TRUDON Abd El Kader Classic Candle - Moroccan Mint

Established in the 17th century, Cire Trudon is the oldest candle maker in the world and was responsible for perfuming the persons and palaces of the French monarchy… until Napoleon expressed his mutual penchant for the country’s première candle creators. With fans from King Louis XIV to ‘Her Madgesty’ Madonna (the singer, not the ‘virgin’) Cire Trudon’s celeb endorsements speak volumes about the quality and luxury of this beautiful brand – and with over 370 years of experience, you’d expect them to have just about perfected their skills by now… A stunning addition to any bedside table, desk or mantelpiece, each candle is housed in hand-blown Italian glass, adorned with their signature gold label stating the motto of the ‘Maison Trudon’; ‘Deo regique laborant’ meaning ‘They work for God and King’ (‘they’ being bees).

Named after the thinker, politician and religious leader who resisted the 19th Century French invasion of Algeria, Abd El Kader evokes the exoticism of North Africa, conjuring the scent of warm, mountain air mingling with spices, tobacco and mint tea in the country’s bustling bazaars.

Top notes of Spearmint, Lemon, Blackcurrant Buds, Apple, Ginger and Clove give way to a heart of Jasmine before the smouldering base of sweet Vanilla – the perfect candle to burn in your boudoir, or to transform your living room into a ‘salon’.

For the latest information, it is recommended to review the ingredient list printed on the packaging of the product prior to usage or consumption.

It is important to trim wick before each use. When using the candle for the first time, keep the candle alight until the entire surface is covered in liquid wax. This should take approximately 1 hour and will ensure a more effective, even burn for all future uses. Depending on where the candle is placed, the 270g has a burn time of 65-70 hours and the 70g has a burn time of 18-20 hours.
