According to legend, Russian leather first appeared at the time of the tsars. Having galloped through the endless steppes of Russia, a Cossack warrior gathered around a campfire at nightfall with his fellow riders. He then came up with the idea of rubbing his leather boots with birch bark to make them waterproof. This diffused an extraordinary smell that immediately enchanted all of the riders.

Baobab Collection tells new stories through its candles and fragrance diffusers: an invitation to a sensory journey, where the aesthetics of the object and divine fragrances come together. Baobab Collection candles and fragrance diffusers are genuine decorative pieces, handmade in Europe from the finest, most carefully selected raw materials. Fragrance is at the heart of Baobab Collection's expertise: each fragrance is meticulously crafted in Grasse, France, the world capital of fine perfumery. Every year, Baobab Collection offers exceptional fragrances, including two limited-edition collections that are sure to surprise you.

• The quality of Baobab Collection's scented candles involves a specific burning ritual. 
• Each time the candle is burnt, 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 Baobab Collection's 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.
