THE CANDLES
"ALL THOSE TIMES WHEN I WANTED TO STOP THE WIND, LOCK ITS PERFUME IN A BOTTLE AND KEEP IT CLOSE TO ME FOR ETERNITY."
The candles are designed to combine traditional craftsmanship with respect for the environment. The fragrances are carefully selected and developed in the land of perfume, in Grasse. Alan Louis has his own version of scented candles, always with
a raw, refined look, an allusion to seashells and an invitation to the beach. Handmade by the artist, the pots are made of ceramic, a more or less chamotte stoneware depending on the collection, with an enamelled interior to create a barrier
between the wax and the ceramic.
The candles are produced with vegetable waxes (soya/coconut) and a plaited cotton wick.
Carefully selected natural scents evoke wood, leather, musk...
GIGI
"It was yesterday, my eyes were as brittle as glass under that glowing lead dome. I walked for twenty years. I kicked a hundred and thirty stones. I drunk four hundred and fifty-seven cups of burning air. I almost wilted, while the flowers around me looked so wise as they waited indefinitely for boredom to die.. But here we are, I didn’t tell you, I came home well, the road was good. The new sound of the key in the lock delights me and suddenly, makes me feel happy, and the laughter of the wind in the trees is exquisite...
It seems like everything has wonderfully changed, like a summer end for a sad clown. I still love the neighbor, but a little less.
PS: Thank you for the few figs on the table. The last ones of the season. They smells good, like you and your kisses on my forehead."
The fig tree exhales a unique perfume reminding us the summer coming to an end. A fragrance with a powerful heart, enveloped by notes of cedar and white rose.
This candle is made from ecru chamotte stoneware.

LES AMOURS D'OLIBAN
Limited edition
"Here, winter lasts only one day, it blows under doors. With its large, cold hands, it crawls up the fireplaces, melting slowly on the floor. In Oliban, a small village trapped in the middle of mountains, the glow of the flames illuminate the dancing snowflakes. That night, the fire defeated two lovers from their bodies. Passion in the blood, their souls were burning, bringing up their perfume through the air. When the sun came back, chasing away the chaos, only bright-red ashes and saffron scent made their fiery love remember it left. The birth of a perfume that has scented the village ever since, the scent of love."
The candle exhales notes of leather and resin evocative of winter, creating a magical and sacred atmosphere. Highlighted by notes of thyme and midnight jasmine.
This candle is made from ecru chamotte stoneware and
is embellished with a gold pearl.

LES JARDINS DE LAPA
"A huge blue sky leaning against the roofs of these large period buildings looks down on us. The gardens that surround them stretch as far as the eye can see. That's what our curious eyes tell us as we slip through the elegant gates. As the sun burns our cheeks, the leaves of the orange trees are green. The flowers dance in the gentle breeze, carrying their sweet scent to our faces."
The candle has the precious power to take us on a journey with its notes of orange blossom, small seeds of bigarade and neroli, and then to extend to powdery and musky accords.
This candle is made from white stoneware.

22 SEPTEMBRE
"The scent of memory, the beginnings of the Indian summer. Long and sweet are the evenings of September. You can see the sun slowly pierce the horizon before disappearing to distribute the day elsewhere. There is a secret desire in the mind that the journey should last forever."
Accompanied by notes of saffron, Moroccan cedar and tonka bean, the power of the oud wood retained in this candle transports us into the freshness of longing.
This candle is made from black/mahogany stoneware.

ROCHER NOIR
"After the storm, calm returns, nature is reborn even more luxuriant under the warm and piercing rays of the sun. The trees, beaten by the four winds, distil their perfume. The atmosphere is lively and gentle at the same time. The water trickles over the rock, the scene appears like a freshly cut jewel, so brilliant are the elements. At this moment, the temptation is great to discover the mystery behind this horizon hidden by the wet branches. Perhaps a rough diamond delicately placed on its throne covered with moss and bark. An imaginary place where serenity reigns as never before..."
In tribute to the most inspiring places of green nature, the earthy accords revealed in this candle by the notes of moss and wood, lead us to revisit the mythical scenes of a fairytale world. An absolute magic and mystery with which we would like to flirt as soon as we close our eyes.
This candle is made from black stoneware.
