Since the creation of fragrances has been added to the history of Hermès in the 1930s, the quintessential Parisian house hasn’t stopped evolving. The olfactory adventure officially started in 1951 with Eau d’Hermès, which was composed by Edmond Roudnitska. After working with great names in the world of perfumery, Jean-Claude Ellena became the exclusive perfumer of the house in 2004, diving even deeper in this field. In 2014, Christine Nagel joins the Hermès family and frees her creativity in perfumery.

Like every Hermès scent, the two new additions to the house’s Colognes tell different stories.

After “Eau d’orange verte”, “Eau de pamplemousse rose”, “Eau de gentiane blanche”, “Eau de narcisse bleu” and “Eau de mandarine ambrée”, Ellena creates this year “Eau de néroli doré”. In a fusion of essential oils and almost pure alcohol, a free expression is given to the raw materials and the perfumer’s Mediterranean youth. As an ode to the Mediterranean spices, the golden neroli is enhanced with saffron – making for a mix that fills the wearer with immediate, intense and personal pleasure.

Christine Nagel’s scents are not different and tell a story of their own. For her, creating or wearing a perfume is “touching the impalpable in an intimate act, leaving traces that cannot lie.” In a bolder and more unique fresh composition, a vegetal mix awakens new senses through a stem of rhubarb enhanced a refined touch of white musk.

Making this olfactory experience even more exciting, Le Bain Hermès features a Hydrating Face and Body Balm, a Hair and Body Shower, a Hair and Body Foaming Gel, and a Fragranced Soap to fill your bathroom with a one-of-a-kind freshness.
