Malaysian-born Chris Lim, who has worked with luxury brands including Ralph Lauren, Giorgio Armani, Hugo Boss, Versace and Gucci, has created his own fragrance and body care brand, Maraca, in New Zealand.
Roseraie, the latest fragrance in the Maraca candle range, has a blend of rose, violet and blackcurrant in its top notes, white tea and green leaves in its mid-notes, and base notes of musk, jasmine and cedarwood.
The candle has a lead-free cotton wick and a total burning time of up to 45 hours. It retails for NZ$54·95, while other scents range from NZ$49·95 to NZ$54·95, at selected retailers nationally and online at www.maracanewzealand.com. A stockists’ list can be found on the website.
Lim has had a life-long love of fragrance since his childhood and his first foray with Maraca saw a collection of candles, diffusers and body care products. He created the scents, which are formulated in France, while the candles are made in New Zealand using natural soy wax.
