Orientalist Skoura Candle
Cedar, Amber, Incense
Limited Edition
(H 10) cm

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.

A tribute to the largest palm grove in southern Morocco, Skoura, stretching over 27 kilometers of trails where palm trees, douars, and kasbahs punctuate this magical and majestic territory. The kasbah immortalized by Serge Anton almost becomes like a medieval castle and the photographer’s artistic work is expressed with a finish similar to aged grey paper.

Of the three candles and diffusers in the Orientalist collection, Skoura is probably the one which comes closest to the unique texture of a museum canvas. With its sublimated glass through which the flame appears, the Skoura scented candle releases a warm and spicy fragrance of cedar, amber, and incense.

Cedar, Amber, Incense: With its sublimated glass through which the flame appears, the Skoura scented candle releases a warm, spicy fragrance of cedar, amber and incense.

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.
