KOT Candle: Fischersund × Farmers Market

Sale price$72.00

Hand-poured in Reykjavík in natural soy wax, the KOT candle carries the same composition as the eau de parfum — cedarwood and cypress, suede, fresh hay, and a final unexpected note of marzipan. Part of the first collaboration between Fischersund and Farmers Market.

Two Icelandic families who have spent years working from the same source material — Icelandic landscape, Icelandic light — made a scent together for the first time. KOT is fire, slowness, and time spent outside.

Fischersund is the family-run perfumery and art collective on Reykjavík's oldest street, where Jónsi and his sisters have been building fragrance out of memory since 2017. Farmers Market is the Icelandic design house founded in 2005 by designer Bergthora Gudnadottir and musician Jóel Pálsson, known for natural fabrics and a Nordic sensibility that reads equally at home on a mountain trail and in a city apartment.

KOT is what happens when they meet.

The scent

Cedarwood and cypress root the fragrance in something earthy and immediate. Suede layers in warmth. Fresh hay opens up the composition with a clean, pastoral quality — dry grass in cool air. Marzipan arrives last, unexpected and sweet, the way a memory comes back when you least expect it.

Burning changes the balance. The wood comes forward and the hay softens, and the room holds the scent long after the flame is out.

Notes: Cedarwood, cypress, suede, fresh hay, marzipan.

The object

Each candle is hand-poured in Reykjavík using natural soy wax, a process that reflects the care both families bring to the objects they make. It's designed to be lit slowly and often. Trim the wick to a quarter inch before each burn, and burn it long enough the first time that the wax pools to the edge.
