« Les belles Matières » by Cire Trudon, a trio of unique candles unfolds : mandarin from Calabria, sandalwood from New-Caledonia, and Indian jasmine.
A geographic odyssey, the collection travels back to the origins of rare perfumes : it delves into the rich hours of botanical discoveries and reveals the genesis of grand olfactory adventures.
Reggio, comes infused with mandarin de Calabria. Brought back from Indochina in 1828, the mandarin-tree has since prospered on the occidental banks of the Mediterranean Sea, from south-western peninsula in Italy.
Tadine, flirts with sandalwood from New-Caledonia. When Englishman Edouard Foxhole discovered sandalwood on the Isle of Pines, in 1840. It was used as a precious ointment for the hair and body. A remedy against incense.
Maduraï, blooms with Indian jasmine. The Duke of Tuscany first brought jasmine in India in 1690, a flower originally from Arabia. Whether fresh or dried, they still play a quintessential role in India’s myths, legends and daily rituals.
