Baobab Collection Essaouria Fragrance Diffuser Orientalist Collection

Product description

Essaouria: a gateway to the sea

The coastal town of Essaouira, formerly known as Mogador, is an outstanding example of a fortified city dating back to the mid-18th century.

As an international trading port, Essaouira was used by many traders from Africa. The camel caravans unloaded their precious cargo, which was then transported by sea to Europe and the Americas.

A multicultural and multi-faith trading centre, Essaouira remains a place steeped in history and a must-visit. The sublimated glass of the Essaouira candle and its diffuser is tinted pink. The city is immersed in the photographer’s magic at sunset. You can see the city’s walls and the impressive homogeneity of its architecture.

The soft hues imagined by the artist are almost reminiscent of the Impressionism.

Fragrance Notes

The floral fragrance of the candle and 500 ml diffuser, with its notes of hyacinth, lily and almond blossom, is in perfect harmony with the softness of the decoration on the glass.

by Serge Anton

Serge Anton has been part of the brand’s advertising campaigns, engaging with talent for a longtime now.

Baobab Collection and Serge Anton share a love for Africa and Morocco.It was during a trip, inspired by a chance conversation, that the idea came up. Corinne Bensahel, artistic director of Baobab Collection, fell in love with a photograph of Marrakech shot by Serge Anton and asked him if she could transpose it onto glass. The test surpassed all of their expectations, and it was then that this collection began to take shape, combining archival photos of Essaouira with new shots of the Koutoubia or the kasbahs of Skoura. All images are signed by Serge Anton in the spirit of orientalist paintings, a masterful result that delights the soul. In fact, the sales of these candles and diffusers will support Actions@Village and the reconstruction of schools and sanitary blocks in the devastated villages of the Atlas.
