Fiat
These graceful scents of strawberry and acacia wood are inspired by Our Lady of the Annunciation.
Nuanced with notes of blossoms and hints of exotic spices.
Behind the Inspiration
At the moment of her “fiat,” the Blessed Virgin Mary became also the Blessed Mother. The strawberry plant signifies this mystery, as it both blossoms and fruits at the same time. Acacia wood points to Our Lady as the new Ark of the Covenant, since she carried God in her very self.
The feast of the Annunciation is March 25.

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
I love love all the candles I have bought from Anna through the last few years!!
Because I belong to a Divine Will prayer group, I chose our theme "Fiat", 'Thy Will Be Done'. The strawberry scent is "berry nice". I may choose Immaculata next time.
I received my first candle as a gift and love the idea of your company. Very unique and very Catholic. That's what drew me.
I was given a gift card to Corda from my niece. I ordered Fiat because strawberry is my all time favorite. I love it!! Some candles have scents so strong they are unpleasant. Fiat is a true strawberry scent yet gentle and soothing.
And the bonus is the company is Catholic! I try to support a company that promotes our faith. I am very happy with my purchase.
Every Corda candle is unique. Fiat is fittingly named in honor of Mother Mary. It’s peaceful beautiful aroma will fill your home will joy.
LOVE this candle! The scent blends beautifully with a sweet strawberry note mixed with woody notes. I enjoy displaying the candle on our dining room table.
I ordered several corda candles, a large morning prayer candle and tea light assortments. All smell magnificent and I would highly recommend these candles. I will definitely order again and give as gifts as well. Thank you for making such a superb product!
Thank you!
I first heard about Corda from an episode of The Girlfriends Podcast (Danielle Bean). Anna spoke with such inspiration that I decided to go on her website and order.
The candles are beautifully packaged and the scents are truly inspirational.
I purchased"Lauds" and the scent brings an air of peacefulness. I also purchased "Fiat" and that scent brings an air of surrender to Our Lady.
I will definitely purchase again before Christmas to give to my friends in the parish. Thank you for your handiwork!
The smell is great and the candle lasts a long time.
One of the best smelling candles I have ever purchased!
