Cocoa Maison

$38.00

Warm comfort with quiet depth.

Cocoa Maison is a grounding, lived-in fragrance designed to feel familiar without fading into the background. It brings warmth to a room and settles softly into the space, creating an atmosphere that feels intentional and comforting. This is a candle meant for daily use — steady, refined, and quietly indulgent. Cocoa Maison is a love letter to the women who taught us what softness felt like. Poured into a rich cocoa-apricot crème wax, this fragrance warms the room the same way cocoa butter warmed our skin as kids — slow, golden, familiar. It’s the scent that drifted through bedrooms on slow mornings and lingered in the halls long after the last hug.

Fragrance Profile

The Experience
Best enjoyed during slow mornings, evenings in, or moments that call for ease and familiarity.

Details

  • Matte black ceramic vessel

  • Coco apricot wax

  • Natural wooden wick

  • Clean, slow burn

  • Hand-poured in small batches

Candle Care & Cure Time

Each Ashé & Heir candle is freshly poured and allowed to cure before leaving our studio to ensure optimal scent throw and burn quality. Upon arrival, we recommend allowing your candle to rest for an additional 48–72 hours before lighting. This brief rest period allows the fragrance to fully settle into the wax and enhances the overall experience, in the event of varied temperatures during transit.

The Story Behind Cocoa Maison

The scent of home, reimagined.

Cocoa Maison is a love letter to the women who taught us what softness felt like. This fragrance warms the room the same way cocoa butter warmed our skin as kids — slow, golden, familiar. It’s the scent that drifted through bedrooms on slow mornings and lingered in the halls long after the last hug.

This blend melts into the air like heritage itself: creamy cocoa butter, golden amber, vanilla tonka, and soft woods — notes that feel like moisturized skin under warm light; like ease you didn’t have to earn.

And somewhere in this fragrance, there’s always Grandma. How she scooped the cocoa butter with the back of her fingernail. How she rubbed it into our skin first — small circles, patient hands — teaching us what it meant to care for ourselves by caring for us. How she taught us to rub our elbows, “don’t miss the corners,” how to get the knees good, how softness was a ritual, not a luxury.

That memory lives here.

Cocoa Maison carries the after-bath glow, the passed-down rituals, the cultural knowing we didn’t have language for then but honor instinctively now. It’s nostalgia, but grown. Familiar, but refined. A modern house fragrance rooted in Black memory and elevated with intention.

Warm. Golden. Comforting.

Cocoa Maison — for the moments that feel like memory.
