Ntokíya

cotton | kot-n
A soft, white, downy substance consisting of the hairs or fibers attached to the seeds of plants. Ntokíya means “cotton” in Lingala.

Cotton is one of the world’s oldest shrubs native to tropical and subtropical regions. Africa’s fabric—also known as Wax Hollandais or Dutch Wax—is a resin-printed cotton fabric first manufactured in the Netherlands for Indonesians in the mid-19th century. This candle has an uplifting, reviving, and energizing scent, perfect for integrating the soul with the body on stressful days. Wax is hand-poured into a white vessel and is topped off with a dust cover.

Fragrance notes: pear, bergamot, peach blossom, amber, jasmine, cashmere, sheer vanilla, and sandalwood
