Christmas at the mall

Christmas Season is a relaxing scent that made me feel like I was at a Hallmark store at the mall.

Lebkuchen!

A very comforting scent, and then the spices kick in, making it very Christmassy.

Great tree scent!

This candle makes up for not having the space for a real tree. One of my favorite North Candle Christmas scents!

Our favorite one!

Christmas Hearth is our favorite of the Christmas scents. We are thrilled to have discovered this highly acceptable replacement for the discontinued Crabtree & Evelyn Noel candle of yesteryear.

Amazing

I’ve been looking for candles that smell like baked goods for agesssss. When I stumbled across an ad for North Candles on Instagram and saw that they had the candles I had been looking for, you best believe I was over the moon. Had to restrain myself from purchasing every candle I laid eyes on. The brownie scented candle is absolutely divine; I think it would be hard to find any that could top this one. The second I light it I am instantly filled with a sense of Christmas joy and the coziness and fuzzy feeling I derive from this one candle is indescribable.

Feel the Holidays all year round.

Whether you're looking for a gift for Christmas, or just want to feel the holiday cheer. These candles are a lovely addition to the winter season which will remind you of a Western Christmas. The Evergreen scents of Christmas Tree really brings out the true scent of a pine Christmas tree. These candles bring the joys of the holiday all year round and reminds us of the holiday season's nostalgic warmth. Thank you.

Instructions for Use & Scent Information

1. First Burn: Burn your candle for 1-2 hours on the first use to ensure the wax melts all the way to the edge of the jar. This helps prevent "tunneling" and allows for an even burn. 2. Recommended Lighter: To safely light your candle all the way down to the bottom, we recommend using a long-tipped lighter, such as a barbecue-style lighter. 3. Small Flame Fix: If the flame becomes small, extinguish the candle, remove any excess wax, and wait for the wax to harden before relighting. Be careful, as the wax and container will be hot. 4. Safety: Always burn your candle on a flat, stable, heat-resistant surface. Keep it away from flammable objects and never leave it unattended. Ensure the candle is out of reach of pets and children. 5. Burning Time: Do not burn your candle for more than 4 hours at one time to avoid overheating the container. Scent Information: Our essential oil candles are made with 100% plant derived essential oils that we use to make our own original essential oil blends for the scents in the candles. We also have synthetic fragrances in a variety of scents. In general the essential oil candles are a softer, more natural type of scent. Our fragrance oil candles are generally stronger scents and more exotic smelling. If you are sensitive to scents we recommend considering our essential oil candles! Small candles tend to create a smaller wax pool and have a more subtle scent. They are perfect for small spaces or those who prefer a lighter fragrance. Larger candles create a wider wax pool when burning, which allows more fragrance to be released into the air. We recommend larger candles for customers who enjoy stronger, more noticeable scents or are using them in larger spaces and are also looking for the additional value of the added burn time.
