Palo Santo: Embracing the Spirit of Semana Santa
For Rocio, Semana Santa in Malaga, Spain, holds a special place in her heart. What she cherishes most about this religious celebration is the way it unites people from all walks of life, coming together for the same purpose. One of the most important components of Semana Santa is the religious processions. Each day of the week, processionals parade throughout the city, and the air fills with the hypnotizing sounds of drums and coronets from the marching bands.
As the candles illuminate the path, endless rows of penitents slowly walk alongside lavish "Pasos" or floats, adorned with religious statues depicting scenes from the gospels related to the Passion of Jesus Christ and the Sorrows of the Virgin Mary. Rocio is captivated by the intricate craftsmanship of these floats, carefully crafted by renowned Spanish artists and owned by the brotherhoods for centuries. The entire experience is a symphony of faith, music, and devotion, leaving an indelible mark on her soul. With the Palo Santo fragrance, she seeks to capture the spirit of this religious celebration and transport you to the vibrant streets of Malaga during Semana Santa.
Vanilla: Candlelit Date Nights Under Starlit Skies
Romantic date nights have always been a cherished part of Rocio and Christina's love story. They fondly recall evenings spent in their backyard on warm summer nights, illuminated by the soft glow of candlelight. The Vanilla fragrance brings back memories of these enchanting moments, where they would share laughter, stories, and dreams under the twinkling stars.
The warmth of the vanilla scent in the air created an intimate ambiance, making each date night a celebration of love and togetherness.

Oak Moss and Amber: Wanderlust and the Call of Nature
The Oak Moss and Amber fragrance embodies the wanderlust that drives Rocio and Christina to explore the world's breathtaking landscapes. Among their favorite hikes is one in northern Wisconsin, where they meandered past cascading waterfalls until they reached a cliff overlooking Lake Superior. The view from the cliff was nothing short of awe-inspiring, and the earthy warmth of oakmoss mingled with the scent of amber, creating a sense of wonder and reverence for nature.
Another unforgettable hike took them to a lush forest in Arkansas, where vibrant greenery was sprinkled with purple and white flowers hanging from trees. As they journeyed through the woods, the Oak Moss and Amber scent seemed to harmonize with the natural surroundings, forging a deep connection with the great outdoors. Let this fragrance awaken the wanderlust in you, and with every whiff, embrace the call of nature's boundless beauty.
White Sage and Lavender: A Sanctuary of Self-Care
Amidst the busyness of life, Rocio has always treasured moments of self-care, and White Sage and Lavender play a key role in creating a sanctuary for her well-being. One of her favorite wellness rituals is a warm bubble bath, accompanied by the soft glow of candles and soothing music. This ritual allows her to unwind, release tension, and connect with her inner self.
With the White Sage and Lavender fragrance, she seeks to share the joy of self-nurturing and the significance of prioritizing "me" time. As you light this candle, immerse yourself in a sanctuary of self-care, letting the herbal bouquet of sage and the calming scent of lavender envelop your senses, rejuvenating your mind, body, and soul.
