This candle was created for the June Lev Haolam box through a collaboration between Nicole Cohen of Shoresh Body & Soul in Neve Tzuf and Hadar Yaish of Hadar Natural Pharmacy in Nofei Prat. Nicole’s work developed through years of producing natural body products using botanical oils, waxes, and plant derived ingredients from local flora. Hadar entered the field after working in pharmaceuticals, and that background appears in the precision of the formulations and preparation process.

The candle is poured with soy wax and scented with lavender and lemongrass essential oils. Lavender introduces a dry herbal scent associated with rest and evening solitude, while lemongrass sharpens the fragrance with a brighter citrus edge. As the wax warms, the aroma disperses gently and gradually through the room..

The candle was produced in measured batches by women whose work honors the practical knowledge of oils, wax temperatures, scent balance, and preparation methods. It belongs naturally in the places where homes settle into themselves at the end of the day: beside a kitchen table, near a bookshelf, or at the corner of a bedroom after nightfall.

“The soul of man is the lamp of the Lord.”
