Sweeter than Wine
These amorous scents of cedar, pomegranate, and apple are inspired by the Song of Songs.
Nuanced with notes of clove, florals, balsam, patchouli, and musk.
Behind the Inspiration
This love poem at the heart of the Bible reveals to us the heart of God, who pursues us as lover and bridegroom. Here the nuptial love between man and woman becomes an image of God’s own love for the world.
In the poetic imagery of the Song, pomegranate refers to the bride, apple to the groom, and cedar to both.
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
Perfect for my Blessed is She Lenten Study titled New Wine! It was offered at a perfect time while studying a portion of Song of Solomon! The scent is lovely and softly sweet, subtle.
Fantastic Valentine's or anniversary gift! Brings you to the wedding halls of Cana :)
Absolutely love this scent. Light and pleasant.

Although I have not yet burned this candle the smell of it is so lovely! I can definitely smell the apple but the cedar is faint to me. It is not my favorite but it is so unique it’s hard to beat. Great job on putting these unique scents together!
The scent of this candle is wonderful. It's not overly strong, but enough to fill the space we need it to fill. I will definitely be buying from CORDA in the future.
Smells very nice
I received the Valor and Grace candle for Christmas, and the scent was amazing! So pure and rich! So when I wanted to send two new candles to two friends, I confidently picked out candles that sounded delicious even though I couldn't smell them online. When they arrived, I was not disappointed. Fiat and Sweeter Than Wine = YUM!
I've realized over the years that most candles are not designed for my smallish, not-open-concept house, which makes it a challenge to find scents that don't fill the space in 5 minutes with the Smell of Overwhelm. Also, I am very sensitive to scents of any kind. I first tried Sweeter Than Wine as part of a sampler of tealights I ordered, and I loved it. The true test is always the full-sized candle, and though I bought it with a little trepidation, but it turned out to be perfect. I have ordered it twice now and am so glad to see that it is available more than just during February, so I don't have to stock up! It is fruity, but not so sweet as to be cloying. It definitely scents my entire space, but not to the point of being the only thing you can smell. Highly recommend.
I have purchased many of their candles & the scents are on point. Love these candles! I won’t buy them anywhere else.
