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
This candle smells like the Holy Land! I can’t explain exactly why but when I light it, I am brought back! One of my favorite scents of all time: slightly fruity, refreshing, and rich.
Great scent! Fragrant but not overpowering. I would definitely purchase again in the future and consider giving as a gift as well.
A beautiful wedding gift that I was able to leave for the couple in their hotel room on the night of their wedding. The scent captures the beauty of songs of songs perfectly. A lovely wedding/anniversary present.
Lovely, light scent.
I get all my candles from Anna. They are go to gifts and I have them in my prayer area and office.
These candles smell so good and do not diminish air quality due to pure ingredients. The wick trimmer has been a game changer and I’m so glad I purchased it to keep my candles burning properly.
The candle smells great! I really can’t comment much about the nuances and attempt to describe it, but it’s high quality and my wife and I both love it.
Love the scent of each and every candle I purchased. They are high quality and are beautifully packaged featuring a brief explanation of the Saint featured. These candles make a wonderful gift for anyone on my gift list especially family & friends who share the faith. Anna quickly and kindly responded to any questions I had.
Thank you Anna!
This is my absolute favorite candle. I am working through a Song of Songs study and this candle is scented perfectly for this book in Scripture.
Sweeter than Wine is absolutely wonderful. Just like all the other CORDA candles, Sweeter than Wine is the perfect mix of subtle and yet noticeable. I light this candle this when I'm praying at home to remind myself of God's presence or just to freshen up the room after a long day. It is also the perfect gift for my sisters. I will definitely be buying this again :)
