Turning Nolita into Paris with Cire Trudon

SHARE

There are 18 signature-perfumed candles that cover the floor of Cire Trudon’s New York store. Each handcrafted candle is 100% vegetable wax, meaning they will not smoke and they will not drip and burn roughly 70-80 hours depending on the scent and size. The wicks are 100% woven organic cotton and each candle is fully dyed and placed in a handmade Italian glass. The 18 signature perfumes have 3 layers to them, the head notes, the hard notes and the base notes. The display is exquisite as each candle is placed under a glass covering so one may simply inhale the notes without touching the candle itself. The Manon (fresh laundry) is the most popular in the states, but my favorites are the Prolétaire (Lily o the Valley), the Roi Soleil (Versailles’ Woodworks) and the new Holiday candle Nazareth (Smell of Christmas) which immediately encourages one to skip Thanksgiving all together, after all, it’s just an American holiday.

Also in shop are pillar candles, softly perfumed, colored and delivered in gray and red boxes.

The first collaboration between Cire Trudon and Jun Takashi is Undercover also a pillar candle set. These pillar candles are decorated with the iconic doll of the brand (Grace) and are of exclusive colors in two scents (GIL Apple and the Blooming Hut). The Busts are notably famous of Cire Trudon, cast in light wax sugar, these busts exist in black, white, marble grey and light water green. These busts resemble Marie-Antoinette, Napoleon, Alexandre, Louise and L’Esclave and if left to age the busts will resemble actual marble statues. Cire Trudon also features 6 different room sprays, gift sets and stink bombs (which are small tins containing glass vials that when broken release a beautiful interior scent).
