“Smells like Christmas!!!”
I don’t know how it’s possible for a candle to smell exactly like Christmas, but this one does! I was searching for a cozy scent for Christmas and picked this one out, not sure what to expect. My package arrived today and the moment I smelled it I felt the nostalgia and coziness of Christmas wrapped up into one candle. It’s perfect—I can’t wait to use it this year!

「クリスマスに向けて毎日幸せ気分♪」
アメリカに住んでいる時からクリスマスが大好きで、気分をさらに上げるキャンドルを探していたところInstagramで見つけて即購入。届いてからは毎日気分に合わせて違うキャンドルを焚いていますが、どれも素敵で毎日楽しんでいます♪ 初めてのノースキャンドルでしたが、もっといろんな香りも購入したいと思いました!

“Excellent variety of Xmas smells”
The first candle I opened, Santa’s Workshop, made me want to cry from nostalgia. It smells like an American mall at Christmas time. All of the scents are spot on and multi-layered. Each of these 12 candles is completely unique, yet they all encapsulate the Christmas vibe. I can’t pick a favorite because they all make me happy. Well done.

“Feel the Holidays all year round.”
Whether you’re gifting for Christmas or just want to feel holiday cheer, these candles are a lovely addition to winter and remind you of a Western Christmas. The evergreen notes of Christmas Tree bring out the true scent of a pine tree. They capture the nostalgic warmth of the season all year round. Thank you.

「もみの木の香り」
クリスマスに友人と点灯しました。部屋の電飾をつけた中でも楽しめました。インテリアとしてもとても良く映えます。ビンの絵が可愛いです。

“Christmas in a jar.”
This candle scent is amazing! If you want that “Christmas Tree” scent to go with your plastic tree—or to create a Christmasy atmosphere—this is the candle. The smell is incredible and lingers well after you blow it out. I’m extremely satisfied and will definitely get the large size next!
– Brandt

“BEST EVER – CHANGED MY LIFE”
This candle is the best candle I have ever smelled. No exaggeration. It makes me feel so much more at home in Japan! I moved here a year ago and was devastated to find there weren’t any fun scented candles. I was beyond excited to find North Candles on Instagram. Better than any candle I’ve bought in the US—can’t say enough good things about my experience!

  • Can’t decide? Go with value

    The set is the no-risk way to find your favorites and save up to 50% off with free shipping. Also perfect for sharing and as gifts!

  • Small or Large?

    Small is lighter, great for trying out or small rooms. Large is bolder for full-room cozy. New to candles? Consider the small. Strong-scented lover? Go with the Large.

  • Strong enough? Overpowering?

    Our candles are made for a strong, room-filling aroma that lingers beautifully to set the tone in your home for fall without being overpowering.

Western Style Scents, Japanese Handmade Quality

HOKKAIDO + CANADA = NORTH CANDLES

Mami & Alex, a couple from Hokkaido and Canada, started North Candles in their Tokyo apartment in 2018. Then after making western style candles in Canada and eventually relocating to Mami’s hometown of Hokkaido, they brought back their signature style of scented candles to Japan. Today they make every candle in an old restaurant they restored into a candle workshop in Hokkaido.
About North Candles

FAQ

When will my Christmas Candle order ship?

Christmas candle orders will begin shipping from November 10th. Orders are processed in the order they are received. You’ll get a tracking number once your package is on its way.

How strong are the scented candles? Is it overwhelming?

Our candles are designed for strong, room-filling throw that lingers beautifully — but never overpowering. Small size: lighter & more subtle (great for testing or small spaces). Large size: bolder & more noticeable (ideal for full-room cozy). Many customers say it’s “just right” — strong enough to enjoy, clean enough for daily use. If you’re sensitive, start with Small and if you prefer strong scents, we recommend the Large size.

What are the burn times and sizes?

Small: ~15–20 hours per candle (5.5 × 6 cm) — perfect for testing, gifting or smaller rooms. Large: ~35–45 hours per candle (7 × 7.5 cm) — longer burn, stronger throw for bigger spaces and those who prefer strong scented candles. 6-set total: Up to 120 hrs (Small) / Up to 260 hrs (Large). 12-set total: Up to 240 hrs (Small) / Up to 500 hrs (Large). Tip: First burn 1–2 hours to prevent tunneling and maximize throw.

Can I return or exchange my order?

Returns are accepted for unused candles within 30 days of delivery.

Are your candles natural? What’s the difference between fragrance and essential oil candles?

All our candles use 100% soy wax and plastic-free packaging. Our fragrance candles use premium fragrance oils for stronger, unique scents. For a 100% plant-based, natural aroma, choose our essential oil candles.

Do you ship anywhere in Japan?

Yes, we ship to all addresses in Japan.

Is international shipping available?

Contact us at mami@northcandles.jp or via chat for rates and options. Domestic Japan orders remain our fastest.

How do I care for my candles safely?

Simple tips for best burn & safety: • Trim wick to 1/4 inch (6mm) before each lighting. • Burn 1–2 hours first time for even melt pool (prevents tunneling). • Keep away from drafts, pets, children, and flammables. • Never leave burning unattended. • Do not burn more than 4 hours at a time.

Why choose the Set over singles?

Singles are great for one scent, but the Set (and other bundles) saves you up to 50% with curated variety and easier discovery. It’s the no-guesswork way to find your favorites. Many repeat customers started here!
