Their most emblematic product, the Carrière Frères scented candles are made in their workshop in Normandy, France. Using exceptional expertise and savoir-faire, each candle is hand-poured and made out of 100% vegetable wax. 

GARDENIA TAHITENSIS – TIARE
The Polynesian tiare, of the Rubiaceae family, is the national flower of Tahiti. Amongst the most famous gardenias, the tiare is deliciously aromatic and a symbol of beauty. Women coat their skin and hair with its essential oil monoï, with glowing effect. The ancient recipe “Mahohi”, obtained from the maceration of tiare buds in Coprah oil, is an essential base of Polynesian medicine. Its tree blooms into immaculate white flowers that contrast with the intense green of its leaves. The tiare’s suave scent is reminiscent of tuberose.

FRAGRANCE
A real invitation to travel, the scent of the tiare flower is recognisable among thousands. Its floral and sweet notes compose a unique perfume with a powerful sweetness, evoking the accents of tuberose.  It is known for:
✓ Helping to fight against fatigue
✓ Its purifying and antiseptic properties
✓ Its calming action.

BURN TIME
The 185g candles will burn for 45-50 hours. Please follow the instructions enclosed with your candle to get the most out of it. 

ABOUT THE BRAND 
In 1884, the Carrière brothers took over the French Royal Wax Manufacturer (now known as Cire Trudon) with the intention to modernise it, while still preserving its historical savoir-faire.  
With the industrial revolution well underway, access to electricity was becoming more widespread, and therefore candles weren’t as much of a necessity as they had been in the past. So, the Carrière brothers came up with a new way to keep candle use alive – candles as decorative objects! They create tapered and pillar candles for aesthetic use, for dinner settings or festivities, and they quickly became popular. At the 1889 Exposition Universelle (which the Eiffel Tower was built for) the brothers were awarded a gold medal for their vision and craft.
Inspired by the discoveries of 18th-century botanists and explorers, the Carrière Frères packaging and fragrances draw upon the natural biodiversity of the plant kingdom. In each and every scented candle or spray, perfume and botanical essences become one: composed like a periodic table, the Carrière Frères line honours scents extracted from herbs, roots, flowers, fruits or trees.
Each candle is made according to ancient expertise and handcrafted in the Trudon workshop in Normandy; the candles’ perfume coming from a blend of natural raw and synthetic materials. Since 2022, each of their candles and botanical palets are formulated with 100% vegetable wax, from European organic rapeseed.
