a little more about me


I created Saudade Candle after leaving my old life to settle in Folgosa, in the Douro Valley, a place that inspires serenity and authenticity in me.

Each candle I handcraft is inspired by a place I've visited in Portugal. My creations tell a story: a scent, a memory, an emotion linked to these unique places that I want to share with you.

I work with 100% natural soy wax, lead-free cotton wicks, and premium fragrances for long-lasting, fragrant candles. The jars are designed to be reusable and become true decorative objects.

With Saudade Candle, I want to offer you more than just a candle: a moment of calm, a warm atmosphere, and a little piece of Portugal in your daily life. Each flame, each scent, each detail reflects the unique emotion I felt when discovering these places.
