Slow North has spent years perfecting the art of the essential oil candle — candles made from nothing but pure plant-based ingredients, 100% soy wax, and the finest essential oils the botanical world has to offer. No synthetic fragrances. No artificial dyes. No compromise. The Favorites Collection brings together the six best-selling scents in the Slow North lineup — the ones that customers come back for again and again, the ones that have earned their place as crowd favorites through the simple, undeniable test of being extraordinary — in six 2 oz mini tins that are perfect for discovering new favorites, for filling every room of the home with a different botanical experience, or for giving as the most beautiful, most thoughtful candle gift available. Six candles. Six gardens. Six reasons to slow down, breathe deeply, and let the pure fragrance of the natural world fill the home.
1. Eucalyptus + Lavender — The Healing Blend
Soothing and transcendent, with soft floral notes and a balsamic, woody undertone. Eucalyptus essential oil is one of the most powerful botanical ingredients in the natural world — cool, clarifying, and deeply invigorating, it opens the airways, clears the mind, and creates an immediate sense of freshness and vitality. Used for centuries in traditional medicine and wellness practices, eucalyptus is the oil that makes every breath feel cleaner and more alive. Lavender essential oil is the most beloved botanical in the history of natural wellness — the oil that has been used since ancient times to calm the nervous system, ease anxiety, promote restful sleep, and bring a sense of peace and order to the mind and body. Together, eucalyptus and lavender create the fragrance of a healing sanctuary — the place where the body exhales and the mind goes quiet. Ingredients: Eucalyptus Essential Oil, Lavender Essential Oil, Soy Wax.
2. Rosemary + Lemon — The Clarity Blend
Sweet and herbal, with a crisp and clean scent that is as invigorating as a cold glass of water on a warm morning. Rosemary essential oil has been associated with memory, clarity, and mental focus since ancient Greece — students wore rosemary garlands during examinations, and the herb has been used ever since as the botanical ally of the clear, focused mind. It is herbaceous, slightly piney, and deeply energizing — the oil that makes the mind feel sharp and the room feel alive. Lemon essential oil is the brightest, most uplifting citrus oil available — cold-pressed from the peel of fresh lemons, it carries the clean, sparkling freshness of the fruit itself in its most concentrated form. Lemon is naturally mood-lifting, energizing, and clarifying — the oil that makes everything feel lighter and more possible. Together, rosemary and lemon create the fragrance of a productive, beautiful morning — the scent of clarity, of focus, of a mind that is ready for whatever the day brings. Ingredients: Rosemary Essential Oil, Lemon Essential Oil, Soy Wax.
3. Orange + Clove — The Warmth Blend
Warm and layered, with uplifting citrus and a subtle, grounding spice that is the very definition of cozy. Orange essential oil is the most joyful of all the citrus oils — warm, sweet, and deeply uplifting, it has been shown to reduce anxiety and elevate mood with a fragrance that is as comforting as it is bright. It is the oil of celebration, of warmth, of the kitchen in full production on a holiday morning. Clove essential oil is bold, warm, and intensely spiced — the oil of mulled cider and holiday baking, of the smells that drift through the house and make everyone want to gather in the same room. Cinnamon essential oil adds its warm, sweet, slightly sharp note to the blend — the spice that has been prized since ancient times, mentioned in Scripture alongside myrrh and frankincense as one of the most precious botanical ingredients in the world (Proverbs 7:17, Song of Solomon 4:14). Together, orange, clove, and cinnamon create the fragrance of the warmest, most welcoming home imaginable — the one where the door is always open and something wonderful is always happening. Ingredients: Orange Essential Oil, Clove Essential Oil, Cinnamon Essential Oil, Soy Wax.
4. Lavender + Cedar — The Sanctuary Blend
Calming and herbaceous, with soft floral notes and a woody, sweet undertone that grounds the fragrance in something ancient and deeply comforting. Lavender essential oil brings its legendary calming properties — the oil that has been used since biblical times to anoint, to heal, and to bring peace. Cedarwood essential oil is one of the oldest aromatherapy ingredients in human history — cedar was the wood of the Temple of Solomon, chosen by God himself for the most sacred building in Israel (1 Kings 6:9–10), prized for its beauty, its durability, and its extraordinary fragrance. Cedarwood oil is warm, woody, slightly sweet, and deeply grounding — the oil that makes a room feel like a sanctuary, like a place set apart, like somewhere sacred. Together, lavender and cedar create the fragrance of a home that is a true sanctuary — peaceful, beautiful, and set apart from the noise of the world. Ingredients: Lavender Essential Oil, Cedarwood Essential Oil, Soy Wax.
5. Forest Bathing — The Wilderness Blend
Calming and grounding, with bright notes of citrus and a woody, resinous undertone that is the fragrance of a forest at its most alive and most beautiful. Fir essential oil is the scent of the forest itself — the clean, crisp, deeply refreshing fragrance of fir trees in the cold mountain air, the oil that makes every breath feel like the first breath of a perfect morning in the wilderness. Pine needle essential oil adds its bright, slightly sharp, deeply invigorating note — the scent of pine forests that has been used for centuries to clear the mind and refresh the spirit. Patchouli essential oil grounds the entire blend with its warm, earthy, slightly sweet base note — the oil that anchors the brightness of the fir and pine in something deep and lasting, giving the fragrance the complexity and the staying power of a forest that has been growing for a thousand years. Together, fir, pine needle, and patchouli create the fragrance of the Japanese practice of shinrin-yoku — forest bathing — the deeply restorative experience of being present in the natural world, breathing its air, and letting the forest do what forests have always done for the human soul. Ingredients: Fir Essential Oil, Pine Needle Essential Oil, Patchouli Essential Oil, Soy Wax.
6. Midnight Garden — The Sacred Blend
Grounding, complex, and deeply beautiful — the fragrance of a garden at night, when the air is cool and still and the most ancient, most sacred scents rise from the earth. Lavender and Rosemary weave together in an herbaceous, calming base. Geranium essential oil adds its rich, rosy-green floral complexity — balancing, harmonizing, and deeply feminine. And Frankincense essential oil — the most sacred of all botanical ingredients, the resin that has been burned in temples and sanctuaries for thousands of years, one of the three gifts brought by the Magi to the Christ child, used in the Tabernacle and the Temple as the holy incense of God’s presence — grounds the entire blend in something that feels genuinely holy. Frankincense has been shown to have remarkable effects on the mind and spirit — reducing anxiety, promoting a sense of peace and transcendence, and creating the particular quality of stillness that the ancient world associated with the presence of the divine. This is the candle for the quiet evening, the prayer time, the moment of stillness when the day is done and the soul needs to be still and know. Ingredients: Lavender Essential Oil, Rosemary Essential Oil, Geranium Essential Oil, Frankincense Essential Oil, Soy Wax.
