Northern scandinavian, here.
This depends on where specifically. Near the ocean it’s nit that cold at the moment (well, depends what you’re used to, I guess. I get around fine with t-shirt and a light jacket. Temp varies between 5C and 15C nowadays.
But in general, I suggest you bring a sweater and some woollen socks, and a jacket that can handle rain/slush/snow. Staying dry means staying warm.

Don’t forget to bring your Christmas wish list for Santa in Rovaniemi then.

In that case you can expect relatively little humidity. While the cold will feel biting on your skin, it won’t be that bad, provided you stay layered and dry. Avoid sweating, or this will change!
If you’re shoveling snow, dress down once you get your blood pumping.
