Smells Like Spells Freyr: Patchouli Bergamot + Cedar Rune Candle

Why We Love This

In Norse Mythology Freyr was the patron of fertility and prosperity. This candle was made to set the intention of bringing financial gain and lasting wealth into life. We love this idea, and even more, the fragrance of patchouli, bergamot and cedar it releases.

Story

The multilayered fragrance of this hand-made candle comes from a special blend of pure essential oils. Runes are sacred symbols from an ancient alphabet, said to have magical and mysterious meanings. On this particular candle, the rune is meant to attract financial fortune, protect material wealth, dodge unexpected expenses, and deflect the jealousy of others. Smells like Spells believes the candle’s effect begins when the receiver opens the package, as it comes with a detailed description of the carved rune and its purpose. Made of natural soy wax, this candle burns for 25 hours at a lower temperature than paraffin, so it works its charms without getting hot, staining, or emitting any toxic chemical compounds.
