To celebrate its 30th anniversary, Maison Pierre Marcolini is joining forces with another Belgian house of excellence, Baobab Collection, to combine their expertise in a unique and sensorial collaboration.
Use : The quality of our scented candles involves a specific burning ritual. Each time the candle is burned, it is important to wait until the entire surface liquefies before extinguishing the candle. This will prevent the formation of craters which are unattractive and make burning more difficult. The first time you light your candle, it will always burn for longer than on subsequent occasions. Allow time for the first layer of wax to liquefy completely. The length of time this takes varies depending on the size of the candle. Never burn the last 1cm (1/2 inch) of wax to avoid flames burning against the glass.
Baobab Collection candles are crafted using a premium blend of waxes and high-quality fragrances. Each fragrance composition may include a combination of essential oils (e.g., eucalyptus, geranium, citrus, etc.) and fragrance components (e.g., benzyl salicylate, linalool, limonene, geraniol, eucalyptol, etc.). The exact composition varies by fragrance, and specific details can be found on the individual product packaging. Some of the candles contain naturally occurring fragrance allergens that may cause reactions in sensitive individuals. These may include, but are not limited to, linalool (found in floral and herbal scents, may cause irritation), limonene (derived from citrus oils, a potential sensitizer), geraniol (present in rose and geranium oils, may cause skin sensitivity), eucalyptol (found in eucalyptus oil, may cause irritation in sensitive individuals), and benzyl salicylate (common in floral fragrances, a potential allergen). For a full list of allergens in a specific scent, please refer to the product label or contact Baobab Collection customer service team.

Introducing Our Best Candle Gift Set Yet
Three decades ago, the superlative Maison Pierre Marcolini released its first bean-to-bar collection. It was 1995 and the rest of the world was turning chocolate-making into an industrial pursuit. Our founding confectioner went in the opposite direction by hand-picking every bean and hazelnut in the range. As a brand, we're celebrating our 30-year anniversary by looking back at everything that made our eponymous house special. We have chosen to collaborate with another Belgian brand to create our delectable cocoa gift set candle. Join us in blowing out 30 chocolatey candles.
The Collaboration
We’re proud to announce our new best candle gift set yet thanks to the talents of Baobab Collection. With the help of the Belgian house, we’ve combined three candles into a single travel-sized, limited-edition gift box that carries the fragrance of home. Maison Pierre Marcolini sources some of its rarest and most exquisite cocoa beans in India, Peru, and Madagascar, so it’s only natural that we’d take their inspiration for our candle gift set products. Travel through the world’s finest chocolatey destinations on a scent-based adventure. We've combined chocolate with flowers, colognes, and forbidden spices.
Taste and scent are intimately connected. You can’t fully enjoy one without the other, so at Maison Pierre Marcolini, we take aroma seriously. Every ingredient in our artisanal collection is carefully considered for its sensory profile. Each harmonious treat appeals to the emotions in its own unique way. Our 30th anniversary candle set includes three aromatic profiles:
India Candle This limited edition candle celebrates the light, bright sensory landscape of Kerala, bringing a touch of that atmosphere into your home. It combines the deep, floral fragrance of those with fruity lychee and spicy musk. Rose’s soft notes dominate the cold throw. When the wax melts, spice and fruit dominate the hot throw, achieving a refreshing, honeyed note. Musk acts as the base note, leaving a spicy, lingering impression.
Peru Candle This fruity, floral scent is a celebration of the rare and special white criollo cocoa beans. The cold throw is dominated by energetic lime, but when lit, a discrete jasmine aroma comes through. The hot throw is the fresh, but the lingering, woody scent of vetiver. Together, all these notes seem to speak of something forbidden, yet precious.
Madagascar Candle This creation takes you on a sensory adventure through Red Island’s Ambanja. This special place is rich in cacao, mangroves, and ylang-ylang flowers. An intense, peppery patchouli wood opens up when the candle is lit. Once you've experienced this fragrance, you'll realise why Baobab Collection has created so many best selling products.
The Origin
Origin is an important element of Maison Pierre Marcolini. The source of every coffee bean determines its flavour profile and thus the ingredients that work with it. Our limited-edition candle set is inspired by several of the chocolate bean origins our brand uses in our ganache. We've developed a fragrance that evolves as the candle wax melts. It's the perfect addition to a long, luxurious bath or lazy evening by the fire.
Explore Our Origins The Plumier Grand Crus chocolate ganache boxes make the ideal gifts. They combine the citrus, floral, and smoky flavours of Peru, Cuba, and Sao Tome. For a more indulgent experience, choose the larger Malline Grand Grus box. It’s the perfect accompaniment to your chocolate box candle.
The Best Chocolate Bars to Combine With Your Candle
We’d like you to explore the scents and tastes of single-origin candles and chocolates, so we suggest our chocolate tablets. If you’re building a gift box, combine it with your candle gift set for her or him. The Madagascar tablet is rich in both colour and fragrance. Its fruit and ylang-ylang notes are the perfect choice for the ceramic candle set. The India tablet merges fresh, tangy, bitter flavours. The Peru tablet is crafted from white cocoa beans, so it’s a smooth, light scent that combines beautifully with the fragrance of flowers.
You know Maison Pierre Marcolini for its chocolate, and now you can add an altogether different sensory experience through our 30th anniversary candle gift set. Enjoy scent and flavour together. We certainly will.
