Description
THE BRAND
Parfumerie Trudon is the world’s oldest active candlemaker, founded in 1643. During the reign of King Louis XIV, the Trudon family supplied the Palace of Versailles with candles daily — a craft that today carries over three centuries of tradition and excellence. Every Trudon candle is handcrafted in France, combining authentic raw materials with timeless fragrance compositions ranging from floral and oriental to fresh and aromatic accords.
DETAILS
Ernesto is an evocative tribute to revolutionary Havana — bold, brooding and deeply cinematic. Set in a sunlit hotel room thick with the scent of cigars and aged wood, this luxury scented candle captures the fierce, partisan spirit of an era through the rich language of leather and tobacco.
The fragrance opens with the bright, citrusy freshness of bergamot, grapefruit and a hint of rum — an immediately captivating introduction. The heart deepens into oak wood, clove, labdanum and patchouli, building a complex and resinous core. The base is where Ernesto truly reveals its character: tobacco, amber, leather and moss settle into a long-lasting, smouldering finish that lingers well after the flame is extinguished.
Ernesto is one of Trudon’s most iconic and celebrated scents — a powerful statement for those drawn to dark, sophisticated fragrances with character and history.
