After inviting designers like Kenya Hara (Kenzo Power),... Go
Following in the footsteps of Paprika Brasil in 2006, Brin de Réglisse is the seventh creation in the Hermessence collection. Composed by Jean Claude Ellena, Hermès’s in-house fragrance designer, Brin de Réglisse (“sliver of licorice”) is ‘the story of an odd encounter’. One between a lavender pared down via molecular distillation to create ‘a dry, intense (…) lavender landscape’ and licorice, which garbs the lavender in ‘sensual matte black.’ A fragrance for men and women to share, found only in Hermès boutiques.
Spray 3.4 fl. oz.; Spray with leather sheath 3.4 fl. oz.; Box of 4 ½-fl. oz. travel sprays.
A refined, aromatic lavender strewn with floral notes (including orange blossom) and evolving towards a gourmand but light base of licorice and hay.
You’ll recognize the Hermessence collection’s heavy glass bottle with its top-stitched leather cap. The leather’s hue is called grape, a blend of dark brown and lavender.
