Casteu Bleu Ciel Vessel

Bougie parfumée

200g (NET WT. 7.05 OZ.)

Sieste Estivale au Coeur des Champs de Lavande des Alpilles /sjɛst ɛstival o kœʁ de ʃɑ̃ də lavɑ̃d dez alpil/
English : Summer Nap in the Heart of the Lavender Fields of the Alpilles
1. Suggests a warm, fragrant rest amid the iconic lavender landscapes of the Alpilles mountains in Provence—a classic pastoral dream.

An exceptional scented candle, entirely handcrafted in France. Each precious vessel is made from fine Limoges porcelain and finished with a lustrous glaze that lends it an elegant, enamel-like sheen. The exterior showcases the distinctive Casteu Bleu Ciel pattern. Casteu means "castle" in Provençal French and evokes the elegance of grand châteaux. Indeed, the design is inspired by the cement tiles that adorned the floors of the founder's family bastide. As a child, Magali, the founder of Rose et Marius, played on these tiles. Now her childhood memories adorn the walls of this exquisite vessel. The design is further elevated by genuine platinum detailing.

This candle is the result of an extraordinary collaboration: six French artisans— each a master of their craft—bringing together generations of savoir-faire to produce a single work of art. This precious candle is a true masterpiece—born of centuries of tradition, artistry and fine craftsmanship—and proudly bears the Artisans d'Art label.

Light the candle to bring the porcelain to life and watch as the delicate vessel gradually becomes translucent, casting a soft, radiant glow as the scent of Sieste Estivale au Coeur des Champs de Lavande des Alpilles perfumes the air. Our lavender fragrance is a true labor of love. The composition was in development for many years as we worked to perfect the fragrance. You see, lavender is emblematic of Provence where it is referred to as ”blue gold.“ As the leading Haute Parfumerie house in Provence, it was essential that we produce a lavender fragrance beyond reproach. In short, only excellence would do.

The composition of our lavender fragrance draws inspiration from Magali's cherished childhood memories of summers spent weaving lavender wands with her grandmother. In Sieste Estivale au Coeur des Champs de Lavande des Alpilles, these memories are eternally preserved in olfactory form. Crafted from the finest raw materials, the fragrance blends floral notes of lavender flowers with green notes of sage leaves and chamomile blossoms resulting in a comforting and refined composition.

Tips

Burn candle for 1 to 2 hours at a time in order to allow the fragrance to diffuse properly and the entire surface of the candle to liquify. Use a candle snuffer to extinguish your candle; never blow on a candle to extinguish a flame. Once candle is extinguished and has been allowed to cool, trim cotton wick to a length of 0.5 cm. Proper wick maintenance will help to ensure that the candle burns properly and will help to prevent the accumulation of soot on the walls of the vessel. Never use melted wax for massage. Candle wax melts at high temperatures and can cause burns. May cause allergic reaction. Avoid contact with skin. Clean empty vessels in the dishwasher. Vessels may be refilled with any one of our 28 scented candle refills (sold separately).
