Description

Hermessence Osmanthe Yunnan by Hermès is a Floral Fruity fragrance for women and men. Hermessence Osmanthe Yunnan was launched in 2005. The nose behind this fragrance is Jean-Claude Ellena. Top notes are Tea and Orange; middle notes are Osmanthus and Freesia; base notes are Apricot and Leather. Created in 2004 by Jean-Claude Ellena, Hermessence is a collection of unique fragrances conceived as olfactory poems using perfuming’s most exclusive elements. As sober and intense as Japanese haiku, they reinvent a nature that is as precious as it is unusual, as if rendered by the inspired writing of a composer in search of the new. Enriched each time the perfumer discovers a new country, a language, a culture or simply extraordinary new ingredients, as of today the line consists of eight fragrances, exclusively available in Hermès stores. Osmanthe Yunnan: conceived after a visit to the Forbidden City of Beijing, this is a silky alchemy of osmanthus petals and Chinese tea whose flowers release facets of freesia and dried apricot.The delicate aromas of tea “lead us by the nose to the Imperial Palace...”
