SKANDINAVISK When you think of Scandinavia, the concepts of simplicity, sobriety and naturalness pop to mind spontaneously. This land evokes suggestions rich in charming, such as the combination of light and night, the architecture immediately recognizable, the warmth of wooden buildings and the magical atmosphere of silent snow-covered landscapes. Simple and direct images, like the inhabitants of these regions. It is no coincidence that the story of this brand originated by two English friends, Shaun and Gerry, who fell in love with two blond Scandinavian girls 15 years ago and since then never left. Is there a more simple and attractive description? At the base of the brand, created in 2013, there is therefore a love story and the founders themselves do not hide it. Because when we talk about this feeling, we also talk about the light that surrounds your loved one when you contemplate it. And it is exactly the light of the products the main focus of SKANDINAVISK, with its scented candles, elegant, stylish and unique. "At night a candle's brighter than the sun" Sting sang in one of his famous hits from the eighties. A verse that is well suited to the creations of Shaun and Gerry, who have turned their products into a real lifestyle. There is no better place than Scandinavia to appreciate the atmosphere created by the flame of a candle in the long Nordic nights. Seeing is believing: one of the most important Swedish traditions is celebrated at dawn on December 13, when thousands of little girls with a white robe and a lighted candle in their hands illuminate the darkness of winter to celebrate Saint Lucia, the patron of light. Scandinavian countries, due to their long winter nights, are the world's biggest candle consumers. In fact, Scandinavian people often prefer the light of a candle than the cold and anonymous artificial light of a lamp. Shaun and Gerry, living respectively in Denmark and Sweden, have been able to understand how important is the intimacy, comfort and atmosphere in the Scandinavian home, and that is probably the moment when the candle has produced the spark for the creation of their business. With their brand, they have tried to capture that indescribable sense of spirituality that in Danish they call "hygge", and in Norwegian is "kose", in Finnish "lӓmpöӓ" and in Swedish is "mys": all words containing untranslatable semantic nuances that only those who live in those regions may feel on their skin. Do they produce just simple candles? No, SKANDINAVISK products are much more than that: they are unique and authentic items that can only be found in those remote latitudes. This is confirmed by the fact that the two founders have developed their brand after 15 years of travelling and exploring impressive fjords, mysterious forests and breathtaking northern landscapes. Because of these experiences, the products by SKANDINAVISK include that "sense of Scandinavia" that gives the title to their elegant catalogue autumn/winter 2015, full of articles with a strong Nordic flavour. With SKANDINAVISK, the candle becomes a design item that perfectly fits in a modern and simple location, but also in wooden rooms with a warm atmosphere. The Scandinavian-style enthusiasts will appreciate in SCANDINAVISK's products the characteristics typical of Nordic design: delicate and elegant colours, subtle and soft curves, eco-friendly and natural materials, balance between innovation and creativity. These articles have always a connection with nature. SKANDINAVISK's scented candles have scents inspired by the four seasons, by the traditions and unique places of the Scandinavian regions. Once you light a candle, you just need to close your eyes to be carried away by the intense feelings triggered by their fragrance. You will find yourself among the fir trees of the Finnish forest, in the cobbled streets of Copenhagen, in a Swedish summer garden smelling like strawberries and roses, or on the top of a Norwegian fjord while breathing the fresh air of the ocean. The style of SKANDINAVISK candles makes them unique in their kind. Each item comes in a glass container with soft colours and elegant decorations, bearing evocative names of Scandinavian origin. A peculiar characteristic of the product, in addition to the pleasant scent, is also its duration that reaches 45 hours. Like many Scandinavian brand, also SKANDINAVISK is sensitive to the issues of ecology and sustainability. All the items by this brand are tested by the FSC (Forest Stewardship Council), a non-profit organization that deals with international forest certification. The wax used for the candles is of natural origin and the wick is 100% cotton. The various scents are produced by a French perfumer that works in Grasse. Over time, the two creators of the brand have made contact with many boutiques in Europe and around the world, with the aim of distributing their products to a wider range of customers. The quality of the brand is demonstrated by the gradual spread of SKANDINAVISK candles in many countries. The first retailer to give confidence to the two Englishmen was the Danish "Stilleben", specialized in interior design and in the realization of ceramic products. From that moment, the expansion of the brand has never stopped, and now the brand can be found in the stores of 26 countries, from Africa to Australia via America.
