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.Brin de Réglisse: a quintessential blend of exquisite lavender wrapped in liquorice, the mischievous reconstruction of an olfactory symbol of the South of France reinvented by the gourmet touch of a ribbon of liquorice. “Dressed in mat black, an magnified lavender, memory and landscape…”
