There’s a Slow North candle scent out there for everyone — we wholeheartedly believe that. But could some pairings be written in the stars? We definitely think so!
Whether you read your Costar app religiously or aren’t even sure what your Rising sign means, this article will serve as a foolproof guide for finding the best candle scent according to your zodiac sign. Check it out!
Zesty and fiery, Aries brings an undeniably electric energy to any room they enter — just like this candle does. Grapefruit and spearmint essential oils evoke pure happiness, energizing any room with cheery, euphoric vibes. It’s always a party when Aries is around, and this candle is the perfect complement to the celebratory mood. This scent pairs best with winning arguments, spicy food, sparklers, and accidentally falling in love with your arch nemesis.
Earthy and warm, the Lavender + Cedar candle is the perfect scent for Tauruses who just want to stay at home in sweatpants with a snuggle buddy (so, all of them?). Just like Taurus, this scent is soothing and grounding, with calming and herbaceous floral notes and a woody, sweet undertone. Works well with tea and a good book, foraging for mushrooms, and unapologetically moving at your own pace.
Cleansing, inspiring, fresh, and renewing: that’s how we would describe our gorgeous Lemongrass + Tangerine scent, and it also happens to be exactly how we’d describe Gemini. This summery scent is perfect for celebrating those Gemini May and June birthdays. It also pairs well with razor-sharp intellect, extreme versatility, unfiltered opinions, and a hilarious sense of humor.
Oh, Cancer. How do we love thee? Let us count the ways. Gentle, intuitive Cancer is sure to love our custom blend of geranium essential oil and rosehip seed oil. This scent is nostalgic of spring with an uplifting, pleasant floral aroma. Plays nice with an aversion to vulnerability, emotional packmuling, classic art, and feeling absolutely everything all at once.
Hello Sunshine’s custom blend of grapefruit, lime, and geranium essential oils — designed to vitalize and refresh your senses — is bold and dazzling, just like Leo. Leos are fearless followers of their hearts and rooted firmly in their authenticity. This scent is best matched with a relentless pursuit of admiration, puffing your chest, and brandishing your pride like a blade at your hip.
This scent is as soothing and transcendent as Virgos are to their closest friends. A calming blend of botanicals, Eucalyptus + Lavender nods to Virgo’s uncanny ability to always figure out where they are amid the chaos. Blame it on their grounded spirit, maybe? Eucalyptus + Lavender is best experienced with an uncanny sense of spatial awareness, losing your keys, and working overtime to fix everyone’s life except your own.
This patchouli, cinnamon, and black pepper essential oil blend is both spicy and meditative, emitting a dark, captivating undertone. Sound familiar, Scorpio? Moonglow is the perfect scent to pair with your brooding and unsettling absence of thanatophobia. Bathe in the glow of this candle and feel the soft animal of your body return to you — and remember that your inner light is just as powerful as your inner shadows.
The world is your playground, Sagittarius, and you’ve always been able to see the forest for the trees. Our blend of fir, pine, and patchouli essential oils is calming and grounding, with bright notes of citrus and a woody, resinous undertone. It’s exactly the right scent to call your adventurous spirit back home.
Capricorn probably isn’t reading this because they’re too busy setting goals and hitting them. This sweet, herbal blend naturally uplifts any space — exactly how Capricorn does when they’re around. Capricorn should light this candle whenever they’re tired of being the best at everything they do, arguing with their inner monologue, or scheming how to avoid being the center of attention.
Mysterious and unyielding, the ocean is a powerful force that is often misunderstood — just like our dear Aquarius friends. Of The Sea captures the calm and chaos of the ocean with notes of eucalyptus, lavender, and peppermint. It’s the perfect scent for name-dropping that obscure French philosopher, plotting your next escape from reality, self-isolation, or for refusing to admit you actually do have feelings.
Relaxing and romantic, Midnight Garden pairs perfectly with the wide-eyed wonder of dreamy Pisces. Herbaceous floral notes complement this candle’s complex, spicy undertones. This scent is best paired with getting lost in a daydream, seeing angel numbers everywhere, and wondering out loud to yourself, “Why can’t we all just be a little bit nicer to each other?”
