Balmain - Candle 3kg

BALMAIN CANDLE

Cire Trudon is the world’s oldest and most revered candle manufacturer, renowned for its rich and royal narration, the strength of its legacy and its genuine commitment to quality, with nearly four centuries of expertise unrivalled in candle manufacturing, showcased through historic moments in French history.

Founded in 1643, the official Royal Manufacturer to Louis XIV, Louis XVI and Napoléon Bonaparte has surpassed several political and industrial revolutions during its time including the arrival of electricity, neither of which ever blighted the candle maker’s existence.

Revived in 2007 and taking the name ‘Cire Trudon’, the brand is a specialist in the creation of the finest perfumed candles in existence, enlisting renowned noses to design scents, each conveying a piece of the Cire Trudon and French history, capturing spaces and times reminiscent of strong feelings and powerful imagery.

Skilful and demanding, each candle is still dripped and crafted by hand, perpetuating a luxury manufacturing style which continues to draw talent from its masterful heritage and its founder and never ceasing to innovate.

Inspired by an in-depth history and fascinating traditions, the candle’s pure and all-natural formulations have transitioned from 100% beeswax to blended wax paste made of vegetable substances, forming a unique blend, miscible with any fragrance, to guarantee the best possible burn and olfactory experience.

Developed by the historic fashion house's creative director, Olivier Rousteing, in partnership with Emilie Bouge, the offering is an evolution of Trudon's best selling scent, Emesto. Ernesto has long been Rousteing's favourite Trudon scent, forming a key ingredient of the distinctive ambience found within his office, home as well as the Balmain boutiques across the globe. Bouge concocted an expert floral and feminine flourish for Ernesto's masculine notes, relying on the mysterious and distinct touch of black rose in order to create an ideal olfactory reflection of the twenty first century Balmain brand. The unique glass vessel with its bold stripes, references one of the brands signature runway themes - his modern and luxe take on the traditional French sweater. The label is printed in gold foil and applied by hand.Top Notes Atlas Cedarwood, Java Nutmeg Heart Notes Leather, Spices, Black Rose, Moss, Tobacco Base Notes Patchouli, Cistus, Musk
