About me

Hi,

My name is Marjorie, but my friends call me Marjo. While you’re here, I’d love to tell you a little bit about myself.

I have a husband and four beautiful children and they’re my whole world. I’m also a lover of aromas! Carilo Creations is the product of my travels worldwide and the stories I’ve lived.  I love to travel with my own candles, remember treasured moments and re-live them whenever I wish. Time travel on demand! 

Of the places I’ve been to, Carilo is my special place. It means “green dune” and you can find it 400km from Buenos Aires, Argentina (but please don’t tell anyone!). 

Picture a forest by the ocean, filled with mysterious beauty and peacefulness. The moment you arrive in town you’re welcomed by immense pines on each side of the road. Carilo is the place where our family’s adventure began. In 2008, while my first son was taking his first steps in the distant forest, we were deciding to turn our lives upside down and move our family to the other side of the world, from the land of ‘tango’ to the warm and exotic shores of Australia. A new adventure, a new dream to fulfil…

Carilo Creations was officially born in 2021, but I have always created candles for family and friends. I’ve decided to embark on this new adventure with my friend Nathalie. She is a talented graphic designer and I genuinely believe she has captured these intense aromas visually.  

We proudly make hand-crafted candles with high quality, natural and sustainable ingredients. I hope you’ll love them as much as I do.

Marjo
