Trudon at BON TON goods: A Glorious Continuation of Candle-Making Royalty

July 25, 2025

Founded in 1643 in Paris, Trudon is not only the world’s oldest candle maker, but a living symbol of French heritage and refined craftsmanship.

Once the official candle supplier to the royal court of Versailles and the chapels of the French Empire, Trudon has carried the flame of tradition, literally and figuratively, for nearly four centuries.

Today, Trudon’s legacy endures through a collection of luxury candles and fragranced objects that are as historically rich as they are exquisitely made. Each piece is handcrafted in the brand’s Normandy atelier using premium vegetal wax and bespoke scents developed in collaboration with master perfumers.

At BON TON goods, we are proud to present a curated selection of Trudon’s most iconic creations—fragrances and decorative objects that elevate the everyday into something truly ceremonial.

More Than a Candle: A Work of Art

Trudon candles are more than vessels for scent—they are sculptural tributes to time-honored artistry, and to the rituals of candle lighting:

Wax Busts of historical figures such as Napoleon and Marie Antoinette are hand-poured into intricate molds, blending fragrance and fine art into objects of poetic grandeur.
La Cloche, a glass dome originally used to preserve scent, transforms any Trudon candle into a museum-worthy centerpiece while protecting and diffusing its perfume.
La Promeneuse, a one-of-a-kind ambient diffuser, gently melts Trudon’s wax cameos using a tealight, offering a mesmerizing and flameless way to perfume your space.

Each piece whispers of old-world luxury while seamlessly integrating into modern interiors. These are not just home fragrances, they are heirlooms in the making.

A Fragrance House Rooted in Storytelling

From the sacred incense of Spiritus Sancti to the citrus brightness of Reggio, each Trudon scent tells a story inspired by history, nature, or sacred ritual. With layers that unfold like a well-written novel, these candles bring atmosphere, character, and memory to any room.

Whether you're seeking a signature home scent, an extraordinary gift, or an objet d’art that reflects refined taste, Trudon at BON TON goods offers a portal into a world where craftsmanship reigns, and fragrance becomes an act of devotion.
