A masterful reinterpretation of Ernesto
With Carmen, Trudon extends the legacy of the iconic Ernesto candle into a more intimate, skin-focused expression.
Renowned for its profound tobacco-leather accord, Ernesto has become one of Trudon’s most emblematic signatures scents. Carmen is not conceived as a literal olfactory replica, instead a new interpretation that preserves the spirit while embracing a more sensual and refined expression.
A faithful evolution, liberated from duplication.
An untamed signature
Bright citrus notes ignite the opening, enhanced by a touch of rum that brings immediate warmth. Tobacco, with soft honeyed notes, that dry down against a noble, textured leather. Energised by ambroxan, tha composition deepens into the rich tones of patchouli, oakwood and labdanum.
An instinctive, confident signature with a freeing trail.
