Product Details
Every Babel candle is named after a word that has no equivalent in English, but can be conjured through scent. Ikigai, for example – a Japanese word that represents balance, equilibrium, and purpose. This candle mirrors that feeling with a scent that is both energising and calming, with the vibrant clarity of bergamot, grapefruit and red mandarin; a peaceful floral heart of jasmine and lavender; and a stable, grounded base of vetiver and frankincense. Hand-poured in London, its blend of beeswax and coconut oil ensures a clean burn that naturally purifies the air. The FSC-certified wood wick burns evenly and produces a gentle crackling sound, while the durable stainless steel vessel, can be cleaned and reused as a tumbler or refilled with Babel candles. (Ikigai refills are available here.) This candle is exclusive to Borough Kitchen.
Please note: Stainless steel containers get hot while burning, so place the candle on a trivet or heat-proof surface.
Why we love it
'Babel candles have completely unique, well-rounded scents built from complex layers of at least eight different essential oils. Every detail is intentional, from the fully natural (not 'nature-derived') ingredients to the way beeswax and coconut oil blend purifies air as it burns. The sound of the wood wick crackling adds an extra layer of sensory experience.'
