Why are we so obsessed with LOHN candles?

Why are we so obsessed with LOHN candles?

In the ancient world, trade routes developed in part around the pursuit of perfume ingredients and materials like amber, tea and spices. Taking inspiration from these ancient roads, LOHN creates scents designed to evoke a time, a place, a journey.

LOHN was founded in 2018 by two Canadian women, Katerina Juskey and Victoria Mierzwa, who have always had an obsession with scent and its nostalgic powers. 

With an education in chemical engineering and years of experience in the beauty industry, they sought to create candles that tell a deeper story. Their mission is to create sophisticated, high-quality candles with scents inspired by ancient journeys. 

Every LOHN product is handmade by their small team of makers in a 2,000 square foot studio located just outside of Toronto, Ontario.

 

Made in small batches, LOHN Core Collection candles are scented with a blend of essential oils, natural and phthalate-free synthetic fragrances. LOHN Forage Collection candles and diffuser blends are made with 100% essential oils.

LOHN’s blend of organic coconut and soy wax allows their candles to burn clean and slow, fill your space with scent, and solidify with a smooth finish.

 

Every candle is made with a cotton wick, hand poured into a printed glass or debossed ceramic, and packaged beautifully with recyclable materials. Every product is vegan, cruelty-free, paraben-free and phthalate-free.

Candle Care & Safety

Burn on a stable, heat-safe surface away from drafts and flammable materials. Keep in sight, away from children and pets. During use, glass may become warm. Allow to cool before handling. Do not burn for more than 3 hours at a time. Keep wick centered and wax free of debris. Trim wick to ¼” before each lighting. Discontinue use when ¼” of wax remains. 

Want to reuse your candle glass? Wipe out the remaining wax, use a spoon to pry out the wick base, and wash it out with soap and water.
