These uplifting scents of mountain air and pipe tobacco are inspired by St. Pier Giorgio Frassati.

Nuanced with notes of leather, musk, ozone, honey, and smoky tobacco leaf.

Behind the Inspiration

This “man of the beatitudes” is loved for his example of true masculinity. An avid climber, Pier Giorgio was famously photographed smoking a pipe atop a mountain peak. He found God by striving “verso l’alto,” or “to the heights,” as well as “on the ground” in friendship, political action, and care for the poor even in his last days.

St. Pier Giorgio’s feast day is July 4.

Jar candle: 6 oz with a 45 hour burn time
Tealight sampler: 3 oz total with a 18 hour burn time

Each candle is handcrafted with CORDA's proprietary coconut wax blend, custom phthalate-free fragrances blended in-house, and a cotton and paper wick primed with all-natural wax. Learn more about the ingredients here.

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

Smells great!

Really enjoyed this scent!

Beautiful candle

I bought this candle as a gift for my husband. It has a very clean scent. I am very happy with my order!

A Masculine Scent

This was a gift for a male coworker. He commented once how much he liked tobacco scented candles. He very much appreciated the candle and the masculine scent.

Love these candles

Alpine ascent is so very fresh smelling….
Juts lovely!

great product

Love the smell of this beautiful candle

Alpine Ascent

To the heights!

Alpine Ascent has a lovely smell! With the recent canonization of Pier Giorgio Frassati, I bought the tea lights as a gift for my fellow Children's Faith Formation teachers. The candles are lovely and were well packaged. I love getting candles from Corda! I've bought Shower Of Roses many times and am excited to continue to support Anna's business.

Love the majority of your candles-I haven’t decided if I like this one or not. It kind of reminds me of “Endust”. Reminds me of my mom and when she used to dust the house.

Beautiful candle, beautiful scent

I bought this for my husband who loves Frassati but who is also picky about the kind of scents we have in our home. This was the perfect airy but masculine scent and my husband loves to light it at our meals. Such a lovely scent that smells like the beautidul outdoors!

Great gift for a young adult!

I purchased Alpine Ascent as gift for a young adult friend who is a beautiful witness to the Faith as was our newest Saint Pier Giorgio Frassati. She was excited to receive the candle and was enjoying it immensely.
