Our jar candle packaging now shares the story behind the inspiration!
Learn more here.
 

These peaceful scents of vetiver, ylang ylang, and jasmine are inspired by St. Dymphna.

Nuanced with notes of galbanum, chamomile, and myrrh.

Behind the Inspiration
When Dymphna’s Christian mother died, her pagan father, the king, fell into mental illness and ordered Dymphna to marry him. Having taken a vow of virginity, she refused and was martyred. She is the patron saint of purity and those suffering nervous and mental afflictions, and her candle’s scents can help calm anxiety.

St. Dymphna’s feast day is May 15.

    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

    Perfect Gift!

    I purchased the Light in Darkness candle for my daughter as a gift for Confirmation. She chose St. Dymphna as her patron saint. The scent combination is fresh and calming! It’s perfect!

    Uplifting scent

    This candle is one of my favorites! Its uplifting scent is light and perfect for perking up my mood. I'm very scent sensitive, so I appreciate the level of fragrance in this candle. It's detectable, but not overpowering. Highly recommend!

    I bought this as a gift after trying it out on my own with the tea light sampler. One of my favorite Corda scents. So uplifting!
