Zanzibar

Cloves drying on woven mats in the sun. The carved doors of Stone Town with their brass studs. Indian Ocean humidity, and the smell of the clove groves reaching you from offshore. Spice-led like Marrakesh, but sweeter, warmer, more tropical — nutmeg and clove, never coconut and pineapple.

The candle is the clove grove itself: clove, cinnamon, nutmeg and vanilla. The soap takes the bright end — lime, nutmeg and ginger — and the diffuser stays fresher and more alive with cardamom, ginger and lemongrass.

The pattern comes from the doors: a carved geometric border around a field of proud brass studs in a regular grid. Copy and scents are being finalised with the supplier — Zanzibar joins the shelf after the first three collections launch.
