Smells Like Spells Incantations Scented Candle Western Europe

This INCANTATIONS scented candle collection was created by Lithuanian designer duo Smells Like Spells. They were inspired by incantation texts from around the world. After collecting a large collection of texts, they entrusted their visual interpretation to Lithuania's most famous screenprint artist MP Vilutis.

The candle itself is made entirely of natural soy wax , which does not emit toxic chemical compounds when burning; burns three times longer than regular candles; leaves no stains, spilled wax is easy to clean; does not heat up because it burns at a lower temperature than paraffin, the candle spreads the scent slowly and evenly. No other natural wax (e.g. palm) is used. The result is a truly environmentally friendly product that helps protect natural resources and does not harm the user in any way.

When making a candle, soy wax is melted at a very low temperature, and then, when the wax begins to cool, a mixture of essential and aromatic oils is added, which preserves the unique aroma unchanged. Candles are made in several stages: when the first layer of wax has completely cooled, the next layer comes. This allows you to avoid air bubbles in the candle, its surface becomes ideally smooth, and the candle's burning time is extended.

The candle is placed in a handmade porcelain jar with gilded details. Each jar is unique, no two are the same. After burning the candle, you can wash the jar with hot water and reuse it in the home. The jars are made of food-grade porcelain. Each jar is marked with a unique authenticity number , which contains the jar number / number of copies in the edition / edition number.

The candle is packaged in an exclusive suede bag.

The word INCANTATIONS comes from the Latin incantare, meaning "to consecrate, to enchant, to bewitch, to charm". It forms the basis of the word "enchant", with deep linguistic roots dating back to Proto-Indo-European. An incantation is a magical formula intended to attract magical powers into our lives. The formula can be spoken or chanted. The words of an incantation are often spoken with intonation and emphasis on the words spoken. The tone and rhyme of how the words are pronounced, and the placement of the words used in the formula, can vary depending on the desired outcome of the magical effect.

Every detail of a candle is connected to four main elements: wax – Earth, melted wax – Water, scent – ​​Air and of course Fire. That is why every spell or magical ritual is accompanied by candlelight. It is believed that the right choice of color, scent and magical symbols, accompanied by incantation texts, will attract magical powers into our daily routine.

The magical scent of this candle is based on ancient customs, traditions and the belief that each plant or scent has its own specific magical purpose. The main notes complement each other with aromatherapeutic properties, creating a beautiful fragrant pyramid, where each scent has its place in harmony with the other scents.

"The hand must be a perfect instrument that automatically creates an image coming from the subconscious to the conscious mind. Only then is creativity a spiritual activity and not some craft. The artist is a slave to his own artistic nature, his ability to accumulate images that come from somewhere. He is pregnant with these images. Should we try to explain incantations? No. Incantations are a mystery in themselves."
