APOLLO CANDLE

Apollo condenses the magic of a walk through the forest after a spring storm: the grass still damp, leaves shaking the last drops of rain, and a freshly cut bouquet of flowers that fills the air with a sense of freshness. A candle that turns any space into a green, luminous, serene refuge—perfect for accompanying deep-cleansing rituals and repairing skin care.

An olfactory landscape: forest after the rain and flowers at daybreak

Apollo’s fragrance is built like a living, enveloping scene. The opening, dominated by intense green grass, lifts the atmosphere with the feeling of freshly washed nature. At the heart, a discreet and elegant ylang-ylang weaves together with the more sparkling facet of orange blossom, evoking wet petals and light filtering through the trees’ canopies. In the background, a powerful bamboo unfurls its earthier, more vegetal side, softened by a sweet, powdery veil of amber that brings warmth and depth.

• Top · Green grass: fresh, damp herbal notes that evoke freshly cut lawn and the forest after the rain.
• Heart · Ylang-ylang, orange blossom: a luminous, elegant floral accord, with the floral creaminess of ylang-ylang and the citrus sparkle of orange blossom.
• Base · Amber, bamboo: an earthy bed, slightly sweet and powdery, that wraps the space in sophisticated warmth.

Atmosphere · The perfect ally for your cleansing and renewal rituals

Apollo has been designed to accompany skin-cleansing, exfoliating, and balancing routines. Its green, clean, and lightly floral character perfectly pairs with cosmetic gestures that purify, renew, and soothe:

• Sensory cleansing: light it while using the Recovering Foaming Cleanser to turn the act of cleansing into a reconnection ritual.
• Acidic renewal: its fresh, focused accord harmonizes with the Global Exfoliating Acid Lotion, accompanying the “reset” of the skin texture.
• Soothing and hydration: combine its fragrance with the Calming Phytoactive Mist to create a perfectly balanced atmosphere between skin and surroundings.

So the Apollo candle is an olfactory extension of treatments that cleanse, renew, and calm the skin—creating a coherent, deeply sensory environment for every routine.

How to use ritual · How to enjoy Apollo at its fullest splendor

To make the most of Apollo’s full olfactory and aesthetic potential, it’s recommended to incorporate it into your daily or weekly care ritual with small care gestures:

• Place the candle on a stable, heat-resistant surface, away from curtains, papers, or other flammable materials.
• On the first lighting, allow the wax to melt all the way to the container’s edges to form a uniform pool; this prevents tunneling and ensures an even burn.
• Before each new use, trim the wick slightly to maintain a clean, controlled flame, reducing smoke and improving burn quality.
• Light Apollo a few minutes before starting your routine (cleansing, exfoliating, or calming mist) so the space becomes infused with its green-floral accord.
• Do not move the candle while the wax is liquid, and always extinguish it carefully—preferably using a snuffer or by gently blowing it out.

Recommended scenarios · A climate of clarity and serenity

Apolo is the ideal candle for those who want an atmosphere that suggests cleanliness, oxygenation, and active calm:

• Bathroom or dressing table during your cleaning and exfoliation routine.
• Work or study spaces where you’re looking for mental freshness and the feeling of new air.
• Bedroom, in the moments before your evening care routine, to mark the transition from day to rest.

Its cool, herbaceous, and lightly powdery character makes it a versatile, elegant, and not-at-all overpowering fragrance—perfect for people who prefer candles that complement rather than dominate.

Precautions for use

As a home fragrance/perfumery product, Apolo requires responsible use:

• Carefully follow the warnings on the pictograms included on the package.
• Always keep the candle out of the reach of children.
• Do not ingest the product. In case of an accident, contact the Toxicological Information Medical Service (phone 91 562 04 20).
• Avoid releasing it directly into the environment.
• Dispose of the contents and the container through the selective waste collection system enabled in your municipality.

Storage and presentation

Apolo is part of the sensory universe of Arturo Alba, where each candle is an atmospheric object designed to blend into high-aesthetics spaces. To preserve its qualities:

• Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sources of heat and intense sunlight.
• Keep the candle protected from dust when it isn’t lit, to ensure a clean burn and optimal fragrance diffusion.

Apolo candle turns every cleaning and renewal routine into an act of contemplation: an intimate stroll through a newly awakened forest, where skin and surroundings breathe at the same pace.
