As a company that's run by firefighters and employs family members of first responders, we're extra passionate about fire and candle safety. Follow these tips to get the safest, cleanest and longest-lasting burn from your candles.

  • The first burn is the most important. When lighting your candle for the first time, make sure you wait until the wax has melted evenly across the candle. By ensuring the whole surface has melted before you extinguish your candle, you'll avoid tunnelling and help your candle last longer.

  • Before re-lighting your candle, make sure you trim it to a 1/4 inch to ensure the smoothest possible burn and to ensure the flame doesn’t get too high.

  • When there’s 1/2 inch of wax left at the end of your jar, it’s time to restock! to get the very most use of those last bits of wax, you can pop your candle in the freezer, chip out the remaining wax with a spoon, and melt it in a wax melter.

  • Don’t leave your candles unattended or light them before falling asleep. a watched fire is a safe fire.

  • Make sure your candle is out of reach of kids, pets, and your friend who becomes a bit of a pyromaniac after a few drinks.

Love the nuances of scent.

I absolutely love this scent. While it leans toward the masculine it also carries scents of homeliness for me.

I can’t even begin to explain how much I love this candle! I have it burning as I type this and will be sad when it finishes.

This is a warm, comforting, and incredible scent that is one of my favourites from Shy Wolf. The first time we used it my teenager expressed, “Wow…that is the best smell ever.” Such a compliment and so true.

not my favourite

I ordered a number of different scents, all of which i really enjoyed but not this one. I like masculine scents but this is so strong, I get all the listed scents but I don't think they blend into a pleasant smell. It also sweated some oils on the surface of the candle.

What makes our candles stand apart from the rest?

shy wolf is a magic-evoking candle company that welcomes sacred moments of light for the observant, diverse and the world shifters.

Our candles are cruelty-free, 100% vegan, and made with a proprietary high quality blend of phthalate and paraben free fragrance oils - meaning you won't find the same scent anywhere else.

We use high-grade, sustainably grown soy wax in our candles. It's made from vegetables, is free from toxins, is 100% biodegradable and is a renewable source that makes for for a clean burn without harmful, black soot.

Each candle is hand-poured in small batches in our rural Ontario studio with scents and names inspired by tarot, stardust and rock n roll. We hope you enjoy burning them as much as we love creating them.
