Smells Like Spells Mimir: Lavender Eucalyptus + Peppermint Rune Candle

Why We Love This

In Norse mythology Mimir was the guardian of the wisdom well. This candle was made to set the intention of creating calmness and a sense of harmony, to encourage intuition and mental clarity. We love this idea, and even more, the fragrance of lavender, eucalyptus and and peppermint 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 enhance calmness, support intuitive perception, and boost clear thinking. 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.
