*Seconds* Shower of Roses

**Seconds** These candles have minor cosmetic blemishes: for example, markings on the glass or a slightly oblong shape. They come in a kraft CORDA box, but will not have the white outer sleeve with the candle name, scent notes, and story behind the inspiration. 

These refreshing scents of rain soaked leaves and rose blossoms are inspired by St. Therese of Lisieux.

Nuanced with notes of tonka bean, petrichor, and soft spices.

Behind the Inspiration
Countless have prayed to this Carmelite nun, popularly known as the Little Flower, because of her famous promise: “After my death, I will let fall a shower of roses. I will raise up a mighty host of little saints.” Her example reminds us to be childlike in our faith and to follow the “little way” to heaven.

St. Therese’s feast day is October 1.

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

After previously ordering a sample set, I was pleased to be able to obtain this Shower of Roses seconds candle. I find that the scent is very helpful in my prayer time. The pleasant rose based scent helps me to focus. It’s not overpowering, but is subtly there in the background, helping me to stay centered. Thank you for making such a wonderful product! The minor flaw that makes it a second in no way affects the candle or the experience.
