Trudon
One of the most prestigious French candlemakers, Trudon stands as a testament to centuries-old craftsmanship. Their collections are created using the finest ingredients to evoke atmosphere and memory through their signature scents.The atelier's origins trace back to 1643, when Claude Trudon established his workshop on Rue Saint-Honoré in Paris during Louis XIV's reign. From these modest beginnings emerged a refined legacy as Trudon grew to become one of France's most distinguished manufacturers. Their pure-white beeswax candles once illuminated the halls of Versailles and France's grandest cathedrals, earning them the position of official suppliers to the royal court through the monarchy and later to Napoleon himself.
This heritage manifests through today's collections — still handcrafted with the utmost care, from hand-blown glass vessels to intricate scents created by master perfumers, Trudon candles are beautifully designed and fragranced for the home. Their work embodies quiet luxury, layered through each considered detail that adds to the rich history of Trudon that continues without falter.

• In order to get the most out of your candle, burn it until the entire surface of the candle melts.
• To preserve the fragrance, do not burn your candle for more than 2 hours at a time during the first third of the candle and 1 hour at a time during the remaining.
• Do not leave candle burning unattended. Do not set in a draft. Keep away from children, curtains and pets.
• Should the wick require centering, gently readjust to correct position when the wax is still molten. Allow candle to solidify before relighting.
• Should any black smoke appear, trim the tip of the wick. It should be clean and no longer than 5mm at all times.
• Always protect the table or surface on which the candle rests (with a wood or ceramic plate, for example).
• Do not burn your candle all the way down. Always leave at least 5 mm of non-molten wax at the bottom.
• Keep your candle in a dry and temperate environment, between 60 and 80° F.
• The first use of your candle should occur within the two first months after its reception.
