Ernesto Scented Matches
From Trudon
In a hotel in Havana, under the fixed sun of the Revolution: the fierce and partisan overtones of leather and tobacco meddle with the paneling’s waxen silence. In the cool dimness, fawn grimaces shimmer along with the smoke of cigars and the barrels of guns.
Ernesto Guevara, better known by his pseudonym “Che Guevara” or “El Che”, was born in 1928 in Argentina. A revolutionary and politician, he was one of the symbols of the Cuban Revolution alongside Fidel Castro. At times a great romantic, he was also a cigar lover, believing that smoking them was his “only vice” and a gift from heaven.
Notes
bergamot, grapefruit, rum, oak wood, clove, labdanum, patchouli, tobacco, amber, leather, moss
FYI
At Trudon, matches are an essential part of the ritual. In one crack, it ignites the wick, surprises the shadow, and gives life to light. Delicately perfumed, it signs the prologue for some of the stories behind the candles. Elegant, long, and delicate, asleep in their illustrated boxes, they patiently wait for their destiny. If the box is left slightly open, they will slightly scent, in their sleep, a drawer, a cupboard or a study.
