WHY CHOOSE SANTO & HIRAYA?
We pour our hearts into creating candles that are not only visually stunning but also fill your space with enchanting Philippines-inspired fragrances, transforming any room into a sanctuary of tranquility.
Each of our handcrafted candles is a labor of love, meticulously crafted using the finest ingredients and materials available. We take immense pride in utilizing 100% natural coconut wax, which not only burns beautifully but also aligns with our commitment to sustainability. Our candles feature cross wooden wicks that hold symbolic significance and provide a mesmerizing flickering warmth.
As the wax melts, it creates a captivating shimmer, adding an extra touch of allure to the overall experience. We blend our candles with carefully selected botanical, herbal, and culinary scents using premium fragrance oils. These scents beautifully encapsulate the opulence and magnificence of the Philippines, reflecting our brand's intentions. When you light one of our candles, it creates an atmosphere that embraces your senses and uplifts your soul.
Speaking of sustainability, it's a cause close to our hearts. We believe in treading lightly on this beautiful planet we call home. That's why we choose reusable vessels for our candle jar and carefully curate ingredients and materials that are earth friendly. We want you to enjoy our candles knowing that your purchase supports a greener future.
