A Tropical Fragrance Collaboration with The Colony Hotel, Layered with Creamy Coconut, Passion Fruit, and Warm Amber

The Pink Paradise Collection is a collaboration between LAFCO and The Colony Hotel in Palm Beach. Creamy coconut, tangy passion fruit, and smooth amber come together in a fragrance that feels tropical, warm, and effortlessly elegant.

The original Signature Candle debuted in late 2024 and sold out quickly. Demand was strong enough that LAFCO expanded the collection, adding a 3-Wick Candle and Signature Diffuser so more people could bring a piece of Palm Beach into their homes.

Every product in the collection is housed in a vibrant pink handblown glass vessel inspired by The Colony Hotel's iconic pink exterior. Each candle is made with LAFCO's soy wax blend, essential oil-based fragrance, and a 100% cotton wick. The full collection is vegan, cruelty-free, and free from phthalates, parabens, and dyes.

What Does Pink Paradise Smell Like?

At the foundation of the fragrance is creamy coconut. It's rich and velvety but never heavy or overly sweet. This isn't the coconut you associate with sunscreen or candy. It's softer and more refined, like the feeling of a warm breeze carrying the scent of fresh coconut from a nearby palm. It wraps around the room with a quiet familiarity that puts you at ease.

Layered over that coconut base is a bright burst of passion fruit. This is the note that gives Pink Paradise its energy. It's tangy, slightly floral, and adds a vibrancy that lifts the entire blend. The passion fruit keeps the fragrance feeling fresh and alive, balancing the warmth of the coconut with a sparkle that feels instantly uplifting.

Amber completes the composition with smooth, resinous warmth. It adds depth and polish without weighing the fragrance down. The amber rounds out the coconut and fruit notes, giving the scent a sense of fullness and sophistication. It's what makes the candle feel just as suited for a quiet evening as a sunny afternoon.

The overall impression is tropical without being kitschy. Clean without being stark. And luxurious in a way that feels easy and natural.

The Pink Paradise Collection

The collection offers three ways to experience this tropical fragrance, whether you prefer the ritual of lighting a scented candle or the ease of a flame-free reed diffuser.

Pink Paradise Signature Candle (15.5 oz)

The piece that started it all. Hand-poured with LAFCO's soy wax blend, essential oil-based fragrance, and a 100% cotton wick, the Signature Candle delivers up to 90 hours of clean, even burn time.

The pink handblown glass vessel mirrors The Colony Hotel's famous exterior and becomes a beautiful decorative accent once the candle is finished. This size is ideal for bedrooms, living rooms, and any space where you want a warm, tropical presence that fills the room without overwhelming it.

Pink Paradise 3-Wick Candle (30 oz)

For larger rooms or anyone who wants a bolder statement. The 3-Wick Candle delivers up to 120 hours of burn time, with three strategically placed wicks that create a full, even melt pool across the wider vessel.

The result is stronger, more consistent fragrance distribution than a single wick can provide. This makes it an especially good choice for open-concept living areas, dining rooms, entertaining spaces, or any room with high ceilings where a smaller candle might not carry as far.

The three flames also create a wider, more ambient glow that shifts the mood of a room the moment you light it.

Pink Paradise Signature Diffuser

For continuous, flame-free tropical fragrance that works in the background all day. The Signature Diffuser comes with natural hand-cut reeds in the same pink handblown glass vessel, delivering that coconut, passion fruit, and amber scent without having to light a thing.

It's a great choice for entryways, bathrooms, home offices, or any room where you want a steady layer of warmth throughout the day. Start with fewer reeds and add more over time to find the right intensity for your space. For more tips on getting the most from your diffuser, check out our guide on how reed diffusers work.

The Colony Hotel Collaboration

The Colony Hotel has been a landmark of Palm Beach since opening its doors in 1947. Its signature pink exterior, tropical prints, and poolside cabanas have made it one of the most recognized boutique hotels in the country. Over the decades, it's been redesigned and refreshed, but it has never lost the playful, vintage charm that made it famous.

The Pink Paradise fragrance was designed to capture the feeling of that world. Warm evenings under swaying palms, the ease of coastal living, and the kind of effortless glamour The Colony is known for. It's a collaboration built on a shared attention to detail and a belief that the right sensory experience can transform how a space feels.
