Candle | SOJA&CO. x Igloofest
SOJA&CO. is proud to unveil an exclusive candle born from a partnership with Igloofest Montreal — an iconic event that celebrates music, winter, and Montreal’s vibrant cultural scene. this collaboration resonates deeply with our team, as Laurence Gaudreau-Pépin, founder of SOJA&CO., is also a DJ under the name Laure Musique. She has previously performed at Igloofest and will be back on stage in Montréal on February 5, 2026
the Wood Fire + Golden Amber candle is inspired by the comforting warmth of Igloofest’s campfires — those iconic gathering spots where festivalgoers warm up between sets. its enveloping scent blends warm spices and smoky notes with a soft amber sweetness, evoking the crackle of burning wood, crisp winter air, and the festival’s vibrant energy
top notes: cinnamon leaf, clove
middle notes: vanilla, bourbon
base notes: amber, wood smoke
whether you’re a devoted Igloofest fan looking to bring a bit of its magic home, or you’re discovering its world through scent, this candle was made for you. a candle that warms, brings people together, and makes you feel the vibe — even far from the stage
candles burning time:
8oz — 50hrs
during the first use, trim the wick to 1/4 inch and allow the candle to burn until the entire surface is melted (maximum 4 hours). trim the wick again before each subsequent use. it is very important to refocus the wick after the use of the candle (when the wax is still melted) to avoid the cracking of the glass.

When music ignites the flame
this candle goes far beyond a simple collaboration. it celebrates the unique energy of Montréal’s winter nights while highlighting a shared passion for music. that passion is also a family story, shared with Laurence’s brother, Benjamin Gaudreau-Pépin, co-owner of SOJA&CO., who develops his own musical projects under the name Oiseau de nuit. through this partnership, the worlds of entrepreneurship and music come together naturally. lighting this candle means bringing a vibration into your space — a shared moment rooted in creativity, culture, and emotion
