SCENTED CANDLE SACRED TREES MASSASSO

The Massasso scented candle is covered in an original design depicting a baobab forest in a mix of lilac and brown. The design, the result of our collaboration with Uniwax in Abidjan, is an original graphic in the great tradition of figurative African wax. The design, printed using natural pigments, is applied to the glass using a very special sublimation method produced in Italy. Using a fusion method, the design is then integrated into the glass. This know-how allows a certain transparency to be maintained; under the impulse of the flame, the design comes to life like a lamp.

The commune of Massasso, in the Woroba region, is the location of our first vegetable garden, called «Le Jardin de Baobab Collection».

Know-how

Sublimation involves printing the design with natural pigments on a biodegradable film. This is then applied around the glass and heated so that it adheres to the material. The flame can be seen through the design, which lights up like a lamp, bringing the candle to life.

Use

The quality of our scented candles involves a specific burning ritual. Each time the candle is burned, it is important to wait until the entire surface liquefies before extinguishing the candle. This will prevent the formation of craters which are unattractive and make burning more difficult. The first time you light your candle, it will always burn for longer than on subsequent occasions. Allow time for the first layer of wax to liquefy completely. The length of time this takes varies depending on the size of the candle.

Never burn the last 1cm (1/2 inch) of wax to avoid flames burning against the glass.

Ingredients

In compliance with the latest regulations, we provide full ingredient transparency for all our scented candles. Our candles are crafted using a premium blend of waxes and high-quality fragrances. Each fragrance composition may include a combination of essential oils (e.g., eucalyptus, geranium, citrus, etc.) and fragrance components (e.g., benzyl salicylate, linalool, limonene, geraniol, eucalyptol, etc.). The exact composition varies by fragrance, and specific details can be found on the individual product packaging. Some of our candles contain naturally occurring fragrance allergens that may cause reactions in sensitive individuals. These may include, but are not limited to, linalool (found in floral and herbal scents, may cause irritation), limonene (derived from citrus oils, a potential sensitizer), geraniol (present in rose and geranium oils, may cause skin sensitivity), eucalyptol (found in eucalyptus oil, may cause irritation in sensitive individuals), and benzyl salicylate (common in floral fragrances, a potential allergen). For a full list of allergens in a specific scent, please refer to the product label or contact our customer service team.
