Concrète Candle

We are surrounded by scent. City streets and green fields radiate a fragrance that sometimes intermingles. When developing this perfume, LVA nose and creative director Aldo Parise, took inspiration from the wild cityscape. Combining a metallic accord with a balanced set of dense florals and ambers gives this candle a glow only found in the rugged downtown core. 

The vessel is natural cement (which can vary from light to dark grey). Each candle is poured once ordered, so expect a 2- to 3-day delay for shipping.   

240 grams/40 hour burn time 

Notes: Metallic bergamot, pink peppercorn wind through fields of lush orchids. Black sand and amber create an unyielding scent of concrete after the rain. The concrete jungle contained!

Each fragrance is formulated in Montreal (we live there). Les Vides Anges uses a proprietary blend of hemp, coconut, and soy waxes for the ultimate hot and cold throw (fancy candle terms for smelling amazing whether lit or not). Phthalate-free, vegan, paraben-free and never tested on animals.

How to use: Safety first. Never leave a candle burning unattended, and don’t burn for more than 4 hours at a time. Firstly trim the wick! Each time before lighting, trim your candle wick to 1/4”. Allow the wax to melt to the edges of the container each burn to prevent pooling. Ensure that your candle is placed on a heat-safe surface.

Do not allow wick trimmings, dust, or other materials to accumulate in the wax pool. Stop burning your candle when only 1/4” of wax remains. Once the candle is finished, reuse or recycle the cement container.
