Rigaud Candles

PARFUMS RIGAUD is one of the oldest perfumers and dates back to the early 19th century when King Louis XVIII of France signed a decree giving the sole rights to the RIGAUD family for the manufacturing of a scented Macassar oil.

In 1852, JBF RIGAUD revolutionized the perfumery world by introducing new fragrances into the traditional French perfumery. His creative genius extended to the hitherto unknown field of marketing and in 1868 he conquered the American market where he won the leading place thanks to large scale promotional investment.

Subsequently, the RIGAUD family developed luxury scents such as KANANGA, UN AIRE EMBAUME, VERS LA JOIE, PARFUM TENDRE, etc.......and by the turn of the century had become the leading perfumers of the time.

The RIGAUD candle was created in 1950 by Madame RIGAUD who had the original idea of opening a House Gift shop, offering, of course, environmental fragrances. This is how the RIGAUD candle was born.
