A perfect balanced rose THE PERFUME Grasse is the cradle of perfumery and produces some of the highest quality raw materials in the world, this beautiful region welcomes us all in its embrace of precious flowers and ageless aromas. The “ Maître Gantiers ” manufactured gloves, fans and other perfumed accessories for the Royal Houses of Renaissance Europe . In 2018, UNESCO accredited the Art of Perfumery in Grasse World Heritage Status in light of their exceptional knowledge associated with cultivating ingredients and for the art of perfume composition. Our desire was to create a fragrance which represents the history and unique craftmanship of Grasse enabling everyone to enjoy the quality and true greatness of the art of French perfumery. To achieve this, Gian Luca Perris selected a protagonist of suitable grandeur: « In Grasse there were several noteworthy candidates to be the lead creative in this project!

Terre d'Hermes Parfum by Hermes

Minimalist and elegant Opens with bitter sweetened orange, with something like sugar but that remains bitter like the edt and accompanied by grapefruit. The orange is present at all times as the main protagonist and changing nuances as they change the notes that accompany it. It's an incisive and very bitter fragrance until the final phase of the drydown in which it loses enough of that bitterness to become more woody, dense and sweet spiced imo thanks to the benzoin. It has a mineral phase in the middle phase that makes it less earthy than its sister with edt concentration. It's minimalist and elegant. Long lasting and moderate projection. Notes: Grapefruit, Orange, Flint, Woodsy Notes, Oak Moss and Benzoin. Salida con naranja algo dulce, como azucarada pero que se mantiene amarga como el edt y acompañada por pomelo. La naranja está presente en todo momento como protagonista principal y van cambiando matices segun cambian las notas que la acompañan. Es una fragancia in...

Le Jardin de Monsieur Li by Hermes

Imagen
A good, clean, fresh, intimate and minimalist scent that is great for warm weather and could evoke you to a relaxed state of calm and peace walking in an oriental flower garden Citrus opening with Kumquat (Chinesse orange) that is similar to tangerine, very refreshing, bracing, herbal and with some greenness. The floral accords appears right away at the start of the drydown. I perceive white flowers from the jasmin that mixed with the "orange" seems like an strange orange blossom. A musky environment mixed with green are the main characters of the drydown as well as an aquatic, fresh and bracing vibe in it. A good, clean, fresh, intimate and minimalist scent that is great for warm weather and could evoke you to a relaxed state of calm and peace walking in an oriental flower garden. It's pretty linear but very well blended and doesn't try to do nothing that it's not meant to do as it's good in its simplicity. The longevity is good but the sillage is below t...

Elixir des Merveilles by Hermes

Fantastic and completely unisex even though it's labelled as "women fragrance"   A creamy, sweet and balsamic orange is the main character in this very well executed composition by Jean-Claude Ellena. It's thick/dense but at the same time has lightness, a bold and diverse creation which gives prominence to resins and woods. Spicy, dried citrusy, confited opening that gives pass to a drydown in which the orange (rather its peel) still is the main character but sinking into a resins, amber & woods sea resulting in an intense, spiced and aromatic, sweet orange that even has a vanillic vibe sometimes. Fantastic and completely unisex even though it's labelled as "women fragrance". Notes: Peru balsam, Vanilla sugar, Amber, Sandalwood, Tonka Bean, Patchouli, Siam resin, Caramel, Oak, Incense, Orange Peel and Cedar. Elixir des Merveilles de Hermes. Una naranja cremosa, dulce y balsámica es la principal protagonista de esta muy bien ejecutada composición...
