Mal de Ojo Candle
The evil-eye bracelet, in candle form.
In so many of our homes, a small blue eye hung by the door — a quiet reminder that your light is yours to keep. Mal de Ojo brings that tradition to the entryway, the desk and the dinner table: sage, lavender, clove and a whisper of coal, hand-poured in the USA.
Orders over $75 ship free. Two Mal de Ojo candles — one for you, one for someone you love — clear the line.
Earthy, grounding, a little bold.
- Top note · Sage — herbal and clarifying, the scent of a freshly opened window.
- Middle notes · Lavender & clove — lavender brings balance; clove adds a warm, spiced depth that feels like company.
- Base note · Coal — smoky and bold, the note that anchors the whole room.
Sophisticated enough for the living room, familiar enough for abuela’s kitchen. It reads as a grown-up, unisex fragrance — the kind people ask about.
A tradition you can hold.
Keep it in the entryway, the way the bracelet hung by the door — a welcome for everyone who walks in.
Light it the night before a meeting, a launch, a first date. A few slow breaths and one simple intention: my light is mine to keep.
A new apartment, a long week, a house full of guests who finally left. Open a window, light Mal de Ojo, and let the room reset.
Four candles. One ritual.
Paz, Prosperidad, Mal de Ojo and Vitalidad — peace, worth, spirit and health. Four full-size candles for $139, which is $57 less than buying them one by one, and shipping is on us.

The Mal de Ojo affirmation
Questions, answered.
Is this an evil-eye protection candle?
It is inspired by the tradition of the evil eye — a symbol many of us grew up with. We don’t promise outcomes; we promise a beautiful, grounding fragrance and a moment of intention. The meaning is yours.
What does it smell like?
Sage up front, lavender and clove in the middle, coal at the base. Earthy and a little smoky — unisex, and strong enough to notice from the next room without taking over.
What is it made of?
8 oz of plant-based coconut and apricot wax, vegan, with about a 50-hour burn time, hand-poured in the USA.
How much is shipping?
Standard shipping in the US is free on orders of $75 or more. Two candles get you there — so does the Protection Bundle.
Is this the official Walter Mercado candle?
Yes. This is The Official Walter Mercado Store, and the collection is created by Walter’s family — the stewards of his legacy.
