For its 380th anniversary, Trudon dives back into history and launches a new collection named Tuileries: the new scent – available in four candle sizes and a diffuser – hints back at the French heritage and the countless stories it holds.

The Tuileries collection finds its inspiration in a rare document kept at the French National Archives: the Gazette des Atours de la Reine. In what seems like an ordinary notebook, countess Geneviève d’Ossun – a French courtier who served as lady-in-waiting and first maid of honor to Marie Antoinette – gathered many fabric samples used to tailor the sovereigns’ many dresses and royal outfits.

The fragrance was conceived as an homage to the rose, the Queen’s favorite flower throughout her life.

Elaborated hand in hand with world class perfumers, Trudon's fragrances are the result of a careful development. Choosing the raw materials, testing the formula in their laboratory, mixing the perfume with the wax are some of the steps that lead the way to a scented candle.

All their candles are handmade in their own factory in Normandy, France. Their fabrication begins by the setup of the wicks. They are set at the bottom of each glass so that they stay perfectly centered. The glasses are then aligned on wooden counters before pouring.

Right after the molten wax is mixed with the perfume, it is poured by hand into the aligned glasses.

When the wax is poured, the wicks are softened due to the effect of the heat and they slightly bend inside the glass. When the wax starts to solidify, the wicks are straightened by hand to ensure that the stay perfectly centered.
