shy wolf is a magic-evoking candle company, that welcomes sacred moments of light for the observant, diverse and world shifters.
With a name inspired by the duality that lives within us all, we believe that the small pause that lighting your candle brings is worth honouring; how a small action brings forth a steady, warm light. With fragrance blends as diverse as the folks who burn them, our candles were made for both quiet, sacred moments alone and cozy gatherings with the ones you love most.
Our 8 oz candles are made from North American soy wax and burn for 40-50 hours. Hand-poured in Grey Highlands with fine, phthalate-free fragrances.
Mulberry
Smells like a cozy fall evening where the world outside fades away, and you're cocooned in warmth by the crackling fire. You light your candle and slowly, the rich, spiced scent of mulberry mingles with the gentle touch of white amber and the deep, woody aroma of rosewood, creating a haven of comfort. Wrapped in your softest blanket, lost in the pages of your favourite book, this fragrance captures the comfort of those tranquil moments when the rain taps softly against the window and time seems to stand still.
fragrance notes: white amber, mulberry, rosewood.
Woodlands
Smells like an early morning walk through a golden forest as autumn settles in. The crisp air carries the scent of blue spruce, as the earthy aroma of moss-covered stones and the grounding warmth of sandalwood wrap around you like a cozy flannel, grounding you in the moment while you step over crunchy leaves. This is the essence of autumn—where the world slows down, and every breath invites you deeper into the season's tranquil embrace.

More Than a Feeling

Take it Easy
