The Morocco Kingdom of Light Gift Set pairs Assouline’s evocative volume Morocco, Kingdom of Light with its corresponding scented candle, creating a sensory journey into one of the world’s most captivating destinations. Through Oliver Pilcher’s luminous photography and an introduction by Moroccan writer and musician Ariel Wizman, the book explores Morocco’s vibrant streets, storied medinas, and majestic palaces, capturing the spirit that has inspired artists since Eugène Delacroix first encountered the “Kingdom of Light.”
Complementing the visual journey, the candle evokes the country’s rich atmosphere with notes of spiced ginger and creamy fig milk, recalling bustling markets, while cedarwood from the Atlas Mountains blends with smoky incense and sandalwood before settling into a warm base of vanilla cream and black amber. Presented in a custom green glass vessel and accompanied by the beautifully crafted Assouline volume, this gift set transforms any space into a refined escape, celebrating the light, color, and timeless allure of Morocco.

Anatomy of the Scent
A candle’s fragrance unfolds in three distinct layers, each one playing a vital role in how the scent evolves over time.
Notes de tête (Top Notes) – The initial impression. Bright, refreshing, and light, these are the first scents to fill the air as the candle burns.
Notes de cœur (Heart Notes) – The heart of the fragrance. As the top notes fade, these emerge to define the fragrance’s true character.
Notes de fond (Base Notes) – The lasting presence. Warm, deep, and rich, these notes unfold last, lingering in the space long after the flame is extinguished.

Book
Handle with Clean, Dry Hands: Always use clean, dry hands when handling your book to avoid transferring oils or dirt onto the pages and cover.
Avoid Direct Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight may cause fading or discoloration of the cover and pages.
Store in a Cool, Dry Place: Humidity and moisture can damage both the paper and binding. Store books upright on a flat surface, away from heat sources.
Dust Regularly: Use a soft, dry cloth or feather duster to gently remove dust from the cover and page edges.
Use Caution When Opening: Do not force the spine flat, especially on new books, as this may damage the binding.
Keep Away from Liquids and Food: Avoid placing books near food or beverages to prevent spills and stains.
Candle
Before lighting, remove all packaging materials and ensure the candle is free of debris such as matches and wick trimmings.
To get the most out of your candle, burn it for 2-3 hours at a time to maintain an even melt pool. Be mindful that the vessel will become hot while the candle is burning. Always allow the candle to cool fully before relighting, and avoid allowing the flame to touch the sides of the vessel.
If you notice any black smoke, trim the wick to no more than 5mm to maintain a clean and steady burn.
Always protect the surface beneath your candle (with a wood or ceramic plate, for example), and avoid burning it all the way to the bottom. Place it away from drafty areas to ensure an even burn.
Following these guidelines will help prevent personal injury and property damage while ensuring a longer-lasting, more fragrant experience.
