Will Cire Trudon ever stop trolling me? I'll take a few of the new L’Œuf diffusers, please (and a few rolls of that wallpaper shown in the background at right, while you're at it). In biscuit porcelain with a satin-black turned wood base, available in the Ernesto, Abd el Kader and Cyrnos fragrances, and sold with 300 ml of the fragrance, $350. Below the jump, a video showing the production, and then below that, so long as we're here, a video about Trudon's partnership with the Orne Dark Bee Conservatory.
Very beautiful. But all I can envision is my cats enacting Humpty Dumpty.
I don’t even have a cat, but the first thing I thought of was oh, cat people cannot have this.
Not even sure but that I wouldn’t knock it over within a few weeks.
Not to mention those of us living in earthquake zones!
Lol!
Also reminds me of the famous egg from the movie Risky Business albeit a different material, both are eggs on mantles that can easily lead to lots of trouble 🙂
I’d take some Abd el Kader at any moment of the day and whatever the form or substance it comes in, but 290 euros is a bit much… Not such a lemming after all.. Too bad! ?
In a million years I would not spend this much money on any fragrance item.
Me neither Robin. As much as I love perfume, things have gotten out of hand. Too many houses, too many perfumes from said houses, too high prices for said perfumes. There, I said it!
You have to wonder who are the people who buy these things? Well, I wonder. I think I could make that or a reasonable facsimile – who could I sell it to for that price? Then I go eat chocolate. LOL.
Absolutely.
But…it’s not a big but, but it’s a but…if I *was* going to spend money on luxury home fragrance, at least I’d get a decent scent. In which case, I’m with David Sedaris…it’s Diptyque or Cire Trudon.
I mean, they’re expensive (but not that much more than one of their room sprays) but at least they’re hand-made & hand-finished at every stage as the video shows. There are lots of ‘Luxury’ companies charging almost as much for poor quality mass-produced diffusers fresh off a production line in China.
I’ll take the gold picture frame on the left!
Gold frame would look excellent on blue wallpaper, too.
I’m not a terribly crafty person but I’m pretty sure this could be easily replicated. Wooden candlestick, painted black. Glue a blown out ostrich egg to the top. You can find them online. Fill with room frag of choice and add some reeds. Done!
LOL…I admit I do not want one that badly.
Haha given the porous nature of eggshell & the range of chemicals used in room fragrances I think you’d have to change your ostrich egg every day or at least line it with something very robust or you may also ruin your furniture it’s sitting on – which may cancel out the cost-cutting ?
See! I told you I wasn’t a very crafty person.?
That’s why I leave it to the professionals haha ?
What beautiful bee hives and what a location. I wouldn’t mind pitching my tent there.
