its fresh, herbal profile, Sauvignon works particularly well in an open-plan kitchen, a dining room, a hallway or a living room, especially when you’re looking for a light atmosphere rather than a very enveloping scent.

Its blend of citrus, green tea and herbal notes also makes it a fragrance that’s easy to use in spring and summer. But it can actually be a great choice in winter if you want to bring something a bit livelier and brighter to your home.

As is always the case with fragrance, the choice of room is very personal: the appeal of Sauvignon lies above all in its ability to bring a sense of freshness without simply smelling of lemon.
