About Rigaud

The firm of Rigaud, a French company, began in the nineteenth century as a maker of fine perfumes. Monsieur Regaud's wife, a wealthy socialite, opened a fine boutique on the Champs Elysees, and asked one of the Rigaud perfumers to make a candle for her to use in her shop that would give the shop a special ambiance. No concern was given to the cost, as the candle was not intended for sale. The perfumer made what we now call the Cypres (green) candle, still our most popular and intoxicating fragrance.

Customers and friends who came to the shop, all of whom were at the top of French society, wanted to buy the candles and they were sold only to them. From then until now, the fame of Rigaud has spread by word of mouth from person to person and from country to country. 

WAX FORMULA
Rigaud uses "more perfume oil than wax," (unique in the candle industry), and the wax formula they use is much different than the standard paraffin wax used in everyday candles. It is much softer, for example. But the exact formula is proprietary and not available to anyone at this time.


On our first anniversary in 1963 my husband gave me a small Rigaud candle. I have kept it in my bathroom all these years and through several moves, from Illinois to Utah. It still smells as wonderful as it did when it was new. Thank you,
Marge
Dear Chuck and Chuck,

"This is just a letter to say "thank you" for your outstanding service, selection of great merchandise, and your willingness to go out of your way to help your customers. My husband and I discovered your store about ten years ago when we were touring with the New York City Opera National Company and were performing in Madison. We spent a good portion of our per diem check that day in your store, and have continued to order through mail order and now the web over the years. When I recently ordered a Rigaud candle for a Christmas present for him, you kindly gave me a reduced price on a candle that had been in stock for a while. Examples of thoughtfulness and personal service like this are why we will continue to shop with you (besides the fact that we love your stuff!) ".

Many thanks again and all the best for the Holidays,

Linda -
