These somber scents of clay, stone, and stillness are inspired by All Souls’ Day.

Nuanced with notes of ozone, earth, and moss.

Behind the Inspiration
The practice of “memento mori,” or “remember you will die,” is a reminder that one day this life will end and we will stand in judgment before God. Keeping death before our eyes inspires us to live well, for God and others. This candle’s scents recall our future burial and trustful waiting for Christ’s return to raise the dead to life.

The feast of All Souls is November 2.

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

Truly a wonderful gift!

This lovely and special candle was a gift to my mother whose sister, my aunt, recently died. The candle was so wonderful as an enhancement to her dia de los muertos memorial for which she decorates and remembers all who have passed on. The lovely scent and candle was a true enhancement. It will continue to burn throughout the month of November. Thank you for your deeply meaningful work of making and providing these candles!
