HOLLOW TREE CANDLES & OILS

Eco-Friendly and Sustainable

Coconut wax is derived from a renewable resource – the coconut. The process of obtaining the wax is both sustainable and eco-friendly, causing minimal deforestation and environmental impact compared to other waxes.

Clean Burning

One of the standout qualities of coconut wax is its clean-burning properties. It produces a low amount of soot, ensuring that it burns cleaner than many other waxes. This means less potential for soot residue on walls or ceilings and a healthier indoor environment.

Excellent Scent Throw

Coconut wax has an exceptional ability to hold onto and release fragrance, known as scent throw. This means candles made from coconut wax often distribute fragrance more efficiently and evenly than those made from other waxes.

Longer Burn Time

Due to its unique molecular structure, coconut wax tends to burn slower and often lasts longer than candles made from paraffin or soy wax, offering better value for money.

Smooth Texture

Candles made from coconut wax often have a smooth, creamy appearance, making them aesthetically pleasing. This texture also contributes to a more consistent burn.

Vegan and Cruelty-Free

As it's derived from coconuts, coconut wax is a vegan product. It doesn't involve the use of animal products or by-products, and its production doesn't harm animals.

Cleaner, More Natural Origin

Our fragrances are built from premium plant derived ingredients rather than synthetic aroma compounds. We work with natural sources like flowers, leaves, bark, berries, roots, resins, concretes and absolutes. This allows the scent to feel closer to nature, more nuanced, and more connected to the raw materials it comes from.

A More Complex and Layered Scent Profile

Plant derived oils carry depth and variation that synthetic fragrances often flatten. Instead of a single linear note, you experience evolving layers as the candle burns. This creates a more atmospheric, living scent experience in your space.

Thoughtfully Sourced Ingredients

Our supplier in France sources raw botanical materials from around the world. Each ingredient is carefully selected and transformed through traditional extraction methods like distillation and solvent extraction. This approach preserves the integrity of the plant and its aromatic character.

Better Connection to Nature

We believe scent should feel alive and grounded. Plant derived oils hold the memory of their origin, whether it is a resin from a tree, petals from a flower, or bark from a forest. This creates a more authentic sensory experience compared to lab created fragrance molecules.

Crafted for Quality and Performance

Natural extracts and essential oil blends are carefully balanced to ensure a refined scent throw in wax. While synthetic fragrances are designed for intensity alone, our blends are crafted for both performance and elegance, so the scent feels present without overwhelming the space.

A More Intentional Formulation Process

Working with plant derived materials requires more precision and care. Each blend is composed with intention, layering different natural extracts to achieve harmony, balance, and depth. Nothing is rushed or artificially engineered for effect.

No Overpowering Artificial Notes

Synthetic fragrance oils can sometimes carry sharp or overly strong top notes. Our plant derived approach avoids that artificial edge, resulting in scents that feel softer, more wearable in the home, and easier on the senses over time.
