Inês Scented Candle - "Flower of my Garden"
Inês Scented Candle - "Flower of my Garden"
The INÊS candle has an enveloping, slightly sweet and citrusy aroma, resulting from the combination of the intoxicating aroma of Jasmine with the freshness of Verbena. In a floral/citrus combination, its aroma captivates with its sensuality and sweetness.
A symbol of passion, the Jasmine Flower is often associated with love and beauty, immortalizing here the legendary love story of D. Pedro and D. Inês.
“See what a fresh spring waters the flowers/What tears are the water and the name loves”
When the candle is finished, you can wash the container with hot water and use it as a vase, jar or decorative object, your imagination is the limit.

CHARACTERISTICS
D.Inês de Castro – the Posthumous Queen
Galician by origin, she came to Portugal in 1340, as a lady-in-waiting to D. Constança of Castile, fiancée of Infante D. Pedro.
D. Pedro and D.ª Inês fell in love almost immediately, beginning a clandestine love affair that would prove tragic.
After the death of D. Constança, Pedro and Inês assumed their relationship and went to live in the Palace attached to the Convent of Santa Clara, located next to Quinta das Lágrimas, ordered to be built by Queen D. Isabel, D. Pedro's grandmother.
D. Afonso IV, increasingly fearful of the consequences of this relationship for the future of the Kingdom of Portugal, ordered the death of D.ª Inês. Legend has it that her crying can still be heard in the gardens of Quinta das Lágrimas, eternally searching for Pedro, her lost love.
When he ascended the throne, D. Pedro swore that he had secretly married D. Inês, naming her Queen of Portugal.
He ordered the construction of two magnificent tombs in the Monastery of Alcobaça, where he transferred the body of his beloved Inês, in 1361, from the Monastery of Santa Clara.
“See what a fresh spring waters the flowers/What tears are the water and the name loves”
Water continues to flow from the Fonte dos Amores. The water flows from the same spring and with it the flowers in the medieval garden of Pedro and Inês are once again watered.
