The holiday season calls for indulgence, and there’s no better way to elevate your home—or find the perfect luxurious gift—than with Trudon’s latest creation, Arosa. A standout from the Trudon Holiday 2024 Collection, Arosa blends opulent design with an enchanting fragrance, encapsulating the glamour of Louis XV’s Château de Versailles.
“For Christmas, Trudon builds on the opulence of Versailles: more, it revives the balls and masquerades once held by Louis XV at the Château. At the heart of the festivities, anything becomes possible. Rich guests mingle, celebrating the King’s glory, and the masquerade takes center stage. During the Bal des Ifs, picture the King hiding incognito among the guests in the sumptuous Galerie des Glaces; around him, the party reaches exhilarating summits of splendor!” – Julien Pruvost, Creative Director
Arosa: A Fragrance Fit for Royalty
Crafted by Trudon, the world’s oldest active candlemaker since 1643, Arosa exudes refinement and history. The candle’s scent profile is a masterful combination of delicate rose and warm amber, supported by sophisticated notes of cashmere wood, sandalwood, and vanilla. Designed to transport you to the extravagant masquerades of the Bal des Ifs, Arosa fills any space with a rich, woody bouquet that evokes the spirit of royal festivities.

A Design Worthy of Versailles

Together, these elements transform Arosa from a candle into a masterpiece.
