Founded in 1643 in Paris, on Rue Saint-Honoré, Trudon is recognized as the oldest candle manufacturer in the world still in operation. During the 17th and 18th centuries, the Maison became the official supplier to the French royal court — a recognition that no other candle manufacturer has ever achieved — and later to Napoleon's imperial court. The historic motto of the house, Deo Regique Laborant ("They work for God and for the King," referring to bees), reflects an identity built around beeswax and artisanal rigor. In 1889, the family's successors received a Gold Medal at the Exposition Universelle in Paris for innovation in wax production. Today, Trudon is also recognized as an Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant, a French title that certifies the excellence of manufacturing know-how.
The 112 Trudon products in the catalog cover the entire range of the Maison: scented candles in various formats — from the classic single wick to three and five wick models designed for larger spaces — room sprays, diffusers, and personal fragrances launched since 2017, developed in collaboration with renowned perfumers. The candles are produced in the workshop in Normandy using plant-based waxes, cotton wicks, and carefully selected fragrances. Each scent is conceived as a narrative reference — historical, literary, or geographical — that precisely and recognizably defines its identity. Those approaching the Trudon world for the first time can start with the classic formats; those already familiar with the Maison will also find collectible formats and personal fragrance lines.
