Glass Vessels Handcrafted by Italian Artisans
Cire Trudon's roots trace back to 1643, when Claude Trudon opened a small manufactory in the same year Louis XIV ascended the French throne. The brand has established its status as a prestige brand, using only select natural ingredients of plant-based wax and beeswax, evidenced by the inclusion of Louis XIV's coat of arms on products as a mark of royal appointment.
The fourth addition to Cire Trudon's "Les Belles Matières" scented candle line, which maximizes the potential of fragrances and materials, is "Estérel," capturing the scent of mimosa growing wild on the Côte d'Azur and elegant gardens.
Mimosa has been known as the representative flower of the Côte d'Azur since it was brought from Australia by British botanists in the 19th century. The candle unfolds with a delicate fragrance, featuring bergamot peel in the top notes, mimosa in the heart, and iris in the base, as if inviting you on a sensory journey.
The beautiful glass vessel, handcrafted by artisans in the village of Vinci, Italy, resembles a champagne cooler and would make a lovely accent for interior decor or a delightful gift to brighten everyday life.
