Julien Pruvost, at Trudon, discusses harnessing the power of scent to elevate every space. Renowned for crafting beautifully designed and fragranced candles, Trudon has been elevating spaces since the 1600s, always aligning with its core DNA of focusing on artisanal excellence and optimal fragrance. It might sound a bit intense, but I wake up early before my wife and children.
I brush my teeth, meditate for about four minutes, take a three-minute cold shower, and follow it up with the Wim Hof breathing method. After that, I do some stretching exercises and finish with a large glass of water. The brand has been around for 300+ years.
Trudon’s identity as a “brand” really started to develop in the mid-2000s. Before that, we primarily focused on making products similar to what our ancestors made, like church candles, candles for lighting, and decorative pieces.

This combination of tradition and authenticity has allowed us to attract a loyal following in recent decades.
