Besides once providing soothing aromas for the Sun King, Louis XIV, the luxury candle offers a high burning time of up to 65 hours that you won’t find with standard candles. Each candle also comes poured into an elegant glass holder with gold details making it display-worthy coffee table decor. Its designer look and materials don’t come cheap though — the standard price for a Cire Trudon candle is around $125 — and that’s just for the classic size. If you go any bigger, you’ll easily find yourself in the $600 range.
