Gardenia Scented Candles — Elegance, Fragrance, and Well-being
Gardenia Scented Candles were created to transform everyday life into moments of serenity and sensory pleasure. Handmade in Portugal with natural soy wax and poured into fine stoneware glasses from the Portuguese brand Costa Nova , they combine tradition, sustainability, and a contemporary design with smooth, timeless lines.
More than just candles, these are olfactory experiences designed to balance body and mind. Each fragrance is carefully developed to create relaxing and welcoming environments — ideal for unwinding after a busy day, stimulating focus during work, or adding a sophisticated touch to gatherings and celebrations. The warm light and subtle scent fill the space with harmony and tranquility.
Durable, elegant, and conscious , these candles combine luxurious detail with environmental responsibility. When the candle is finished, the stoneware jar can be reused with your favorite fragrance using Gardenia refills. A simple and sustainable gesture that reflects the brand's philosophy: less waste, more beauty, and balance.
