BALMAIN AND TRUDON ANNOUNCE A NEW COUTURE EDITION OF
THE BALMAIN - TRUDON CANDLE

Balmain and Trudon are happy to announce a special, limited-edition version of the popular
Balmain - Trudon candle, with the packaging and glass container temporarily adopting a warm,
crimson tone. Perfect to start this new year on a couture note.

Since it was first introduced over a year ago, the Balmain - Trudon scented candle has become one of
Balmain’s most popular collaborations. Developed by the historic fashion house’s Creative Director,
Olivier Rousteing, in partnership with fragrance house Robertet perfumer Emilie Bouge, the offering is
an evolution of Trudon’s best-selling Ernesto candle. Which makes perfect sense, since the Ernesto has
long been Rousteing’s favourite, forming a key ingredient of the distinctive ambience found within his
office, studio and home, as well as the interiors of Balmain boutiques across the globe. Bouge
concocted an expert floral and feminine flourish for Ernesto’s masculine cedarwood, gunpower and
cigar notes, relying on the mysterious and distinct touch of a black rose, in order to create the ideal
olfactory reflection of Rousteing’s 21st century Balmain.

Bouge’s adept twist on Rousteing’s preferred scent is not the only element of the Balmain - Trudon
candle that channels the unmistakable spirit of today’s Balmain. The unique glass container, with its
bold stripes, references one of Rousteing’s signature Paris runway themes: his modern, luxe takes on
France’s traditional marinière sweater. In addition, to best reflect Balmain’s long couture heritage, the
candle’s label has been printed in gold foil and hand-applied directly upon the glass. Other gold-foil
logos—of both the house of Balmain and house Trudon—decorate the top and sides of the candle’s
chic, rectangular packaging.

The special limited-edition Balmain-Maison Trudon candle is available at KENS Apothecary Online
www.kensapothecary.com.my or offline stores at Bangsar Shopping Centre, Bangsar Village II,
The Gardens Mall and Sunway Pyramid Shopping Mall.

Available in two sizes—Classic (270g) and La Grande Bougie (2.8kg) .
