Scent changes how a room feels faster than anything you can hang on a wall, and the large Nordic Essence candle from VINGA is built around that idea. The fragrance draws on the rugged landscapes of the North, and the wax is 100 percent soy, burning for roughly 32 hours before the jar is empty.

The candle sits in a heavy glass jar measuring 9.4 centimetres tall and 9 centimetres across, a proportion that suits a desk, a shelf or a bedside table without dominating it. When the wax has burned down the jar keeps working as a tea-light holder or as somewhere to drop rings, clips and other small items, which quietly extends the life of the gift. Blue, white and brown finishes are available, and each candle is supplied in a gift box ready to hand over.

Large-format candles are a natural fit for end-of-year client gifting, hospitality and real-estate handovers, spa and wellness campaigns, and home-comfort themes in autumn and winter programmes. They also work well as a paired gift for remote employees, where something for the home carries more meaning than another desk accessory.

MerchRepublic brands the jar or the outer gift box with your logo, can build the candle into a curated gift set with other items from our range, and delivers bulk orders across the European Union. Talk to us about run sizes and decoration options and we will put together a costed proposal.
