Create a place of peace and prayer with our Catholic candles
CORDA bridges the sacred and the secular, bringing the faith to everyday moments.
We create and custom blend our signature scents in house and handcraft them into candles through 20+ steps. Complemented with a modern design and sustainable ingredients, these are saint candles like you've never seen, or smelled, before!
The fruit of love and prayer, each candle draws on the richness of our devotions, liturgy, and tradition, as well as the day to day lives and heavenly patronages of holy men and women. May the light of their lives point us to the Light of the World.

Lauds, inspired by Morning Prayer
Throughout the day and night, the Divine Office is prayed around the world.
Morning Prayer, or Lauds, is the first office prayed after rising for the day.
The fresh scents of morning dew and juniper berry call to mind the peacefulness of the sunrise, while bright citrus energizes us for the day ahead.
Fiat, inspired by Our Lady of the Annunciation
This beautiful Marian candle has graceful scents of strawberries and acacia wood, nuanced with notes of blossoms and hints of spices.
This complex but balanced fragrance points to Mary's virginity and motherhood, and her role as the new Ark of the Covenant.
Carpenter Shop, inspired by St. Joseph
On March 19, we celebrate the feast of St. Joseph, Husband of Mary. This just man was a courageous and strong husband, with an obedient and humble heart.
Through the work of his hands, he provided for his family. The rugged scents of leather and sawdust of his candle bring to mind his carpenter's shop, where we imagine Jesus and Mary would have sometimes visited him.
