Since its inception in 1994, Votivo has built a worldwide reputation for high quality home fragrances and distinctive packaging. Each Votivo product is a culmination of care and commitment to detail. Each candle is hand-crafted. Each tissue is hand-wrapped. Each pewter seal is hand-pressed. Each candle is specially made. At the heart of every Votivo candle is a unique fragrance meticulously formulated and layered to reflect depth, richness, and complexity. Votivo candles are famous for their ability to quickly fill a room with wonderful fragrances. As one of the original luxury candle lines, Votivo passionately pursues excellence in the art of candle making. The signature fragrance, Red Currant, has Earthy Green, Galbanum and Tart Citrus top notes; Cassis and Tropical Fruit middle notes and a Fruity Musk base. This famous fragrance is available in the Aromatic collection candle, room mist, reed difuser and travel tins, and the Dalian, Colour and Holiday collections candles. Votivo is renowned for creating complex fragrances and every one layers base, middle and top notes. Top notes are the scents that are perceived immediately. They consist of small, light molecules that evaporate quickly. Top notes form a person’s initial impression of a fragrance. Middle notes create the scent that emerges just prior to when the top notes dissipate. The middle note compounds form the “heart” or main body of a fragrance. The base notes are the scent of a fragrance that appears close to the departure of the middle notes. The base and middle notes together are the main theme of a fragrance.
