HERMÈS BEL AMI VÉTIVER Eau de Toilette Spray

THE CREATION
In 2013, perfumer Jean-Claude Ellena signed his own score for Bel Ami, with a new material: vetiver.

THE OLFACTORY NOTES
A leathery, woody composition, Bel Ami Vétiver eau de toilette offers a new tonality by combining intense vetiver, deep leather and sensual cistus labdanum.

THE OBJECT
Inspired by the lanterns of old-fashioned carriages, the bottle is topped with a black cap, echoing the bombshell of horsemen. The label on the back is illustrated with a drawing by Philippe Dumas, a sign that it belongs to the Parfums-Fondateurs collection.

THE PARFUMS-FONDATEURS COLLECTION
The Parfums-Fondateurs collection draws its inspiration from the company's heritage. Each creation concentrates the Hermès imagination in a name, a fragrance and a color. Over the years, Hermès has written the pages of a daring perfumery, born of encounters with exceptional perfumers.

Without upsetting the codes of the past - the same balance, the same assertive elegance, the same classic structure - Jean-Claude Ellena writes his own score for Bel Ami, signed by a new raw material: vetiver. From chypre leather to woody leather: it's the light of warm, woody, green, barely smoky vetiver that now takes over from yesterday's patchouli."
