Tuileries Trudon Candle

Floral and fruity chypre

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.

1. In order to get the most out of your candle, burn it until the entire surface of the candle melts.
2. When burned simultaneously, it is recommended to leave at least 30 cm of space between each candle.
3. Do not leave candle burning unattended. Do not set in a draft. Keep away from children, curtains and pets.
4. Should the wick require centering, gently readjust to correct position when the wax is still molten. Allow candle to solidify before relighting.
5. Should any black smoke appear, trim the tip of the wick. It should be clean and no longer than 5mm at all times.
6. Always protect the table or surface on which the candle rests (with a wood or ceramic plate, for example).
7. To protect the glass, always ensure that 0.5 centimeters of unmelted wax remain for Classic-sized candles. L’Intermède and La Grande Bougie are equipped with wick-stoppers and will automatically extinguish once they become visible. (Always leave at least 3 cm of non-molten wax at the bottom)
8. Keep your candle in a dry and temperate environment, between 60 and 80° F.
9. The first use of your candle should occur within the two first months after its reception.
