THE CREATION
Eau de Citron Noir, created by Hermès perfumer Christine Nagel, was launched in 2018. An elegant and astonishing freshness that reveals the paradoxes of a widely known and beloved citrus fruit: the lemon. A sophisticated composition full of contrasts.
OLFACTORY NOTES
Cologne Eau de Citron Noir, a citrus and woody fragrance, combines a sharp lemon and woody black tea with the smoky notes of guaiac wood.
THE OBJECT
The iconic lantern bottle is encased in a striking, deep blue. On the orange box, a stripe that mirrors the bottle's color creates an interesting contrast.
THE HERMÈS COLOGNES COLLECTION
Hermès Colognes constitute an infinite and virtuoso playground, exploring the sensuality of materials. They reflect an immediate and generous pleasure that transcends genres, trends, ages, or seasons.
Bottle with removable spray cap.
"A journey through the olfactory universe of citrus notes led me to immerse myself in the vast and surprising world of lemons. Among all the original varieties that caught my attention—citrus caviar, Buddha's hand, Eureka lemon or four seasons...—it was the black lemon, so smoky and with a strong personality, that stood out as the obvious choice."
Christine Nagel
Eau de citron noir offers a unique and paradoxical footprint, such persistent freshness that it poses a challenge of permanence: it is the midday-midnight cologne.
Olfactory notes:
- Black lemon, black tea, guaiac
How to use:
- To prolong the scent, apply your fragrance to the inside of your wrists and behind your earlobes. These pulse points are warmer than the rest of your body, which helps the fragrance evaporate more slowly.
- Applying perfume directly to clothes can stain, damage, and alter the fabric.
