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.
The Woods collection of scented candles pays homage in the very structure of its hand-blown glass, to the magic of forests. Trees reach for the sky and forests bring us back to basics, like a benevolent refuge in which to take walks throughout the seasons. The magic of glass, handled by the dexterity of Baobab craftsmen, breathes life into vertical lines reminiscent of the beauty of nature. The three candles in this collection are named after the mythical forests of Brocéliande, Risoud, and Sherwood.
Head for the Swiss border and pay tribute to Europe’s largest forest: the Risoud Forest. It is a spruce forest and acts as a natural border between Switzerland and France. It is here that the world’s great luthiers seek out their wood to carve the finest instruments. To make the glass for candles, a glowing ball is dipped in natural pigments that react randomly. It is then delicately covered with another strand of glass, placed vertically. It is only when the glass is blown that the decoration comes to life, revealing the vertical lines that run through the glass in this collection. The background color, born of contact between molten glass and powdered pigments, evolves according to temperature. Of them all, red remains the most difficult to obtain consistently. The deep red glass of the Risoud scented candles references the richness of precious stones.
Cumin, Plum, Patchouli: The fragrance opens with the warm intensity of cumin — a spicy, enveloping note that evokes the depth of the forest. At the heart, plum brings a dark, velvety fruitiness, before giving way to a rich base of patchouli with deep woody accents. A mysterious and elegant composition, just like the Risoud Forest itself: wild, precious, and full of character.
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.
