Eau de Cartier Zeste de Soleil, the vivacity of exotic freshness
Moreover, the male sex was still content with this product for a long time as a perfume, while women had already tasted the art of perfumery in its own right. Today, as if to plunge us back into history and offer us a part of the heritage of this unique know-how, Hermès is delivering a collection of Colognes to us . Now cult, its olfactory blend is now enriched with a new essence called Eau de Citron Noir.
Eau de Citron Noir, a fresh and smoky fragrance
As the name of this new fragrance suggests, Eau de Citron Noir places black lemon at the center of its composition. Coming from Iran, this citrus fruit is a condiment traditionally used in Persian cuisine or in the design of spicy blends. Basically, it is a lime put in brine and dried in the sun. As it dries, its fine bark takes on a brown color, which earned it its name. On the nose, its scent is quite fresh, powerful and concentrated. It is also sweeter than that of a traditional lemon and in this sense is slightly reminiscent of the breath of clementine. It takes on subtle smoky and fermented notes which give it a metallic touch. However, it is all this complexity that we find in Hermès Black Lemon Water. This juice is characterized by a striking liveliness associated with a certain depth. The result is a singular and somewhat paradoxical composition.
The famous collection of Colognes d'Hermès
Eau de Citron Noir is part of the iconic Eaux de Cologne Hermès collection. This olfactory blend was initiated in 1979 with the creation of the very first perfume signed Hermès. The brand had the idea of ​​reinterpreting the scent of the Eau de Cologne of yesteryear. It was a question of preserving its freshness and authenticity while adding an additional touch of tenacity. The first Hermès Eau de Cologne was then renamed, in 1998, Eau d'Orange Verte. A true icon of perfumery, it was then succeeded by many other perfumes of the same style forming a veritable collection rich in many flavors. Eau de Citron Noir is an immersion in the history of Hermès, which dares for the very first time a fresh and smoky scent.
The lantern bottle of Eau de Citron Noir
Like all the perfumes in the Eaux de Cologne d'Hermès collection, Eau de Citron Noir is presented in the brand's iconic lantern bottle. It is a slender and refined glass column, with a simple and refined design. For the record, know that this container is inspired by the shape of the lanterns of the carriages of yesteryear. Indeed, as a former saddler and harness maker, Hermès has always been very close to the equestrian world and that of travel. Today, this bottle is characterized by a pretty blue color. The whole is topped with a black screw cap offering generous gestures.
