Our Fischersund scented candle is crafted with care, using recycled soy wax, an eco-friendly cotton wick, and premium fragrance oils. Each candle is hand-crafted in Reykjavík and is hand-poured into a custom hand-blown glass vessel.

Our inaugural and best-selling fragrance, inspired by Old Reykjavík, evokes nostalgia and heritage. It's rooted in Jónsi's memories of working alongside our father on the big ships that frequented the old harbor. This scent, No. 23 captures the essence of oil-stained hands, a feeling of industry and salty, ocean air mixed with the aroma of pipe tobacco.

Smoke in the air and tarred telephone poles,
Anis seeds and black pepper, tail freshly mowed grass and tobacco leaves.
Dead flowers bow to the ground.
In the breeze, the feminine fountain pine tickles the top of your skull. 
A beached whale is about to explode.

Reykur í loftinu og tjargaðir símastaurar.
Anísfræ og svartur pipar fylgja nýslegnu
grasi og tóbakslaufum.
Dauð blóm hneigja sig. Í golunni kitlar
kvenleg Lindifuran vitin.
Í fjöru er strandaður rotnandi hvalur.

Julian ★★★★★

Honestly, the smell is unlike anything I’ve tried—that leather and salt combo is weirdly addictive, and the cotton wick burns clean without any of that smoky aftertaste. Got it burning in my living room and the amber note is strong but not overpowering at all.

Sofia X. ★★★★★

The recycled soy wax burns so evenly I've barely seen any tunneling, and the smoke and salt notes come through without being overpowering. I lit it while reading and the whole room smelled like a coastal walk in the best way.

Kevin ★★★★★

Burned it for a couple hours and the smoke and seaweed notes really come through, not at all like the usual sweet candle. The recycled soy wax melts evenly and the wick held up without any soot.
