Borikén
“Land of the Great Lords” — name given to Puerto Rico by the Taíno people
This scent is an offering. A tribute. A remembering.
Borikén carries the warmth of ancestry and the quiet strength of home. Layers of cocoa butter and sandalwood ground the air with soft richness, while whispers of spice and coconut sweetness dance in the background—familiar, nurturing, and full of soul.
It feels like earth after rain. Like storytelling over coffee. Like pride passed down through generations.
This is not just a candle—it’s a moment of connection to something older, deeper, and beautifully ours.
