"Today, I open the doors to a place where time seems to have stood still: Es Cap, on the island of Formentera in Spain. A true haven of well-being, it's a trace of summer, my beautiful escape, that I wanted to share with you. At the heart of arid vegetation sits a refurbished barn where the minimal meets the essential. Es Cap is the elegance of simplicity, the luxury of silence. It is red soil, burning white-hot from the summer sun, and radiant blue sky. It is the fragrance of a fig tree, whose voice is carried by a warm wind whipping against the cliffs south of Formentera." Francis Kurkdjian

This candle, part of the Maison Francis Kurkdjian "Homes sweet homes" collection, is presented in an elegant porcelain biscuit jar from Limoges, with a hand-painted interior. It is crafted with a blend of French mineral and vegetable wax and features a braided cotton wick to ensure its olfactory quality and its estimated optimum burn time of 55 hours.
