Battle Cry
These celestial scents of spices, sandalwood, and incense are inspired by St. Michael the Archangel.
Nuanced with notes of bergamot, patchouli, light florals, and musk.
Behind the Inspiration
The scent of strong spices is a nod to the way Michael defends us in battle, while the soft sandalwood recalls his gentler role of accompanying the sick and dying. Notes of incense bring to mind the Mass, reminding us of heaven and Michael’s place as prince of the heavenly host.
St. Michael’s feast day, also known as Michaelmas, is September 29.

You’ll get the cleanest, longest, and safest burn from your candle with a few simple steps:
- Always trim the wick before lighting to 1/8”–1/4”
- Burn until the melted wax reaches edge to edge, or very nearly, to reduce tunneling
- Burn only up to 4 hours at a time
- Always keep a burning candle in sight, away from flammable materials, out of drafts, out of reach of pets and children, and on a heat-safe surface
- Keep out of direct sunlight
Battle Cry is exquisite, highly scented, and conducive in placing oneself in the presence of God.
I love, love, love the candle ‘Battle Cry’. I light it while I am getting ready for bed. It transforms my bedroom into a heavenly space to connect with God in prayer, relax, and rest stress free!

I gifted the Battle Cry candles and walnut lids to friends of mine and they loved it! The candles smell great, and the walnut lids add a nice touch of color. Very cool.
Wow! 🤩 Corda Candle is the highest quality. It smells so fresh and new. The packaging is impressive with extra thought put into my experience. LOVE 💗 CORDA 🕯️
The scent of Battle Cry is very calming and pleasant. Enjoy having this candle year round, but especially in September for St Michael's feast day. Always great quality. Orders arrive well packaged and often very quickly.
Battle Cry smells so nice, it’s comforting and reminds me of being in church. It doesn’t get any better than that!
Battle Cry
As a Lay Cistercian associated with Our Lady of the Monastery of the Holy Spirit the Corda candles have become an important part of my daily contemplative prayer life. I purchased the Battle Cry candle as a gift for a friend who has a deep devotion to St. Michael and is making Final Promises to God and the LC Community.
The scent is a soft, tempting blend that is intriguing. It’s perfect for women and manly enough for men. Love the use of non toxic ingredients and environmentally friendly packaging too.
