Restless Heart
These ardent scents of pear and fire are inspired by St. Augustine.
Nuanced with notes of amber, vetivert, musk, and cedarwood.
Behind the Inspiration
A passionate soul, Augustine is often depicted with a heart on fire. He spent many years wandering down false paths, including stealing pears with his friends simply to do what was wrong. But as God drew his restless heart, Augustine came to find the true good he had been seeking, and as theologian and bishop gave his life to sharing it with others.
St. Augustine’s feast day is August 28.

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

This is another wonderful Corda candle! I have purchased several; many for myself and several as gifts. The scent is amazing and burn time is fantastic.
Thanks again for a great candle!!
Love these candles.
In a secular world it’s nice to be able to gift something meaningful and help a faithful small business!
I purchased this candle for a fund raiser. I chose St Augustine because I would like to offer up prayers for a little boy with the same name. The scent is beautiful and I will definitely purchase from CORDA again. Thank you for this lovely ministry. God bless you
My family and in-laws LOVE these candles! I have stopped buying any candles other than these. They last a long time and even when the wick burns out, the scent still remains and the leftover wax can still be set out!
I say a prayer to St. Augustine and St. Monica for intercession, before I light this candle. The fragrance really soothes the soul. There hasn't been a scent from CORDA that I haven't loved. Thank you CORDA!
I ordered 4 candles and a sampler of other scents- I love them all. The Restless Heart is lovely - it will be difficult to choose who to gift these to or if I selfishly keep them to myself! Thank-you for such beautiful candles - each with a beautiful scent and title in remembrance of a special saint. I love especially the Padre Pio candle.
This is my second order of Anna’s candles. I bought this round for my aunt who is going through chemotherapy. I felt she would find comfort in praying with our Blessed Mother and also because the scents are not overpowering. I felt they were perfect for someone who is nauseated from chemo. We love these candles!
This "Restless Heart" candle was a blessing. We gave it as a baptismal gift to our grandson, Augustin, yesterday, and everyone loved the scent, commenting that they'd never smelled anything more beautiful. It was packaged so well and delivered so quickly that I have ordered 2 more as special gifts and a set of tea lights for myself!
God bless you, and thank you for your vocation!
