Ernesto: Leather and Tobacco In a hotel of Havana, under the fixed sun of the Revolution: the fierce and partisan overtones of leather and tobacco meddle with the paneling’s waxen silence. In the cool dimness, fawn grimaces shimmer along with the smoke of cigars and the barrels of guns. Olfactive Pyramid Head Notes: Bergamot, Grapefruit, Rhum Heart Notes: Oak Wood, Clove, Labdanum, Patchouli Base Notes: Tobacco, Amber, Leather, Moss Shaped out of the same emblematic Trudon-green glass, the 350ml fluted container is adorned with a gold emblem, and allows a 3 to 4-month long, passive diffusion. 350 ml Cire Trudon is best known as the world’s oldest candlemaker still active today. Founded by the Trudon family, it has provided candles to France’s cathedrals and nobility since 1643. Most famously, the Trudons supplied all the candles of Versailles on a daily basis, serving the Sun King, Louis XIV, during his reign. The Paris-based company maintains a serious cult following. Fans rave about the keen attention to craft - the manually poured wax, the precise fragrance formulas, the gorgeous glass vessels handmade in Italy. The quality throughout is unparalleled.
