In 1533, Renato Bianco created a fragrance of Italian citrus and aromatic plants for Caterina de’ Medici. Known as Acqua della Regina, or Queen’s Water, this accord has remained in continuous production at the Officina since. This scented candle carries its composition: Italian citrus, petitgrain, neroli, rosemary, clove, lavender and musk. Each candle is heat-stamped with the Officina monogram and finished by hand in gold. From the Firenze 1221 collection. Ø 7,5 cm H 7 cm

How to use

Place on a heat-resistant surface before lighting. On first use, allow the wax to melt evenly across the entire surface. Trim the wick to 3-5 mm before each use and keep it centred. Do not burn for more than three hours at a time. Extinguish with a candle snuffer. Never leave unattended, and do not move while lit or while the wax remains liquid.

Emily W. ★★★★★

The citrus and neroli notes are so authentic it genuinely smells like a Tuscan garden, not a generic candle. Lit it in the hallway and the rosemary and lavender balanced it perfectly—the whole apartment felt fresher without being overpowering.

Miles ★★★★★

The blend of neroli and citrus is so bright that my whole kitchen smells like a sunny Italian morning, and it lingers for hours after I blow it out. I’ve burned it three nights in a row and the scent hasn’t faded or turned waxy, which honestly surprised me for a candle this size.

Brian ★★★★★

The rosemary and lavender come through clearly once it settles, making the whole room smell like an old Italian garden. It's the kind of scent that lingers softly for hours after I blow it out, which I genuinely didn't expect from a candle this size.
