Trudon - Joséphine - Scented Candle

Trudon invites us on a stroll through the famous gardens of the Château de Malmaison.

The soft light of dawn bathes the flower beds. A light shadow flits through the roses, camellias and irises. With her green fingers, Joséphine awakens the garden's dazzling scents for her imperial destiny.

Joséphine de Beauhernais acquired the Château de Malmaison in 1799 while her husband, Napoléon Bonaparte, was fighting far away in the Egyptian campaign. She spent a fortune renovating the château, which was later taken over by the French government as its headquarters. Her love of flowers, plants and animals led her to create one of the most magnificent gardens in Europe. Her dearest wish was to create ‘the most beautiful and interesting garden in Europe, an example of good horticulture’.

Mehr über Trudon

In 1643, a merchant by the name of Trudon arrived in Paris. Through a fortunate marriage, he became the owner of a shop in the famous Rue Saint Honoré, in the Saint Roch district. In addition to groceries and colonial goods, he sold candles for domestic use and candles for the fair. As time went by, he honed and perfected his candlemaking skills and soon was producing candles of the highest quality.



Shortly before the ascension to the throne of France by the Sun King, Louis XIV, the master established a small manufactory bearing his name, thus laying the foundations for a long tradition. His son Jacques continued his father's craft with the same passion and commitment to quality, and in 1687 his outstanding skills led to his being invited to the Court of Versailles, where he became the King's purveyor. In 1719, the Maison Trudon was officially appointed royal wax manufacturer. The wax and candle business flourished and the company continued for centuries.



Today, Maison Trudon is France's oldest candle manufacturer and has created candles of the highest quality for major houses such as Hermès, Guerlain and Dior, always keeping in mind the traditions of the House of Trudon.
