Think the world doesn’t need another candle?


Think again. Think clean, think green, think Ecoya; a luxury candle with a very modern M.O.

Ecoya is the elegant, new eco-friendly candle range designed to ignite a new love affair, perfuming your living spaces with its Fragrances of Passion.

For every mood there is an aroma to uplift, inspire and indulge in. Revel in Sinful Harmony, a sensual caress to the senses scented with warm vanilla bean.


Delight in and find inner-peace with the incense-like calming aura of Temple Lure’s fig and cassis blend. Or tune in to the late night serenade of Smokey Sax, a harmony of sandalwood and amber notes, before waking yourself with the energising Lady Lust, a blend of mango and white tea for passionate moments.


In all, 12 tantalising choices comprise Ecoya’s luxurious ‘Fragrances of Passion’ range, redolent of delicious days and dramatic nights.


Ecoya’s stylishly simple appearance suits all spaces, transforming the everyday into the extraordinary, making minimalism magic, or complementing the most maximalist decor with an essential element.


Our sense of smell – more than any other – is truly evocative and opens up a total sensory experience. It’s as simple as lighting the right candle … Ecoya’s Fragrances of Passion.


You can also relax in the knowledge that your choice is not only richly romantic and truly transporting, but also environmentally right.


Make the switch to a greener, cleaner candle made from natural soy waxes, rather than paraffin produced by the petroleum industry. Natural wax has a longer burn time and emits less carbon soot into our precious atmosphere.


With wicks made from 100 per cent pure cotton (lead-free), and perfumes drawn from fragrance and essential oils, the Ecoya candle is also completely biodegradable. Also, it’s not commonly known but soy waxes burn for a third longer than paraffin and produces 90 per cent less soot.


You’ll never look back; Ecoya is not only the natural alternative to toxic paraffins, it also envelops all who enter its “throw” in a longer lasting scent.


More than four years and countless hours were spent perfecting blends and ensuring Ecoya’s “throw” (the distance away from the flame that the scent distributes) is remarkable.


“The trick is to get the scent spread as wide as possible with minimal amount of variance in scent, and even if I say so myself, we did a pretty good job,” says Tony Proutsos, Ecoya’s proud candle cook


Ecoya is currently a success story in Australia, Japan and more recently in New Zealand at discerning outlets.


The hand-poured candles are available for the home in seven sizes of pillar priced from $24.95, a generous sized round tin ($25.95) and other forms including a contemporary metro jar ($39.95). The largest candle, standing at 23cm, costs $75 and burns for an amazing 150 hours.


A smaller tinned travel candle means you can take these addictive little luxuries wherever you go, bringing a first class touch to your journeying.


Ecoya’s Fragrances of Passion range … match your mood, set the scene, close your eyes and be transported. Inhale the difference and ignite a lasting love affair.


Ecoya candles are available from selected specialty gift stores nationwide.
