Read full stylist notes
The client who picks up the Etna candle while waiting for a product and asks where it's from. It becomes a gift for a friend who loves Italian things, or it goes home with them for their own shelf. Either way, the story behind it is half the reason it sells. Rica is Italy’s number one professional wax brand, made in Italy with decades of formulation expertise. Their home fragrance collection brings the same Italian craftsmanship and sense of place to a different category — scented candles inspired by the specific geography of Sicily.

Questions? We get them.
Good to know.
The questions we hear most about this product. If yours isn’t here, a real stylist will answer.
Ask ModaWhat does Rica Etna Scented Candle smell like?
Floral amber — an opening of Sicilian wildflowers and green accords that softens into warm amber, light woods, musk, and resinous depth. It's complex and warm rather than sweet or fresh. Think wild Sicilian hillside rather than a floral bouquet.
How long does Rica Etna Scented Candle burn?
Burn time varies with wick maintenance, draught, and burn duration. As a general guide, 160g candles typically provide 30-40 hours of burn time. Trimming the wick to 5mm before each burn extends the life of the candle and prevents soot.
Is Rica Etna a good gift?
Yes — beautifully. The keepsake vessel makes it feel substantial and considered, the Italian story behind the fragrance gives it something to talk about, and the scent is distinctive enough to be memorable. A strong choice for anyone who appreciates Italian quality or loves fragrance.
What's the difference between Rica Etna, Mothia, and Taormina candles?
Three Sicilian locations, three very different fragrance profiles: Etna is warm and complex (floral amber), Mothia is layered and intriguing (oriental marine), Taormina is bright and joyful (sweet citrus). Etna is the richest, Taormina is the freshest, Mothia is the most unexpected.
What is the keepsake vessel on Rica candles?
A considered vessel designed to be repurposed once the candle burns down — as a small storage jar, a pen holder, a plant pot, or simply kept on a shelf for its own aesthetic value. Part of what makes the Rica candles feel more considered than a standard candle.
