Hermès Hermessence Cuir d'Ange Eau de Toilette, 100ml at John Lewis & Partners

Cuir d'Ange offers the softness of leather, like a promise hovering over the skin.

\"For a long time I’d wanted to reveal the importance I attach to literature, and how it corresponds to perfume. More significantly, I wanted to evoke my discovery of the work of Jean Giono. Two words from a passage in Jean le Bleu came back to me: 'cuir d’ange' - angel leather. Using the smells that are my words, I wanted to write a poem to rekindle the love duet between leather and the skin. Its softness and lightness, its tension and caress. Heliotropes and hawthorn, leather and musk.\" - Jean-Claude Ellena.

Fragrance notes: leather, hawthron.
