Cire Trudon

Cire Trudon on Chiltern Street

Cire Trudon Marylebone is the London shop of the French candle house Trudon, at 36 Chiltern Street, W1U 7QJ. The company traces its origins to 1643 and describes itself as the oldest candle maker still trading. This shop was its first outside France, and visitors come to buy hand-poured scented candles, perfumed tapers and home fragrance, and to see the full range displayed in one place rather than online.

The space is small and traditional, with glass domes over the candles and coloured tapers set along the walls. Staff can talk through the different scents and explain how the candles are made, which makes it useful for choosing a gift or a first purchase. The shop sits on a quiet stretch of street known for independent fashion and design retailers, a short walk from Baker Street.

What Cire Trudon sells in Marylebone

The core of the range is the classic glass candle, poured by hand and sold in several sizes, alongside seasonal and limited scents. Trudon also makes coloured beeswax tapers, room sprays and other home fragrance items, and stocks the matching glass holders and accessories. Prices reflect a luxury product, and the candles are often bought as gifts.

Because the shop carries the wider collection, it is a practical place to compare scents in person before buying. Customers can smell several candles side by side, which is harder to do through a website or a department store concession. Staff will also gift wrap purchases.

Visiting the Chiltern Street shop

The shop is open Tuesday to Saturday, roughly 10:00 to 19:00, and is closed on Sundays and Mondays; it is sensible to check current hours before travelling. The nearest station is Baker Street, a few minutes away on foot, and Marylebone station is also close. As a single-room shop it suits a focused visit rather than a long browse.

Cire Trudon appears in the wider category of independent Marylebone retailers, and the Chiltern Street location places it among the area's design-led shops. For anyone interested in scented candles or in the history of candle making, the shop is a clear destination, and the staff are willing to explain the products to first-time buyers as well as regular customers.
