TRUDON Alabaster Vesta 270g

Established in the 17th century, Cire Trudon is the oldest candle maker in the world and was responsible for perfuming the persons – and the palaces – of the French monarchy (until Napoleon staked his claim to the country and its première candle creators). Meet The Alabasters, the latest in a long line of iconic candles, sculpted in Spain out of a single block, these truly are a one-of-a-kind creation.

Replacing the traditional green-glass is delicate alabaster, these candles are not only luxurious scents for your space, but make for stunning sculptural centrepieces (complete with a matching top).

Exclusive to The Alabasters range, Vesta embodies a luminous halo and a feeling of clarity. Named for and inspired by the asteroid discovered in 1807 — as well as the Roman deity whose presence was symbolised by an eternal flame — this delicate candle suggests a luminous appearance. Building on a fruity aroma of rose, freesia and jasmine, this softens into a balmy, musky base to create an overall fruity chypre accord. Green notes of moss and mandarin add a luminous complexity to this fresh yet floral scent, mirroring the transparency of the sculptural alabaster container it's held within. The ultimate interior accessory, this balances the art of fragrance with covetable sculptural prowess.
