You do not hurry a mango.

Mango season does not arrive gradually. It comes all at once — fruit on the ground, fruit heavy in the trees, more than anyone can eat, passed between neighbours and given away by the bagful. Mango Time captures that abundance: ripe and golden, with a faint tartness at the edges and the easy generosity of a season that has finally arrived.

First two
Mango & Guava — the pair a Caribbean nose knows before it is told

Our candles are a high-quality soy blend — primarily soy, with some paraffin, vegetable oils and fragrance oils — formulated for an even burn and a true scent throw, with a burn time of approximately 80 hours.

They are free from lead and plastics, and contain no parabens, synthetic dyes or phthalates.

Trim the wick to ¼” before each lighting. Stop when ½” of wax remains. Keep away from draughts, and out of direct heat.

Reed diffusers are flame-free. Rotate the reeds occasionally to refresh the throw; keep the oil off finished surfaces.

Two formats, one composition: a 9 oz hand-poured candle with an approximate 80-hour burn, and a 4.25 oz reed diffuser for a flame-free, slow release.

Plant Synergy

Mango

Mangifera indica

Across the Caribbean, mango is more than a fruit — it is a season people wait for, varieties argued over, trees remembered by name and childhoods measured in summers beneath them. Its arrival signals abundance, but also familiarity: something anticipated year after year. In Mango Time, mango brings the golden ripeness at the heart of that memory.

Guava

Psidium guajava

Guava was a fruit you went looking for. The good trees were known, and the reward was fragrant pink flesh hidden beneath an unassuming green skin — sweet, slightly tart and intensely aromatic. Across the Caribbean, it found its way into jams, jellies, guava cheese and family kitchens. In Mango Time, guava brings brightness and lift, sharpening mango’s golden richness.

The Story

One arrived. One was already home.

Mango came to the Caribbean by way of war.

In 1782, a French ship carrying mango plants from Mauritius toward Saint-Domingue was captured by Captain Marshall of Admiral Rodney’s squadron and brought instead to Jamaica. There, mango took root — becoming dozens of named varieties, songs, memories, and a season generations have learned to wait for.

Guava tells an older story. A fruit of the tropical Americas, it was already part of Caribbean life long before mango arrived — familiar, fragrant, and sought out when the good trees came into fruit.

Mango Time brings the two together: one carried here by history, one already home.

The Mood

Summer, Turned Up

Mango Time is a party in full swing — sun-warm fruit, easy laughter, and the kind of evening no one wants to end.

The Feeling

Bright & playful

Juicy, warm, and full of energy — the scent of good company and long summer nights.

Where It Takes You

A golden-hour gathering

Music low, glasses full, the light going amber over the water, everyone staying late.

It smells like the height of mango season in one room. Warm, juicy, never syrupy — my favourite of the four.

Lit it before a dinner party and three people asked to take it home. The guava note is uncanny.
