The glass decoration on the Cocody scented candle, featuring a design of yellow baobabs on a grey background, was created in Italy using a glass sublimation method. The design is printed with natural pigments and then delicately placed around the glass, which fuses to the material. The richness of the design then comes to life with the flame, subtly revealed via its transparency.Cocody is a municipality located more than a hundred kilometers from Abidjan in Ivory Coast. It is in this forest region that the last baobab planting took place in the summer of 2024. The fragrance of the Cocody candle is an aromatic scent, with fresh notes of basil that reveal a very green jasmine, harvested in midsummer on the hills of Grasse. The quality of our scented candles involves a specific burning ritual. Each time the candle is burnt, 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: a MAX10 candle will take 3 to 4 hours, a MAX16, 5 to 6 hours, and a MAX24, 8 to 10 hours.
