CIRE TRUDON
AT THINK SILLY STORE HONG KONG
Appointed by French Royalty in the 18th Century and the oldest candle maker in history, Cire Trudon has already been introduced by THINK SILLY WEB MAG previously. The sophisticated scents originated three hundred years ago are finally available at THINK SILLY STORE in Hong Kong.
Apart from over ten ‘Bougies’ ($580) re-designed by the current designer Ramdane Touhami, such as French bread scent ‘Revolution’ and Marie Antoniette dream garden scent ‘Trianon’, the 2.8kg (6.8 pounds) ‘La Grande Bougie’ ($2,280) and ‘Coffrets Trudon’ ($780) (composed of three 120g Bougies candles packaged in a volume-book-like gift box) are also available now.
Specially introduced are sculpture-like ‘Bustes de Cire’ ($420 – $780), referencing historic figures such as Napoleon and Marie Antoniette ; ‘Cierge Camée’ ($380 – $550), multi-coloured scented and unscented pillar candles; ‘Cierge Imperial’, oversized candle with Napoleon emblem and the only birthday present Napoleon gave to his new born son ($550).
