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
I'm not fond of super sweet scents, so I chose the Sweeter Than Wine candle because the combination of Cedar, Pomegranate and Apple sounded like it would be a good balance of smells. I haven't burned it yet, but when I opened it, I could tell it will become a favorite -- the sweetness is subtle, and it is a fresh scent to dissipate the gloominess of being cooped up this winter.
Love this scent! It’s very clean, fresh and a hint of sweetness from the apple. Can’t help but smile when it’s lit in our home. Highly recommend!
This candle never disappoints. I like them all but this one is my favorite and the best gift!
Lovely fruity scent. Got it as a gift for my husband. These candles are super high quality.
This candle from Corda is a true blessing! The scent is full of sweet aroma. It means a lot that it was made by someone who truly understands Catholicism and practices the faith.
I’ve ordered this twice and will probably order again. What a lovely fragrance!

Nice scent, although it is very subtle. Great when a faint scent is wanted. Rich with subtle smell.
This scent is crisp and comforting. Great products and a great way to support small, Catholic businesses.
