Description
Baobab Collection candles are created using high quality raw materials sourced in Europe. The glass is crafted in Poland, the mineral wax comes from Germany, and the scents are created and perfected in Grasse. Each Baobab candle is hand-poured in multiple pouring phases into glass containers that have been hand-blown by master craftsmen, making each candle completely unique.
A new limited-edition collection created in collaboration with artist and photographer Serge Anton, Orientalist features 3 candles, each decorated with pictures by Anton like orientalist canvases. Sales of candles from the Orientalist collection will support Actions@Village and the reconstruction of schools and sanitary blocks in the devastated villages of the Atlas.
The coastal town of Essaouira is an outstanding example of a fortified city, dating back to the mid-18th century. As an international trading port, Essaouira was used by many traders from Africa. A multicultural and multi-faith trading center, Essaouira remains a place steeped in history and a must-visit.
The glass of the Essaouira candle is tinted pink, reflecting a view of the city immersed in the photographer’s magic at sunset, showcasing the city’s walls and the impressive homogeneity of its architecture. The soft hues imagined by the artist are almost reminiscent of Impressionism, while the floral fragrance of the candle with its notes of lily, hyacinth, and almond blossom is in perfect harmony with the softness of the decoration on the glass.
Hyacinth, Lily, Almond Blossom: The floral fragrance of the scented candle, with its notes of hyacinth, lily and almond blossom, is in perfect harmony with the softness of the decoration on the glass.
About the Brand
Working with the tagline, “Where luxury home fragrance meets creative design,” Baobab Collection first saw the light of day in 2002, in the enchanting landscape of Tanzania, a country rich in intense colors and bewitching perfumes. The collections are inspired by faraway places and wild nature, but it is in Belgium that the new creations are dreamed up. The Baobab Collection finds unlimited inspirations through the wonders of the world. Each candle tells a new story: the name, the perfume, and the materials chosen are closely linked. The Belgian brand is committed to certain values including high-quality craftsmanship and respect for the environment. Like the baobab tree in the African savannah which inspired its name, each candle from Baobab makes an impression and stands out from the ordinary. Baobab Collection’s candles are known for their size and original designs. They are extraordinary objects providing an olfactory and aesthetic experience, crafted using materials that are carefully selected and sourced across Europe and created by the best European artisans.
